AMPCO-PITTSBURGH CORPORATION

NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

(in thousands, except share amounts)

 

Overview of the Business

Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation (the “Corporation”) manufactures and sells highly engineered, high-performance specialty metal products and customized equipment utilized by industry throughout the world. It operates in two business segments – the Forged and Cast Engineered Products (“FCEP”) segment and the Air and Liquid Processing (“ALP”) segment. This segment presentation is consistent with how the Corporation’s chief operating decision maker evaluates financial performance and makes resource allocation and strategic decisions about the business.

The Segments

The FCEP segment produces forged hardened steel rolls, cast rolls and open-die forged products. Forged hardened steel rolls are used primarily in cold rolling mills by producers of steel, aluminum and other metals. Cast rolls, which are produced in a variety of iron and steel qualities, are used mainly in hot and cold strip mills, medium/heavy section mills and plate mills. Forged engineered products (“FEP”) are principally sold to customers in the steel distribution market, oil and gas industry and the aluminum and plastic extrusion industries. The segment has operations in the United States, England, Sweden, Slovenia and an equity interest in three joint venture companies in China. Collectively, the segment primarily competes with European, Asian and North and South American companies in both domestic and foreign markets and distributes a significant portion of its products through sales offices located throughout the world.

The ALP segment includes Aerofin, Buffalo Air Handling and Buffalo Pumps, all divisions of Air & Liquid Systems Corporation (“Air & Liquid”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation. Aerofin produces custom-engineered finned tube heat exchange coils and related heat transfer products for a variety of industries including OEM/commercial, nuclear power generation and industrial manufacturing. Buffalo Air Handling produces large custom-designed air handling systems for institutional (e.g., hospital, university), pharmaceutical and general industrial building markets. Buffalo Pumps manufactures centrifugal pumps for the fossil-fueled power generation, marine defense and industrial refrigeration industries. The segment has operations in Virginia and New York with headquarters in Carnegie, Pennsylvania. The segment distributes a significant portion of its products through a common independent group of sales offices located throughout the United States and Canada.

COVID-19

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency caused by a new strain of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and advised of the risks to the international community as the virus spread globally. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. In response, many state and local governments required the closure of various businesses. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, however, issued guidance identifying the Corporation’s domestic businesses as critical infrastructure industries, essential to the economic prosperity, security and continuity of the United States, which provides exceptions to certain closures mandated by state and local governments and permits businesses to continue operations during such an order. Despite the designation and particularly in 2020, the Corporation has had to periodically and temporarily idle certain operations of its FCEP segment and, consequently, furlough certain of its employees in response to market conditions. It also has experienced, and may continue to experience, customer-requested delays of deliveries or, potentially, cancellation of orders.

It is difficult to isolate the impact of the pandemic on the Corporation’s operating results, particularly in relation to the unabsorbed costs resulting from the periodic and temporary idling of certain of the Corporation’s forged and cast roll operations and furloughing of employees. In addition, the Corporation is uncertain of the full effect the pandemic will have on it for the longer term since the scope and duration of the pandemic is unknown, and evolving factors such as the level and timing of the distribution of efficacious vaccines across the world and the extent of any resurgences of the virus or emergence of new variants, such as the Delta variant, will impact the stability of economic recovery and growth. The extent to which the operations of the Corporation, and the operations of its customers, may be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic will depend largely on these future developments. The Corporation may experience long-term disruptions to its operations resulting from changes in government policy or guidance; quarantines of employees, customers and suppliers in areas affected by the pandemic; and closures of businesses or manufacturing facilities critical to its business or supply chains. It may also incur higher write-offs of accounts receivables and impairment charges on its asset values, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. The Corporation is actively monitoring, and will continue to actively monitor, the pandemic and the potential impact on its operations, financial condition, liquidity, suppliers, industry and workforce.

In response to the pandemic, the United States federal government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable

payroll tax credits, deferral of employer-side social security payments and contributions to employee benefit plans, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. Subsequently, on March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan (“ARP”) Act of 2021 was enacted into law, providing the next phase of economic relief as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The ARP Act, among other things, extends the provision relating to refundable payroll tax credits and deferral of contributions to employee benefit plans. Similar programs have been offered in certain of the foreign jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates, including subsidies and reimbursement of certain employee-related costs. While the Corporation has taken, and intends to continue to take, advantage of various provisions of the CARES Act, the ARP Act and other similar programs offered domestically and in foreign jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates, where possible, it is unable to determine what impact those provisions may have on its consolidated financial statements in the future.

Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of June 30, 2021, the condensed consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income (loss) and shareholders’ equity for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, have been prepared by the Corporation without audit. In the opinion of management, all adjustments, consisting of only normal and recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position, results of operations and cash flows for the periods presented, have been made. The results of operations for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, are not necessarily indicative of the operating results expected for the full year.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the annual financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted.

Recently Implemented Accounting Pronouncements

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes (Topic 740). ASU 2019-12 is intended to simplify the accounting for income taxes including removing the exception to the incremental approach for intraperiod tax allocation when there is a loss from continuing operations and income or a gain from other items, such as other comprehensive income, and accounting for franchise or similar tax, and requiring an entity to reflect the effect of an enacted change in tax laws or rates in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The guidance became effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2021, and did not impact the Corporation’s financial position, operating results or liquidity.

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements 

In August 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-06, Accounting for Convertible Instruments and Contracts in an Entity’s Own Equity. ASU 2020-06 simplifies the accounting for certain financial instruments with characteristics of liabilities and equity, including convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. ASU 2020-06 requires entities to provide expanded disclosures about the terms and features of convertible instruments and amends certain guidance in ASC 260, Earnings per Share, relating to the computation of earnings per share for convertible instruments and contracts in an entity’s own equity. The guidance becomes effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2024, with early adoption of all amendments in the same period permitted. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the guidance will have on its consolidated financial statements.

