CHICAGO RIVET & MACHINE CO.
NOTES TO THE CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
1. In the opinion of the Company, the accompanying unaudited interim financial statements contain all adjustments necessary to present fairly the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2021 (unaudited) and December 31, 2020 (audited) and the results of operations and changes in cash flows for the indicated periods. Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America have been omitted from these unaudited financial statements in accordance with applicable rules. Please refer to the financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles 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 revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates. The results of operations for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results to be expected for the year.
2. The Company extends credit on the basis of terms that are customary within our markets to various companies doing business primarily in the automotive industry. The Company has a concentration of credit risk primarily within the automotive industry and in the Midwestern United States.
3. The Company is, from time to time, involved in litigation, including environmental claims and contract disputes, in the normal course of business. While it is not possible at this time to establish the ultimate amount of liability with respect to contingent liabilities, including those related to legal proceedings, management is of the opinion that the aggregate amount of any such liabilities, for which provision has not been made, will not have a material adverse effect on the Company's financial position.
4. Revenue—The Company operates in the fastener industry and is in the business of manufacturing and selling rivets, cold-formed fasteners and parts, screw machine products, automatic rivet setting machines and parts and tools for such machines. Revenue is recognized when control of the promised goods or services is transferred to our customers, generally upon shipment of goods or completion of services, in an amount that reflects the consideration we expect to receive in exchange for those goods or services. For certain assembly equipment segment transactions, revenue is recognized based on progress toward completion of the performance obligation using a labor-based measure. Labor incurred and specific material costs are compared to milestone payments per sales contract. Based on our experience, this method most accurately reflects the transfer of goods under such contracts During the second quarter of 2021, the Company realized $422,578 related to such contracts and $36,301 is the remaining performance obligation under such contracts which the Company expects to recognize as revenue in the third quarter.
Sales taxes we may collect concurrent with revenue producing activities are excluded from revenue. Revenue is recognized net of certain sales adjustments to arrive at net sales as reported on the statement of income. These adjustments primarily relate to customer returns and allowances. The Company records a liability and reduction in sales for estimated product returns based upon historical experience. If we determine that our obligation under warranty claims is probable and subject to reasonable determination, an estimate of that liability is recorded as an offset against revenue at that time. As of June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 reserves for warranty claims were not material. Cash received by the Company prior to shipment is recorded as unearned revenue.
Shipping and handling fees billed to customers are recognized in net sales, and related costs as cost of sales, when incurred.
Sales commissions are expensed when incurred because the amortization period is less than one year. These costs are recorded within selling and administrative expenses in the statement of income.

5. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act allows for the carryback of any net operating loss arising in a tax year beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2021, to each of the five tax years preceding the tax year in which the loss arises. As a result, the Company’s effective tax rate was approximately 21.4% for the second quarter of 2021 compared to (29.2)% for the second quarter of 2020. The Company’s effective tax rate was 21.6% and (29.7)% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively.
The Company’s federal income tax returns for the 2017 through 2020 tax years are subject to examination by the Internal Revenue Service (“IRS”). While it may be possible that a reduction could occur with respect to the Company’s unrecognized tax benefits as an outcome of an IRS examination, management does not anticipate any adjustments that would result in a material change to the results of operations or financial condition of the Company. No statutes have been extended on any of the Company’s federal income tax filings. The statute of limitations on the Company’s 2017 through 2020 federal income tax returns will expire on September 15, 2021 through 2024, respectively.
The Company’s state income tax returns for the 2017 through 2020 tax years remain subject to examination by various state authorities with the latest closing period on October 31, 2024. The Company is not currently under examination by any state authority for income tax purposes and no statutes for state income tax filings have been extended.
6. Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value, cost being determined by the first-in, first-out method.

8. COVID-19 -In March 2020, the World Health Organization characterized the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) a pandemic and the President of the United States declared the COVID-19 outbreak a national emergency. The rapid spread of the virus and the response domestically and internationally to combat it caused a significant negative impact on the global economy, including the automotive industry upon which we rely for sales. Beginning in March 2020, most states issued executive orders which temporarily closed businesses deemed non-essential in an effort to limit the spread of the coronavirus. Similar measures also took place in foreign markets we serve. As a result, our operations and the operations of our customers and suppliers were adversely affected. Since some of our customers are classified as essential businesses and were allowed to continue to operate during this period, we were able to continue our operations, but at a significantly reduced level, in order to service those customers. Our automotive customers were particularly affected, as much of the sector was idled for an extended period of time during the second quarter of 2020 due to employee safety concerns. While most shut-down orders were lifted late in that quarter, various work-related restrictions continued and the economic fallout spread. During this period of rapidly changing business conditions and heightened uncertainty resulting from COVID-19, we took measures to reduce expenses and conserve capital, including reduced work schedules, delayed capital expenditures and a reduction in dividend payments. In the second half of 2020, we experienced improved demand as certain government-imposed restrictions were relaxed. While the economy has improved dramatically since this time last year, labor shortages and supply chain disruptions persist. The timing and sustainability of a broader economic recovery is uncertain and will likely continue to be tied to the course of the pandemic. As we cannot predict the duration or scope of the COVID-19 pandemic, or its broader impact on the global economy, including the demand for automobiles, it is unknown what the impact of COVID-19 and its related effects will be on our business, results of operations or financial condition, but the impact could be material and last for an extended period of time.

