You can generally identify forward‑looking statements by our use of forward‑looking terminology such as “aim,” “anticipate,” “assume,” “believe,” “continue,” “could,” “estimate,” “expect,” “goal,” “intend,” “may,” “might,” “plan,” “progress,” “potential,” “predict,” “projection,” “seek,” “should,” “will,” or “would,” or the negative thereof, or other variations thereon or comparable terminology. In particular, statements about the markets in which we operate, including growth of our various markets, our expectations, beliefs, plans, strategies, objectives, prospects, assumptions, or future events or performance, statements regarding our restructuring actions and expected restructuring charges and cost savings, statements regarding our cash requirements, working capital needs and expected capital expenditures, statements regarding our expectations for fiscal 2022, customer demand, supply chain challenges, material availability, price/cost, labor shortages, inflation, and general macroeconomic conditions, and statements related to the COVID-19 pandemic and its ongoing impact on our business contained in this Report are forward‑looking statements.

All of these forward‑looking statements are based on our current expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections. While we believe these expectations, assumptions, estimates and projections are reasonable, such forward‑looking statements are only predictions and involve known and unknown risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control. These and other important factors, including those discussed in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, as filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) on November 17, 2021, and Part I, Item 2, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of this Report may cause our actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from any future results, performance, or achievements expressed or implied by these forward‑looking statements or could affect our share price. Some of the factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from those expressed or implied by the forward‑looking statements include, among other things:

•general global economic and business conditions, including the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, geopolitical conflicts, such as the conflict between Russia and Ukraine, and potential recessionary conditions;

•our ability to execute projects on budget and on schedule;

•material, freight, and labor inflation, commodity and component availability constraints, and disruptions in global supply chains and transportation services;

•the potential for us to incur liabilities to customers as a result of warranty claims or failure to meet performance guarantees;

•our ability to meet our own and our customers’ safety standards;

•failure to effectively treat emerging contaminants;

•our ability to continue to develop or acquire new products, services, and solutions that allow us to compete successfully in our markets;

•our ability to implement our growth strategy, including acquisitions, and our ability to identify suitable acquisition targets;

•our ability to operate or integrate any acquired businesses, assets, or product lines profitably;

•our ability to achieve the expected benefits of our restructuring actions;

•delays in enactment or repeals of environmental laws and regulations;

•the potential for us to become subject to claims relating to handling, storage, release, or disposal of hazardous materials;

•our ability to retain our senior management, skilled technical, engineering, sales, and other key personnel and to attract and retain key talent in increasingly competitive labor markets;

•risks associated with international sales and operations;

•our ability to adequately protect our intellectual property from third-party infringement;

•risks related to our contracts with federal, state, and local governments, including risk of termination or modification prior to completion;

•risks associated with product defects and unanticipated or improper use of our products;

•our ability to accurately predict the timing of contract awards;

•risks related to our substantial indebtedness;

•our increasing dependence on the continuous and reliable operation of our information technology systems;

•risks related to foreign, federal, state and local environmental, health and safety laws and other applicable laws and regulations and the costs associated therewith;

•our ability to execute on our strategies related to environmental, social, and governance matters, and achieve related goals and targets, including as a result of evolving standards, laws, regulations, processes, and assumptions, delayed scientific and technological developments, increased costs, and changes in carbon markets; and

•other risks and uncertainties, including those listed under Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, as filed with the SEC on November 17, 2021, and in other filings we may make from time to time with the SEC.

Given these risks and uncertainties, you are cautioned not to place undue reliance on such forward‑looking statements. The forward‑looking statements contained in this Report are not guarantees of future performance and our actual results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and the development of the industry in which we operate, may differ materially from the forward‑looking statements contained in this Report. In addition, even if our results of operations, financial condition and liquidity, and events in the industry in which we operate, are consistent with the forward‑looking statements contained in this Report, they may not be predictive of results or developments in future periods.

Any forward‑looking statement that we make in this Report speaks only as of the date of such statement. Except as required by law, we do not undertake any obligation to update or revise, or to publicly announce any update or revision to, any of the forward‑looking statements, whether as a result of new information, future events, or otherwise, after the date of this Report.

Evoqua Water Technologies Corp. (referred to herein as the “Company” or “EWT”) is a holding company and does not conduct any business operations of its own. The Company was incorporated on October 7, 2013. On November 6, 2017, the Company completed its initial public offering (“IPO”).