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting. ASU 2020-04 provides optional guidance for a limited period of time for applying generally accepted accounting principles to modifications of contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference LIBOR or another rate that will be discontinued by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The optional guidance is available as of March 12, 2020, through December 31, 2022. To date, no contracts have been required to be modified as a result of reference rate reform. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the guidance will have on its financial position, operating results and liquidity if such an event occurs in the future and the Corporation chooses to avail itself of the optional guidance.

In September 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses, which adds a new impairment model, known as the current expected credit loss (“CECL”) model, that is based on expected losses rather than incurred losses. Under the new guidance, an entity recognizes an allowance for its estimate of expected credit losses and applies it to most debt instruments, trade receivables, lease receivables, financial guarantee contracts, and other loan commitments. The CECL model does not have a minimum threshold for recognition of impairment losses and entities will need to measure expected credit losses on assets that have a low risk of loss. The guidance originally became effective for the Corporation on January 1, 2020, however, since the Corporation met the definition of a Smaller Reporting Company, as defined by the Securities Exchange Commission, the effective date was subsequently revised to fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. The Corporation is currently evaluating the impact the guidance will have on its financial position and operating results. It will not, however, affect the Corporation’s liquidity.

Included in customer-related liabilities are costs expected to be incurred with respect to product warranties and customer deposits. The Corporation provides a limited warranty on its products, known as assurance type warranties, and may issue credit notes or replace products free of charge for valid claims. A warranty is considered an assurance type warranty if it provides the customer with assurance that the product will function as intended. Historically, warranty claims have been insignificant. The Corporation records a provision for product warranties at the time the underlying sale is recorded. The provision is based on historical experience as a percentage of sales adjusted for potential claims when a liability is probable and for known claims.

Changes in the liability for product warranty claims consisted of the following:

Revolving Credit and Security Agreement

On May 20, 2016, the Corporation became a party to a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement, which had been amended periodically. On June 29, 2021, the Corporation entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (the “Restated Credit Agreement”) with a syndicate of banks that provides for a senior secured asset-based revolving credit facility of $100,000, which can be increased up to $130,000 at the option of the Corporation and with the approval of the lenders. The Restated Credit Agreement includes sublimits for letters of credit not to exceed $40,000 and European borrowings not to exceed $30,000. The maturity date for the Restated Credit Agreement is June 29, 2026, and, subject to other terms and conditions of the Restated Credit Agreement, would become due on that date.

Availability under the Restated Credit Agreement is based on eligible accounts receivable, inventory and fixed assets. Amounts outstanding under the credit facility bear interest, at the Corporation’s option, at either (i) LIBOR plus an applicable margin ranging between 2.00% to 2.50% based on the quarterly average excess availability or (ii) the alternate base rate plus an applicable margin ranging between 1.00% to 1.50% based on the quarterly average excess availability. Additionally, the Corporation is required to pay a commitment fee of 0.25% based on the daily unused portion of the credit facility. As of June 30, 2021, the Corporation had outstanding borrowings under the Restated Credit Agreement of $10,131. The average interest rate was approximately 4% for each of the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020. Additionally, the Corporation utilizes a portion of the credit facility for letters of credit (Note 8). As of June 30, 2021, remaining availability under the Restated Credit Agreement approximated $46,700, net of standard availability reserves. Deferred financing fees of $485 have been incurred related to the Restated Credit Agreement and are being amortized over the remaining term of the agreement.

Borrowings outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement are collateralized by a first priority perfected security interest in substantially all assets of the Corporation and its subsidiaries (other than real property). Additionally, the Restated Credit Agreement contains customary affirmative and negative covenants and limitations, including, but not limited to, investments in certain of its subsidiaries, payment of dividends, incurrence of additional indebtedness and guaranties, and acquisitions and divestures. In addition, the Corporation must maintain a certain level of excess availability or otherwise maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.05 to 1.00. The Corporation was in compliance with the applicable bank covenants as of June 30, 2021.

Sale and Leaseback Financing Obligation

In September 2018, Union Electric Steel Corporation (“UES”), an indirect subsidiary of the Corporation, completed a sale and leaseback financing transaction for certain of its real property, including its manufacturing facilities in Valparaiso, Indiana and Burgettstown, Pennsylvania, and its manufacturing facility and corporate headquarters located in Carnegie, Pennsylvania (the “Properties”). Simultaneously with the sale, UES entered into a lease agreement pursuant to which UES leased the Properties from the buyer. The lease provides for an initial term of 20 years; however, UES may extend the lease for four successive periods of five years each. If fully extended, the lease would expire in September 2058. UES also has the option to repurchase the Properties, which it may exercise in 2025, for a price equal to the greater of (i) their Fair Market Value, or (ii) 115% of Lessor’s Total Investment for the Facilities, with such terms defined in the lease agreement. The effective interest rate approximated 8% for each of the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020.

Industrial Revenue Bonds (“IRBs”)

The Corporation has two IRBs outstanding: (i) $7,116 taxable IRB maturing in 2027 and (ii) $2,075 tax-exempt IRB maturing in 2029. The IRBs are remarketed periodically. If the IRBs are not able to be remarketed, although considered remote by the Corporation and its bankers, the bondholders can seek reimbursement immediately from the letters of credit which serve as collateral for the bonds. Accordingly, the IRBs are recorded as current debt.

Commitments and Contingent Liabilities

Outstanding standby and commercial letters of credit as of June 30, 2021, equaled $14,217, the majority of which serves as collateral for the IRB debt. Outstanding surety bonds as of June 30, 2021, approximated $4,000 (SEK 33,900), which guarantee certain obligations under a credit insurance arrangement for certain of the Corporation’s foreign pension commitments.

The Corporation has undertaken a significant capital program to upgrade existing equipment at certain of its FCEP locations which is anticipated to occur over the next three years and cost approximately $25,000 to $30,000. At June 30, 2021, commitments for future capital expenditures, including those associated with the FCEP capital program, approximated $18,400.