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
Results of Operations
Net sales for the second quarter of 2021 were $8,364,390 compared to $4,103,520 in the second quarter of 2020, when government-mandated business closures due to the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) pandemic severely limited demand for our products. For the first half of 2021, net sales totaled $17,669,339 compared to $11,679,975 in the first half of 2020, an increase of $5,989,364, or 51.3%. Net sales in the first half of 2019 were $17,497,129. The increase in revenue was the primary factor in reporting a net profit of $319,507, or $0.33 per share, in the second quarter of 2021 compared with a net loss of $779,516, or $0.81 per share, in the second quarter of 2020. For the first half of 2021, net income improved to $859,635, or $0.89 per share, compared to a net loss of $722,948, or $0.75 per share, reported in 2020. Net income for the first half of 2019 was $516,401, or $0.54 per share.
Fastener segment revenues were $7,142,044 in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $3,513,742 reported in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of $3,628,302, or 103.3%. For the first six months of 2021, fastener segment revenues were $15,290,722 compared to $10,251,139 in the first half of 2020, an increase of $5,039,583, or 49.2%. The increases were primarily due to the negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on 2020 operating results. The automotive sector is the primary market for our fastener segment products and much of that sector was idled for an extended period of time during the second quarter of 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic, as a result, the current year second quarter and first half sales to automotive customers increased by $2,513,599, or 159.3%, and $3,159,331, or 52.7%, respectively compared to the year earlier periods. Due to some of our non-automotive customers being deemed “essential businesses” and allowed to continue operating throughout the pandemic, the improvements in such sales were less dramatic, increasing by $1,114,703, or 57.6%, in the second quarter of 2021 and $1,900,252, or 44.8%, in the first half of 2021 compared to the year earlier periods. The rebound in sales resulted in an improvement of fastener segment gross margins to $1,261,592 in the second quarter of 2021 from negative $40,164 in the second quarter of 2020. On a year to date basis, fastener segment gross margins improved to $2,918,221 in the first half of the current year from $1,051,798 in the first half of 2020.
Assembly equipment segment revenues were $1,222,346 in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $589,778 in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of $632,568, or 107.3%. For the first half of 2021, assembly equipment segment revenues were $2,378,617 compared to $1,428,836 for the first half of 2020, an increase of $949,781, or 66.5%. In addition to the general rebound in demand for assembly equipment we have experienced since the pandemic-related shut downs of early 2020, revenue growth has also come from the sale of more specialty equipment. The increase in revenue was the primary cause of the increase in assembly equipment segment gross margins to $415,485 in the second quarter of 2021 from $110,314 in the second quarter of 2020. For the first half of the year, gross margins were $793,293 compared to $328,789 in 2020, an increase of $464,504.
Selling and administrative expenses for the second quarter of 2021 were $1,284,748 compared to $1,214,423 in the second quarter of 2020, an increase of $70,325, or 5.8%. The increase was primarily due to an increase of approximately $86,000 in sales commissions, due to higher sales, and an $8,000 increase in profit sharing expense, due to improved operating results. Partially offsetting these items was a reduction in consulting expenses related to an ERP system update in 2020 of approximately $32,000. The remaining difference was related to various smaller items. For the first six months of 2021, selling and administrative expenses were $2,646,949 compared to $2,499,757 in the first half of 2020, an increase of $147,192, or 5.9%. As in the second quarter, expenditures for the first half of 2021 were higher primarily due to an increase in commissions of approximately $101,000 and an increase in profit sharing expense of $65,000. These increases were partially offset by a reduction in consulting expense of approximately $19,000. Selling and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales for the first half of 2021 were reduced to 15.0% compared to 21.4% in the first half of 2020.
Other Income
Other income in the second quarter of 2021 was $14,178, compared to $43,757 in the second quarter of 2020. Other income for the first six months of 2021 was $32,070, compared to $90,232 in the first six months of 2020. The declines were primarily due to a reduction in interest income on certificates of deposit due to lower interest rates in the current year.
11
Income Tax Expense
The Company’s effective tax rates were approximately 21.4% and (29.2)% for the second quarter of 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Company’s effective tax rates were approximately 21.6% and (29.7)% for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively. The Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (“CARES Act”) was signed into law on March 27, 2020. The CARES Act allows for the carryback of any net operating loss arising in a tax year beginning after December 31, 2017 and before January 1, 2021, to each of the five tax years preceding the tax year in which the loss arises. As a result, the Company’s effective tax rates in the 2020 periods were higher than the statutory rates.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Working capital at June 30, 2021 was $17,260,183, an increase of $693,894 from the beginning of the year. During the first half of 2021, inventory increased by $1,903,375 as raw material purchases were accelerated in anticipation of price increases and supply chain disruptions. Other items impacting working capital in the first half of 2021 were capital expenditures of $345,213, which consisted primarily of equipment used in fastener production activities, and dividends paid of $425,098. These changes and other cash flow activity resulted in a balance of cash, cash equivalents and certificates of deposit at $6,230,284 as of June 30, 2021 compared to $7,300,731 as of the beginning of the year. Management believes that current cash, cash equivalents and operating cash flow will provide adequate working capital for the next twelve months.
Results of Operations Summary
Results in the second quarter improved dramatically compared to the second quarter of 2020, when the COVID-19 pandemic caused widespread business shut-downs that resulted in a global recession. While the pandemic is not entirely under control, the wider availability of vaccines has allowed for fewer COVID-related restrictions and an improved economic outlook. Although we experienced greater overall demand in the second quarter compared to a year earlier, some automobile manufacturers had to reduce operations during the quarter due to shortages of critical components. These disruptions had a negative impact on demand for fastener segment components from certain automotive customers. We have also experienced higher prices for various commodities compared to last year and longer lead times for certain items. Cost increases can be difficult to recover and are expected to persist while supply constraints exist. Most significantly, a general labor shortage has kept staffing below ideal levels and resulted in higher than anticipated labor costs. These factors, as well as the uncertainties related to COVID-19, are expected to continue to present challenges in the near-term.