The Business

EWT provides a wide range of product brands and advanced water and wastewater treatment systems and technologies, as well as mobile and emergency water supply solutions and service contract options through its branch network. Headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, EWT is a multinational corporation with operations in the United States (“U.S.”), Canada, the United Kingdom (“UK”), the Netherlands, Germany, Australia, the People’s Republic of China, Singapore and India.

The Company is organizationally structured into two reportable operating segments for the purpose of making operational decisions and assessing financial performance: (i) Integrated Solutions and Services and (ii) Applied Product Technologies.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”). All intercompany transactions have been eliminated. Unless otherwise specified, all dollar and share amounts in these notes are referred to in thousands.

The interim Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”). Certain information and note disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with GAAP have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules. We believe that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. In our opinion, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation of the financial statements have been included, and all adjustments are of a normal and recurring nature. We consistently applied the accounting policies described in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, as filed with the SEC on November 17, 2021 (“2021 Annual Report”), in preparing these Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, with the exception of accounting standard updates described in Note 2, “Recent Accounting Pronouncements.” These Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited financial statements and the notes included in our 2021 Annual Report. Certain prior period amounts have been reclassified to conform to the current period presentation.

2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (the “FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2021-08, Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers, which amends Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 805 to require an acquirer to, at the date of acquisition, recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities acquired in accordance with ASU 2014-9, Revenue from Contracts with Customers (Topic 606) (“Topic 606”), as if the entity had originated the contracts, rather than adjust them to fair value at the acquisition date. The guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and is to be applied prospectively to business combinations occurring on or after the effective date of the amendments. The Company is currently assessing the impact of adoption on the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting, and also issued subsequent amendments to the initial guidance (collectively, “Topic 848”). Topic 848 became effective immediately and expires on December 31, 2022. Topic 848 allows eligible contracts that are modified to be accounted for as a continuation of those contracts, permits companies to preserve their hedge accounting during the transition period and enables companies to make a one-time election to transfer or sell held-to-maturity debt securities that are affected by rate reform. Topic 848 provides optional expedients and exceptions for contracts, hedging relationships and other transactions that reference the London Inter-Bank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) or another reference rate expected to be discontinued because of reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. The Company adopted Topic 848 during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and the adoption did not have a material impact on the Company’s Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements and related disclosures.

3. Variable Interest Entities

Treated Water Outsourcing (“TWO”) was a joint venture between the Company and Nalco Water, an Ecolab company (“Nalco”), in which the Company held a 50% partnership interest. The Company acquired the remaining partnership interest in TWO from Nalco on April 1, 2022. See Note 4, “Acquisitions and Divestitures” for further discussion. Prior to acquisition, the Company was obligated to absorb all risk of loss up to 100% of the joint venture partner’s equity. As such, the Company fully consolidated TWO as a variable interest entity (“VIE”) under ASC Topic No. 810, Consolidation.

The following provides a summary of TWO’s balance sheet as of September 30, 2021, and summarized financial information for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021, and the nine months ended June 30, 2022. As a result of the acquisition of the remaining partnership interest in TWO on April 1, 2022, there is no summarized financial information for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

On October 1, 2019, the Company acquired a 60% investment position in San Diego-based Frontier Water Systems, LLC (“Frontier”). The Frontier acquisition was a VIE because it had insufficient equity to finance its activities due to key assets being assigned to the Company upon acquisition. The Company was the primary beneficiary of Frontier because the Company had the power to direct the activities that most significantly affect Frontier’s economic performance.

In addition, the Company entered into an agreement to purchase the remaining 40% interest in Frontier on or prior to March 30, 2024. This agreement (a) gave holders of the remaining 40% interest in Frontier (the “Minority Owners”) the right to sell to Evoqua up to approximately 10% of the outstanding equity in Frontier at a predetermined price, which right was exercisable by the Minority Owners between January 1, 2021 and February 28, 2021 (the “Option”), and (b) obligated the Company to purchase and the Minority Owners to sell all of the Minority Owners’ remaining interest in Frontier at the fair market value at the time of sale on or prior to March 30, 2024 (the “Purchase Right”). The Company acquired an additional 8% equity interest in Frontier in April 2021. On April 1, 2022, the Company purchased the remaining 32% outstanding equity in Frontier. See Note 4, “Acquisitions and Divestitures” for further discussion.

The following provides a summary of Frontier’s balance sheet as of September 30, 2021, and summarized financial information for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2021, and the nine months ended June 30, 2022. As a result of the acquisition of the remaining equity interest in Frontier on April 1, 2022, there is no summarized financial information for the three months ended June 30, 2022.