See Note 11 for derivative instruments, Note 15 for litigation and Note 16 for environmental matters.

Equity Rights Offering

In September 2020, the Corporation completed an equity rights offering, issuing 5,507,889 shares of its common stock and 12,339,256 Series A warrants to existing shareholders for total gross proceeds of $19,279. The shares of common stock and warrants are classified as equity instruments in the condensed consolidated statements of shareholders’ equity. Each Series A warrant provides the holder with the right to purchase 0.4464 shares of common stock at an exercise price of $2.5668, or $5.75 per whole share of common stock, and expires on August 1, 2025. Stock issuance costs equaled $1,140 and were recorded against the proceeds in additional paid in capital. In 2021, the Corporation received proceeds of $3,217 from shareholders who exercised 1,253,492 Series A warrants, equating to the issuance of 559,551 common shares.

The following summarizes the line items affected on the condensed consolidated statements of operations for components reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss. Amounts in parentheses represent credits to net income. Amounts are after tax where applicable. Certain amounts have no tax effect due to the Corporation having a valuation allowance recorded against the deferred income tax assets for the jurisdiction where the income or expense is recognized. Foreign currency translation adjustments exclude the effect of income taxes since earnings of non-U.S. subsidiaries are deemed to be reinvested for an indefinite period of time.

Derivative Instruments

Certain of the Corporation’s operations are subject to risk from exchange rate fluctuations in connection with sales in foreign currencies. To minimize this risk, foreign currency sales contracts are entered into which are designated as cash flow or fair value hedges. As of June 30, 2021, approximately $2,362 of anticipated foreign-denominated sales has been hedged, which is covered by fair value contracts settling at various dates through January 2022.

Additionally, certain divisions of the ALP segment are subject to risk from increases in the price of commodities (copper and aluminum) used in the production of inventory. To minimize this risk, futures contracts are entered into which are designated as cash flow hedges. At June 30, 2021, approximately 39%, or $2,889, of anticipated copper purchases over the next eight months and 56%, or $577, of anticipated aluminum purchases over the next six months are hedged.

The Corporation previously entered into foreign currency purchase contracts to manage the volatility associated with Euro-denominated progress payments to be made for certain machinery and equipment. As of December 31, 2010, all contracts had been settled and the underlying fixed assets were placed in service. The change in fair value of the foreign currency purchase contract, at the time of settlement, is included in accumulated other comprehensive loss and is being reclassified to earnings (depreciation and amortization expense) over the life of the underlying assets.

14


No portion of the existing cash flow or fair value hedges is considered to be ineffective, including any ineffectiveness arising from the unlikelihood of an anticipated transaction to occur. Additionally, no amounts have been excluded from assessing the effectiveness of a hedge.

The Corporation periodically enters into purchase commitments to cover a portion of its anticipated natural gas usage for one of its subsidiaries. The commitments qualify as normal purchases and, accordingly, are not reflected on the condensed consolidated balance sheet. Purchases of natural gas under previously existing commitments equaled $327 and $715, respectively, for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020. There were no purchases of natural gas under purchase commitments for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, and as of June 30, 2021, no purchase commitments for anticipated natural gas usage are outstanding.

The Corporation does not enter into derivative transactions for speculative purposes and, therefore, holds no derivative instruments for trading purposes.

Gains (losses) on foreign exchange transactions included in other income – net equaled $147 and $633 for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively, and $(1,074) and $(1,098) for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, respectively.

The change in the fair value of the cash flow contracts is recorded as a component of accumulated other comprehensive loss. The balances as of June 30, 2021, and 2020, and the amount recognized as and reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss for each of the periods are summarized below. Amounts are after tax where applicable. Certain amounts recognized as comprehensive income (loss) or reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss have no tax effect due to the Corporation having a valuation allowance recorded against the deferred income tax assets for the jurisdiction where the income or expense is recognized.

The investments held as other noncurrent assets represent assets held in the “Rabbi” trust for the purpose of providing benefits under the non-qualified defined benefit pension plan. The fair value of the investments is based on quoted prices of the investments in active markets. The fair value of foreign currency exchange contracts is determined based on the fair value of similar contracts with similar terms and remaining maturities. The fair value of futures contracts is based on market quotations. The fair values of the variable-rate IRB debt and borrowings under the Restated Credit Agreement approximate their carrying values. Additionally, the fair values of trade receivables and trade payables approximate their carrying values.

Stock-Based Compensation

The Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Incentive Plan”) originally authorized the issuance of up to 1,100,000 shares of the Corporation’s common stock for awards under the Incentive Plan. In May 2021, the shareholders of the Corporation approved an amendment and restatement of the Incentive Plan for an additional 1,600,000 shares that could be issued under the Incentive Plan. At that time, there were only 165,179 shares remaining to be issued under the original Incentive Plan. Awards under the Incentive Plan may include incentive stock options and non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted shares and restricted stock units, performance awards, other stock-based awards or short-term cash incentive awards. If any award is canceled, terminates, expires or lapses for any reason prior to the issuance of the shares, or if the shares are issued under the Incentive Plan and thereafter are forfeited to the Corporation, the shares subject to such awards and the forfeited shares will not count against the aggregate number of shares available under the Incentive Plan. Shares tendered or withheld to pay the option exercise price or tax withholding will continue to count against the aggregate number of shares of common stock available for grant under the Incentive Plan. Any shares repurchased by the Corporation with cash proceeds from the exercise of options will not be added back to the pool of shares available for grant under the Incentive Plan.

The Incentive Plan may be administered by the Board of Directors or the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. The Compensation Committee has the authority to determine, within the limits of the express provisions of the Incentive Plan, the individuals to whom the awards will be granted and the nature, amount and terms of such awards.

The Incentive Plan also provides for equity-based awards during any one year to non-employee members of the Board of Directors, based on the grant date fair value, not to exceed $200. The limit does not apply to shares received by a non-employee director at his or her election in lieu of all or a portion of the director’s retainer for board service.

Stock-based compensation expense, including expense associated with equity-based awards granted to non-employee members of the Board of Directors, for the three months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, equaled $482 and $113, respectively, and for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020, equaled $1,028 and $477, respectively. The income tax benefit recognized in the condensed consolidated statements of operations was not significant due to the Corporation having a valuation allowance recorded against its deferred income tax assets for the jurisdiction where the expense was recognized.

Litigation

The Corporation and its subsidiaries are involved in various claims and lawsuits incidental to their businesses from time to time and are also subject to asbestos litigation as described below.

Asbestos Litigation

Claims have been asserted alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos-containing components historically used in some products manufactured by predecessors of Air & Liquid (the “Asbestos Liability”). Air & Liquid, and in some cases the

17


Corporation, are defendants (among a number of defendants, often in excess of 50) in cases filed in various state and federal courts.

Asbestos Claims

The following table reflects approximate information about the claims for Asbestos Liability against Air & Liquid and the Corporation for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020 (claims not in thousands):

Included as “total claims pending” are approximately 658 and 748 claims in 2021 and 2020, respectively, classified in various jurisdictions as “inactive” or transferred to a state or federal judicial panel on multi-district litigation.

 

(2)

In 2021, the Corporation adopted the same methodology used by Nathan Associates, Inc. (“Nathan”), the liability expert who values the Corporation’s asbestos claims, in order to better align the Corporation’s data with Nathan’s liability valuation. Nathan’s methodology treats all claims filed six or more years ago as “administratively closed.” Therefore, the Corporation changed its prior practice of reporting “Total claims pending at the end of the period” into two categories – “Administrative closures” and “Total active claims at the end of the period.” Administrative closures now include (i) those claims that were filed six or more years ago; (ii) claims that were previously classified in various jurisdictions as “inactive;” and (iii) claims that were transferred to a state or federal judicial panel on multi-district litigation. Collectively, these claims are unlikely to result in any liability to the Corporation. Accordingly, the Corporation believes that presentation of “Total active claims at the end of the period” is a better indicator of total claims which may result in future payment.

 

(3)

Claims resolved do not include claims that were administratively closed.

A substantial majority of the settlement and defense costs reflected in the above table was reported and paid by insurers. Because claims are often filed and can be settled or dismissed in large groups, the amount and timing of settlements, as well as the number of open claims, can fluctuate significantly from period to period.

Asbestos Insurance

The Corporation and Air & Liquid are parties to a series of settlement agreements (“Settlement Agreements”) with insurers that have coverage obligations for the Asbestos Liability (the “Settling Insurers”). Under the Settlement Agreements, the Settling Insurers accept financial responsibility, subject to the terms and conditions of the respective agreements, including overall coverage limits, for pending and future claims for the Asbestos Liability. The Settlement Agreements encompass the substantial majority of insurance policies that provide coverage for claims for the Asbestos Liability.

The Settlement Agreements include acknowledgements that Howden North America, Inc. (“Howden”) is entitled to coverage under policies covering the Asbestos Liability for claims arising out of the historical products manufactured or distributed by Buffalo Forge, a former subsidiary of the Corporation (the “Products”), which was acquired by Howden. The Settlement Agreements do not provide for any prioritization on access to the applicable policies or any sublimits of liability as to Howden or the Corporation and Air & Liquid, and, accordingly, Howden may access the coverage afforded by the Settling Insurers for any covered claim arising out of the Products. In general, access by Howden to the coverage afforded by the Settling Insurers for the Products will erode coverage under the Settlement Agreements available to the Corporation and Air & Liquid for the Asbestos Liability.

Asbestos Valuations

At December 31, 2006, with the assistance of a nationally recognized expert in the valuation of asbestos liabilities, the Corporation recorded its initial reserve for the Asbestos Liability. With the assistance of the nationally recognized expert, the reserve for the Asbestos Liability had been periodically updated since that time. In 2018, the Corporation engaged Nathan Associates Inc. (“Nathan”) to update the liability valuation, and additional reserves were established by the Corporation for the Asbestos Liability claims pending or projected to be asserted through 2052, the estimated final date by which the Corporation expects to have settled all asbestos-related claims. The methodology used by Nathan in its projection was substantially the same methodology employed by the previous expert and included the following factors:

 

interpretation of a widely accepted forecast of the population likely to have been exposed to asbestos;

 

epidemiological studies estimating the number of people likely to develop asbestos-related diseases;

 

analysis of the number of people likely to file an asbestos-related injury claim against the subsidiaries and the Corporation based on such epidemiological data and relevant claims history from January 1, 2016, to August 19, 2018;

 

an analysis of pending cases, by type of injury claimed and jurisdiction where the claim is filed;

 

an analysis of claims resolution history from January 1, 2016, to August 19, 2018, to determine the average settlement value of claims, by type of injury claimed and jurisdiction of filing; and

 

an adjustment for inflation in the future average settlement value of claims, at an annual inflation rate based on the Congressional Budget Office’s forecast of inflation.

Using this information, Nathan estimated the number of future claims for the Asbestos Liability that would be filed through the year 2052, as well as the settlement or indemnity costs that would be incurred to resolve both pending and future unasserted claims through 2052. This methodology has been accepted by numerous courts.