4. Acquisitions and Divestitures

Acquisitions support the Company’s strategy of delivering a broad solutions portfolio with robust technology across multiple geographies and end markets. The Company continues to evaluate potential strategic acquisitions of businesses, assets and product lines and believes that capex-like, tuck-in acquisitions present key opportunities within its overall growth strategy.

On April 1, 2022, the Company acquired the remaining 32% interest in Frontier from the Minority Owners for a purchase price of $10,396, which the Company had accrued for as the Purchase Right as of March 31, 2022, making Frontier a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. This followed the Company’s initial acquisition of a 60% equity interest in Frontier in October 2019 and the Company’s acquisition of an additional 8% equity interest in Frontier in April 2021. The total amount paid for the acquisition of Frontier, including those amounts paid in prior periods, was $22,771.

Also on April 1, 2022, the Company acquired the remaining 50% partnership interest in TWO from Nalco for a purchase price of $1,099.

On December 20, 2021, the Company and its indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries Evoqua Water Technologies LLC (“EWT LLC”) and Evoqua Water Technologies Ltd. (together with EWT LLC, the “Buyer”) entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cantel Medical LLC, Mar Cor Purification, Inc., and certain of their affiliates (collectively, the “Sellers”), each wholly-owned subsidiaries of Steris plc, pursuant to which the Buyer agreed to acquire certain assets of the Sellers and assume certain liabilities of the Sellers that are owned or used or arise in connection with the global operation of the Sellers’ renal business (the “Mar Cor Business”) for an aggregate purchase price of $196,300 in cash at closing (the “Purchase Price”), subject to customary adjustments, including for working capital (the “Transaction”). On January 3, 2022, the Company completed the Transaction to acquire the Mar Cor Business for $194,976 paid in cash at closing, following adjustments. The Company utilized cash on hand and borrowed an additional $160,000 under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) to fund the Transaction. The Mar Cor Business is included within the Integrated Solutions and Services segment.

The Purchase Price includes a $12,300 earn out, which is being held in escrow and will be paid, pro rata, to the Sellers if the Mar Cor Business meets certain sales performance goals through December 31, 2022 (the “Earn Out”). Any portion of the Earn Out not paid to the Sellers during the first year following closing of the Transaction will be returned to the Buyer. A Monte Carlo simulation was performed to determine the fair value of an Earn Out asset for the amount expected to be received back from escrow based on the forecasted achievement of the sales performance goals associated with the Earn Out as of the acquisition date. See Note 6, Fair Value Measurements, for further discussion. In addition, approximately $12,965 of the Purchase Price was placed into an escrow account, of which $9,815 is to secure general indemnification claims against the Sellers and $3,150 is for net working capital adjustments. During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company incurred approximately $3,178 in acquisition costs, which are included in General and administrative expense on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations.

The acquisition of the Mar Cor Business has been accounted for using the acquisition method of accounting which requires the assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their respective fair values as of the acquisition date. The table below summarizes the preliminary estimated fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the acquisition date. These preliminary estimates are subject to revision during the measurement period as additional analyses are performed and third-party valuations are finalized, and these differences could have a material impact on the accounting for the business combination.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company completed the divestiture of the resin regeneration assets in Germany (the “Germany Regen Business”) for $356 in cash at closing, resulting in a gain of $193 recognized on the sale. The Germany Regen Business was a part of the Applied Product Technologies segment.

5. Revenue

Performance Obligations

The Company elects to apply the practical expedient to exclude from this disclosure revenue related to performance obligations if the product has an alternative use and the Company does not have an enforceable right to payment for the performance completed to date, including a normal profit margin, in the event of termination for convenience. The Company maintains a backlog of confirmed orders, which totaled approximately $344,633 at June 30, 2022. This backlog represents the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to performance obligations that were unsatisfied or partially unsatisfied as of the end of the reporting period. The Company estimates that the majority of these performance obligations will be satisfied within the next twelve to twenty-four months.

Disaggregation of Revenue

In accordance with Topic 606, the Company disaggregates revenue from contracts with customers into source of revenue, reportable operating segment, and geographical regions. The Company determined that disaggregating revenue into these categories meets the disclosure objective in Topic 606, which is to depict how the nature, amount, timing, and uncertainty of revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.

Contract Balances

The Company performs its obligations under a contract with a customer by transferring products and/or services in exchange for consideration from the customer. The Company receives payments from customers based on a billing schedule as established in its contracts.