In conjunction with developing the Asbestos Liability through 2052, the Corporation also developed an estimate of probable insurance recoveries for the Asbestos Liability. In developing the estimate, the Corporation considered Nathan’s projection for settlement or indemnity costs for the Asbestos Liability and management’s projection of associated defense costs (based on the current defense to indemnity cost ratio), as well as a number of additional factors. These additional factors included the Settlement Agreements in effect, policy exclusions, policy limits, policy provisions regarding coverage for defense costs, attachment points, prior impairment of policies and gaps in the coverage, policy exhaustions, insolvencies among certain of the insurance carriers, and the nature of the underlying claims for the Asbestos Liability asserted against the subsidiaries and the Corporation as reflected in the Corporation’s asbestos claims database, as well as estimated erosion of insurance limits on account of claims against Howden arising out of the Products. In addition to consulting with the Corporation’s outside legal counsel on these insurance matters, the Corporation consulted with a nationally recognized insurance consulting firm it retained to assist the Corporation with certain policy allocation matters that also are among the several factors considered by the Corporation when analyzing potential recoveries from relevant historical insurance for the Asbestos Liability. Based upon all of the factors considered by the Corporation, and considering the Corporation’s analysis of publicly available information regarding the credit-worthiness of various insurers, the Corporation estimated the probable insurance recoveries for the Asbestos Liability and defense costs through 2052.

Based on the analysis described above, the Corporation’s reserve at December 31, 2018, for the total costs, including defense costs, for Asbestos Liability claims pending or projected to be asserted through 2052, was $227,922. The reserve at June 30, 2021, was $170,776. Defense costs are estimated at 80% of settlement costs. The Corporation’s receivable at December 31, 2018, for insurance recoveries attributable to the claims for which the Corporation’s Asbestos Liability reserve has been established, including the portion of incurred defense costs covered by the Settlement Agreements in effect through December 31, 2018, and the probable payments and reimbursements relating to the estimated indemnity and defense costs for pending and unasserted future Asbestos Liability claims, was $152,508 ($112,279 at June 30, 2021).

The following table summarizes activity relating to insurance recoveries for the six months ended June 30, 2021, and 2020:

The insurance receivable recorded by the Corporation does not assume any recovery from insolvent carriers. In addition, a substantial majority of the insurance recoveries deemed probable is from insurance companies rated A – (excellent) or better by A.M. Best Corporation. There can be no assurance, however, that there will not be further insolvencies among the relevant

19


insurance carriers, or that the assumed percentage recoveries for certain carriers will prove correct. The difference between insurance recoveries and projected costs is not due to exhaustion of all insurance coverage for the Asbestos Liability.

The amounts recorded for the Asbestos Liability and insurance receivable rely on assumptions that are based on currently known facts and strategy. The Corporation’s actual expenses or insurance recoveries could be significantly higher or lower than those recorded if assumptions used in the Corporation’s or Nathan’s calculations vary significantly from actual results. Key variables in these assumptions are identified above and include the number and type of new claims to be filed each year, the average cost of disposing of each such new claim, average annual defense costs, compliance by relevant parties with the terms of the Settlement Agreements, and the solvency risk with respect to the relevant insurance carriers. Other factors that may affect the Asbestos Liability and ability to recover under the Corporation’s insurance policies include uncertainties surrounding the litigation process from jurisdiction to jurisdiction and from case to case, reforms that may be made by state and federal courts, and the passage of state or federal tort reform legislation.

The Corporation intends to evaluate the Asbestos Liability and related insurance receivable as well as the underlying assumptions on a regular basis to determine whether any adjustments to the estimates are required. Due to the uncertainties surrounding asbestos litigation and insurance, these regular reviews may result in the Corporation adjusting its current reserve; however, the Corporation is currently unable to estimate such future adjustments. Adjustments, if any, to the Corporation’s estimate of the Asbestos Liability and/or insurance receivable could be material to operating results for the periods in which the adjustments to the liability or receivable are recorded, and to the Corporation’s liquidity and consolidated financial position.

16.

Environmental Matters

The Corporation is currently performing certain remedial actions in connection with the sale of real estate previously owned and periodically incurs costs to maintain compliance with environmental laws and regulations. Environmental exposures are difficult to assess and estimate for numerous reasons, including lack of reliable data, the multiplicity of possible solutions, the years of remedial and monitoring activity required, and identification of new sites. In the opinion of management, the potential liability for remedial actions and environmental compliance measures of approximately $100 at June 30, 2021, is considered adequate based on information known to date.

ITEM  2 – MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF

FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

(in thousands, except share and per share amounts)

Forward-Looking Statements

The Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995 (the “Act”) provides a safe harbor for forward-looking statements made by or on behalf of Ampco-Pittsburgh Corporation (the “Corporation”). Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations and other sections of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, as well as the condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto, may include, but are not limited to, statements about operating performance, trends, events that we expect or anticipate will occur in the future, statements about sales and production levels, restructurings, the impact from global pandemics (including COVID-19), profitability and anticipated expenses, future proceeds from the exercise of outstanding warrants, and cash outflows. All statements in this document other than statements of historical fact are statements that are, or could be, deemed “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Act and words such as “may,” “will”, “intend,” “believe,” “expect,” “anticipate,” “estimate,” “project,” “forecast” and other terms of similar meaning that indicate future events and trends are also generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Forward-looking statements speak only as of the date on which such statements are made, are not guarantees of future performance or expectations, and involve risks and uncertainties. For us, these risks and uncertainties include, but are not limited to:

 

cyclical demand for products and economic downturns;

 

excess global capacity in the steel industry;

 

fluctuations of the value of the U.S. dollar relative to other currencies;

 

increases in commodity prices or shortages of key production materials;

 

consequences of global pandemics (including COVID-19);

 

changes in the existing regulatory environment;

 

new trade restrictions and regulatory burdens associated with “Brexit”;

 

inability to successfully restructure our operations;

 

limitations in availability of capital to fund our operations and strategic plan;

 

inoperability of certain equipment on which we rely;

 

work stoppage or another industrial action on the part of any of our unions;

 

liability of our subsidiaries for claims alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos-containing components historically used in certain products of our subsidiaries;

 

inability to satisfy the continued listing requirements of the New York Stock Exchange or NYSE American;

 

failure to maintain an effective system of internal control;

 

potential attacks on information technology infrastructure and other cyber-based business disruptions; and

 

those discussed more fully elsewhere in this report and in documents filed with the Securities Exchange Commission by the Corporation, particularly in Item 1A, Risk Factors, in Part I of the Corporation’s latest Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.

We cannot guarantee any future results, levels of activity, performance, or achievements. In addition, there may be events in the future that we are not able to predict accurately or control which may cause actual results to differ materially from expectations expressed or implied by forward-looking statements. Except as required by applicable law, we assume no obligation, and disclaim any obligation, to update forward-looking statements whether as a result of new information, events or otherwise.

The Business

The Corporation manufactures and sells highly engineered, high-performance specialty metal products and customized equipment utilized by industry throughout the world. It operates in two business segments – the Forged and Cast Engineered Products (“FCEP”) segment and the Air and Liquid Processing (“ALP”) segment. This segment presentation is consistent with how the Corporation’s chief operating decision maker evaluates financial performance and makes resource allocation and strategic decisions about the business.


21


 

The FCEP segment produces forged hardened steel rolls, cast rolls and open-die forged products. Forged hardened steel rolls are used primarily in cold rolling mills by producers of steel, aluminum and other metals. Cast rolls, which are produced in a variety of iron and steel qualities, are used mainly in hot and cold strip mills, medium/heavy section mills and plate mills. Forged engineered products (“FEP”) are principally sold to customers in the steel distribution market, oil and gas industry and the aluminum and plastic extrusion industries. The segment has operations in the United States, England, Sweden, Slovenia and an equity interest in three joint venture companies in China. Collectively, the segment primarily competes with European, Asian and North and South American companies in both domestic and foreign markets and distributes a significant portion of its products through sales offices located throughout the world.

The ALP segment includes Aerofin, Buffalo Air Handling and Buffalo Pumps, all divisions of Air & Liquid Systems Corporation (“Air & Liquid”), a wholly owned subsidiary of the Corporation. Aerofin produces custom-engineered finned tube heat exchange coils and related heat transfer products for a variety of industries including OEM/commercial, nuclear power generation and industrial manufacturing. Buffalo Air Handling produces large custom-designed air handling systems for institutional (e.g., hospital, university), pharmaceutical and general industrial building markets. Buffalo Pumps manufactures centrifugal pumps for the fossil-fueled power generation, marine defense and industrial refrigeration industries. The segment has operations in Virginia and New York with headquarters in Carnegie, Pennsylvania. The segment distributes a significant portion of its products through a common independent group of sales offices located throughout the United States and Canada.

COVID-19

On January 30, 2020, the World Health Organization (“WHO”) announced a global health emergency caused by a new strain of the coronavirus (“COVID-19”) and advised of the risks to the international community as the virus spread globally. In March 2020, the WHO classified the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the rapid increase in exposure globally. In response, many state and local governments required the closure of various businesses. The U.S. Department of Homeland Security, however, issued guidance identifying the Corporation’s domestic businesses as critical infrastructure industries, essential to the economic prosperity, security and continuity of the United States, which provides exceptions to certain closures mandated by state and local governments and permits businesses to continue operations during such an order. Despite the designation and particularly in 2020, the Corporation has had to periodically and temporarily idle certain operations of its FCEP segment and, consequently, furlough certain of its employees in response to market conditions. It also has experienced, and may continue to experience, customer-requested delays of deliveries or, potentially, cancellation of orders.

It is difficult to isolate the impact of the pandemic on the Corporation’s operating results, particularly in relation to the unabsorbed costs resulting from the periodic and temporary idling of certain of the Corporation’s forged and cast roll operations and furloughing of employees. In addition, the Corporation is uncertain of the full effect the pandemic will have on it for the longer term since the scope and duration of the pandemic is unknown, and evolving factors such as the level and timing of the distribution of efficacious vaccines across the world and the extent of any resurgences of the virus or emergence of new variants of the virus, such as the Delta variant, will impact the stability of economic recovery and growth. The extent to which the operations of the Corporation, and the operations of its customers, may be adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic will depend largely on these future developments. The Corporation may experience long-term disruptions to its operations resulting from changes in government policy or guidance; quarantines of employees, customers and suppliers in areas affected by the pandemic; and closures of businesses or manufacturing facilities critical to its business or supply chains. It may also incur higher write-offs of accounts receivables and impairment charges on its asset values, including property, plant and equipment and intangible assets. The Corporation is actively monitoring, and will continue to actively monitor, the pandemic and the potential impact on its operations, financial condition, liquidity, suppliers, industry and workforce.

In response to the pandemic, the United States federal government enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act, among other things, includes provisions relating to refundable payroll tax credits, deferral of employer-side social security payments and contributions to employee benefit plans, net operating loss carryback periods, alternative minimum tax credit refunds, modifications to the net interest deduction limitations and technical corrections to tax depreciation methods for qualified improvement property. Subsequently, on March 11, 2021, the American Rescue Plan (“ARP”) Act of 2021 was enacted into law, providing the next phase of economic relief as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. The ARP Act, among other things, extends the provision relating to refundable payroll tax credits and deferral of contributions to employee benefit plans. Similar programs have been offered in certain of the foreign jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates, including subsidies and reimbursement of certain employee-related costs. While the Corporation has taken, and intends to continue to take, advantage of various provisions of the CARES Act, the ARP Act and other similar programs offered domestically and in foreign jurisdictions in which the Corporation operates, where possible, it is unable to determine what impact those provisions may have on its consolidated financial statements in the future.

Executive Overview

For the FCEP segment, roll market conditions are improving but remain below pre-pandemic levels. Expectations are for sales orders to return to pre-pandemic levels in 2022. The FEP market is also showing signs of improvement with increasing demand from the

22


steel distribution and oil and gas markets. The primary focus for this segment is diversification and development of FEP for use in other industries, ongoing operational and efficiency improvements at its facilities, and capital equipment investment activities to upgrade existing equipment and increase FEP capacity.

For the ALP segment, Aerofin’s heat exchanger business is seeing initial signs of improved business activity in the OEM/commercial market. Buffalo Air Handling’s custom air handling business is experiencing steady demand; however, competitive pricing pressures continue. Buffalo Pumps’ specialty centrifugal pumps business is benefiting from steady demand from the marine defense market. The focus for this segment is to grow revenues, increase margins, strengthen engineering and manufacturing capabilities, increase manufacturing productivity, and continue to improve its sales distribution network. To date, the ALP segment has successfully mitigated the negative impact on sales and operating income resulting from the pandemic.

Net sales increased primarily due to the net of:

 

Higher volume of mill roll shipments as customers begin to return to pre-pandemic levels of production and, as a result, begin to replenish roll inventory; and

 

Higher volume of FEP sales due to a higher volume of shipments to customers in the oil and gas and steel distribution markets; offset by

 

Lower sales for the ALP segment.

A discussion of net sales for the Corporation’s two segments is included below.

Costs of products sold, excluding depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of net sales increased primarily due to higher net raw material costs and changes in product mix for the FCEP segment. Additionally, the six-month period ended June 30, 2020, benefited from receipt of business interruption insurance proceeds of $769 for equipment outages that occurred in 2018 (the “Proceeds from Business Interruption Insurance Claim”). For the ALP segment, costs of products sold, excluding depreciation and amortization, as a percentage of net sales varied slightly as a result of product mix.

Selling and administrative expenses increased principally due to:

 

Higher stock-related compensation due, in part, to the increase in the share value of the common stock of the Corporation, which increased selling and administrative expense by $549 and $911 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively;

 

Higher commission expense resulting primarily from higher FEP sales, which increased selling and administrative expenses by $466 and $677 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively; and  

 

Higher exchange rates used to translate the selling and administrative costs of the Corporation’s foreign subsidiaries into the U.S. dollar, which increased selling and administrative expenses by $558 and $820 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

23


The increase in selling and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2021, when compared to the same period of the prior year, is offset by lower bad debt expense of approximately $800. In particular, in the first quarter of 2020, the Corporation recognized additional bad debt reserves for customers of the FCEP segment anticipated to be adversely affected by the COVID-19 pandemic.

Depreciation and amortization was comparable between the periods.  

Investment-related income fluctuated primarily due to the timing of dividends from one of the Corporation’s Chinese joint ventures. In the second quarter of 2021, the Chinese joint venture declared a dividend which equaled $1,025 for the Corporation. By comparison, the dividend was declared in the third quarter of the prior year and equaled $1,173.

Interest expense decreased principally due to lower average borrowings outstanding under the revolving credit facility.

Other income – net is comprised of the following:

Other income – net fluctuated due to:

 

Lower foreign exchange gains quarter over quarter which brought year-to-date foreign exchange losses in line with that of the prior year;

 

Lower unrealized gains quarter over quarter for the Rabbi trust investments as the prior year quarter recovered some of its losses incurred in the first quarter following the start of the COVID-19 pandemic; and

 

Higher pension and other postretirement income due to lower interest costs on employee benefit obligations as a result of lower discount rates coupled with a higher expected return on plan assets as a result of an increase in the fair value of plan assets year over year.

Income tax (provision) benefit for each of the periods includes income taxes associated with the Corporation’s profitable operations. An income tax benefit is not able to be recognized on losses of certain of the Corporation’s entities since it is “more likely than not” the asset will not be realized.

The income tax provision for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, includes $745 of expense associated with:

 

The restructuring of a foreign sales office; and

 

The revaluing of the deferred income taxes of the Corporation’s U.K. entity following new legislation enacted during the year, which will increase the U.K. corporate tax rate from 19% to 25% in 2023.

The income tax benefit for the six months ended June 30, 2020, includes a $3,502 benefit made possible by the CARES Act, which enabled the Corporation to carry back net operating losses to an earlier period, at a higher tax rate, and to release a portion of the valuation allowance it had previously established against its deferred income tax assets.

Net income attributable to Ampco-Pittsburgh and income per common share for the six months ended June 30, 2020, include an income tax benefit of $3,502, due to the enactment of the CARES Act, and the Proceeds from Business Interruption Insurance Claim, which had a combined positive impact on income per common share of $0.34.

Backlog represents the accumulation of firm orders on hand which: (i) are supported by evidence of a contractual arrangement, (ii) include a fixed and determinable sales price, (iii) have collectability that is reasonably assured, and (iv) generally are expected to ship within two years from the backlog reporting date. A discussion of backlog for the Corporation’s two segments is included below.

The increase in net sales is principally due to the net of:

 

Higher volume of mill roll shipments resulting from improved demand as certain customers begin to return to pre-pandemic levels of production and, as a result, begin to replenish roll inventory, which increased net sales by approximately $18,200 and $9,400 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively;

 

Higher volume of FEP shipments as a result of increased demand from the steel distribution and oil and gas markets, which increased net sales by approximately $3,900 and $6,600 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively; and

 

Changes in exchanges rates used to translate net sales of the segment’s foreign subsidiaries into the U.S. dollar, which increased net sales by approximately $3,900 and $7,000 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively; offset by

 

Unfavorable product mix, net of higher variable-index surcharges passed through to customers as a result of higher raw material costs of $147 and $2,151 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, which reduced net sales by an aggregate amount of approximately $5,500 and $7,900 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

Operating results fluctuated due to the net of:

 

Higher production levels contributing to better absorption of costs, which improved operating results by approximately $1,600 and $300 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively;

 

Higher volume of shipments, which positively impacted operating results by approximately $3,600 and $2,400 for three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively; and

 

Changes in exchanges rates used to translate operating results of the segment’s foreign subsidiaries into the U.S. dollar, which increased operating income by approximately $300 and $700 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively; offset by

 

Higher raw material costs, net of higher variable-index surcharges passed through to customers of $147 and $2,151 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively, which adversely impacted operating results by approximately $700 and $1,400 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively;

 

Unfavorable product mix, which adversely impacted earnings by approximately $2,400 and $2,900 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively; and

 

Higher commissions associated with the higher volume of FEP sales of approximately $400 and $700 for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively.

In addition, operating results for the six months ended June 30, 2020, included:

 

Proceeds received from the Business Interruption Insurance Claim of $769; offset by

 

Charges for anticipated bad debts and slow-moving inventory reserves of approximately $1,000 for customers expected to be more severely impacted by the pandemic.

The decrease in backlog is principally due to lower backlog for cast rolls as a result of delays from customers in placing orders due to unpredictable market conditions. An overall increase in foreign exchange rates used to translate the backlog of the Corporation’s foreign subsidiaries into the U.S. dollar and higher backlog for forged rolls and FEP due to improved demand helped to offset the decrease from December 31, 2020. At June 30, 2021, the majority of the backlog is expected to ship in 2021.

The decrease in net sales is principally attributable to a lower level of shipments of heat exchange coils and centrifugal pumps. Sales of heat exchange coils were negatively impacted primarily by a lower volume of replacement business for the OEM/commercial market. Sales of pumps decreased due to a lower volume of shipments to the power generation industry and U.S. Navy shipbuilders. Sales of air handling units were relatively comparable for each of the periods. Operating income for the current year periods decreased when compared to the same periods of the prior year primarily due to the lower level of shipments. Backlog at June 30, 2021, improved from December 31, 2020, principally as a result of higher orders for centrifugal pumps and heat exchange coils. At June 30, 2021, the majority of the backlog is expected to ship in 2021.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

The Corporation presents non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) from operations, which is calculated as income (loss) from operations excluding the Proceeds from Business Interruption Insurance Claim. This non-GAAP financial measure is not based on any standardized methodology prescribed by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“GAAP”) and may not be comparable to similarly-titled measures presented by other companies.

The Corporation has presented non-GAAP adjusted income (loss) from operations because it is a key measure used by the Corporation’s management and Board of Directors to understand and evaluate the Corporation’s operating performance and to develop operational goals for managing its business. This non-GAAP financial measure excludes significant charges or credits, that are one-time charges or credits, unrelated to the Corporation’s ongoing results of operations or beyond its control. Additionally, a portion of the incentive and compensation arrangements for certain employees is based on the Corporation’s business performance. The Corporation believes this non-GAAP financial measure helps identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be masked by the effect of the items that it excludes from adjusted income (loss) from operations. The Corporation also believes this non-GAAP financial measure provides useful information to management, shareholders and investors, and others in understanding and evaluating its operating results, enhancing the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allowing for greater transparency with respect to key financial metrics used by the Corporation’s management in its financial and operational decision-making.

Adjusted income (loss) from operations is not prepared in accordance with GAAP and should not be considered in isolation of, or as an alternative to, measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. There are limitations related to the use of adjusted income (loss) from operations rather than income (loss) from operations, which is the nearest GAAP equivalent. Among other things, there can be no assurance that additional benefits similar to the Proceeds from Business Interruption Insurance Claim will not occur in future periods.

The adjustment reflected in adjusted income (loss) from operations is pre-tax. There is no tax impact associated with this adjustment due to the Corporation having a valuation allowance recorded against the deferred income tax assets for the jurisdiction where the income or expense is recognized.

Net cash flows (used in) provided by operating activities fluctuated between the periods as a result of an increase in trade working capital as the Corporation begins to return to a higher level of business activity during this stage of the pandemic.

Net cash flows used in investing activities represent primarily expenditures for the FCEP segment. The Corporation has undertaken a significant capital program, valued between $25,000 and $30,000, to upgrade existing equipment at certain of its FCEP locations which is anticipated to occur over the next three years. At June 30, 2021, commitments for future capital expenditures, including those associated with the FCEP capital program, approximated $18,400.

Net cash flows provided by (used in) financing activities improved period over period primarily due to:

 

Net borrowings from the Corporation’s revolving credit agreement of $4,131 versus repayments in the prior year of $18,500; and

 

Proceeds of $3,217 received in the current year as a result of shareholders exercising their warrants for the Corporation’s common stock.

As of June 30, 2021, the majority of the Corporation’s cash and cash equivalents is held by the Corporation’s foreign operations. Domestic customer remittances are used to pay down borrowings under the Corporation’s revolving credit facility daily, resulting in minimal cash maintained by the Corporation’s domestic operations. Cash held by the Corporation’s foreign operations is considered to be permanently reinvested; accordingly, a provision for estimated local and withholding tax has not been made. If the Corporation were to remit any foreign earnings to it or any of its U.S. entities, the estimated tax impact would be insignificant.

Funds on hand, funds generated from future operations and availability under the Corporation’s revolving credit facility are expected to be sufficient to finance the Corporation’s operational and capital expenditure requirements. The maturity date for the revolving credit facility is June 29, 2026, and, subject to the other terms and conditions of the revolving credit agreement, will become due on that date. While availability under the revolving credit facility also should be sufficient to fund the capital equipment investment activities for the FCEP segment over the next few years, the Corporation is exploring potential financing alternatives. As of June 30, 2021, remaining availability under the revolving credit facility approximated $46,700, net of standard availability reserves.

ITEM 4 – CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure controls and procedures. An evaluation of the effectiveness of the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this report was carried out under the supervision, and with the participation, of management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer. Disclosure controls and procedures are defined under Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) rules as controls and other procedures that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (as amended, the “Exchange Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the required time periods. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by an issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the issuer’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, or persons performing similar functions, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based on that evaluation, the Corporation’s management, including the principal executive officer and principal financial officer, has concluded that the Corporation’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of June 30, 2021.

Changes in Internal Control. There has been no change in the Corporation’s internal control over financial reporting identified in connection with the evaluation required by paragraph (d) of Rules 13a-15 or 15d-15 under the Exchange Act that occurred during our last fiscal quarter that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, its internal control over financial reporting.