Contract assets relate to costs incurred to perform in advance of scheduled billings. Contract liabilities relate to payments received in advance of performance under the contracts. Change in contract assets and liabilities are due to the Company’s performance under the contract.

The tables below provide a roll-forward of contract assets and contract liabilities balances for the periods presented:


	Nine Months Ended June 30,
Contract assets(a)	2022		2021

6. Fair Value Measurements

As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, the fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, and accounts payable approximated carrying values due to the short maturity of these items.

The Company measures the fair value of pension plan assets and liabilities, deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities on a recurring basis pursuant to ASC Topic No. 820, Fair Value Measurement. ASC Topic No. 820 establishes a three‑tier fair value hierarchy, which prioritizes the inputs used in measuring fair value. These tiers include:

Level 1: Quoted prices for identical instruments in active markets.

Level 2: Quoted prices for similar instruments in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar instruments in markets that are not active; and model‑derived valuations whose inputs are observable or whose significant value driver is observable.

Level 3: Unobservable inputs in which little or no market data is available, therefore requiring an entity to develop its own assumptions.

The following table presents the Company’s financial assets and liabilities at fair value. The fair values related to the pension plan assets are determined using net asset value (“NAV”) as a practical expedient, or by information categorized in the fair value hierarchy level based on the inputs used to determine fair value. The reported carrying amounts of deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities and debt approximate their fair values. The Company uses interest rates and other relevant information generated by market transactions involving similar instruments to measure the fair value of these assets and liabilities, therefore all are classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

The pension plan assets and liabilities and deferred compensation plan assets and liabilities are included in Other non‑current assets and Other non‑current liabilities at June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021. The unrealized loss on mutual funds was $2,111 at June 30, 2022.

The Company records contingent consideration arrangements at fair value on a recurring basis, and the associated balances presented as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 are earn-outs related to acquisitions. The fair value of earn-outs related to acquisitions is based on significant unobservable inputs including the achievement of certain performance metrics. Significant changes in these inputs would result in corresponding increases or decreases in the fair value of the earn-out each period until the related contingency has been resolved. Changes in the fair value of the contingent consideration obligations and assets can result from adjustments in the probability of achieving future development steps, sales targets and profitability and are recorded in General and administrative expenses in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded a decrease in the fair value of the earn-out liability related to the prior year acquisition of Water Consulting Specialists, Inc. (“WCSI”) of $25 and $150, respectively. As a result of the Mar Cor Business acquisition on January 3, 2022, the Company recorded an Earn Out asset for $7,824 which represented the fair value of amounts expected to be received back from escrow based on the forecasted achievement of certain sales performance goals at the acquisition date. During the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recorded an increase in the fair value of the Earn Out asset of $2,719 based on updated forecast information. As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, earn-out liabilities related to acquisitions totaled $0 and $150, respectively, and are included in Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, earn-out assets related to

acquisitions total $10,543 and $0, respectively, and are included in Prepaid and other current assets on the Consolidated Balance Sheets.

2021 Credit Agreement

On April 1, 2021, EWT III entered into a Credit Agreement (the “2021 Credit Agreement”) among EWT III, as borrower, EWT II, as parent guarantor, the lenders from time to time party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, and ING Capital, LLC, as sustainability coordinator. The 2021 Credit Agreement provides for a multi-currency senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the U.S. dollar equivalent of $350,000 (the “2021 Revolving Credit Facility”) and a discounted senior secured term (the “2021 Term Loan”) in the amount of $475,000 (together with the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility, the “Senior Facilities”). The 2021 Credit Agreement also provides for a letter of credit sub-facility not to exceed $60,000.

The 2021 Credit Agreement contains customary representations, warranties, affirmative covenants, and negative covenants, including, among other things, a springing maximum first lien leverage ratio of 5.55 to 1.00. The Company did not exceed this ratio during the nine months ended June 30, 2022, does not anticipate exceeding this ratio during the year ending September 30, 2022, and therefore does not anticipate any additional repayments during the year ending September 30, 2022.

The following table summarizes the amount of the Company’s outstanding borrowings and outstanding letters of credit under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021.

Receivables Securitization Program

On April 1, 2021, Evoqua Finance LLC (“Evoqua Finance”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an accounts receivable securitization program (the “Receivables Securitization Program”) consisting of, among other agreements, (i) a Receivables Financing Agreement (the “Receivables Financing Agreement”) among Evoqua Finance, as the borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Receivables Financing Lenders”), PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC Bank”), as administrative agent, EWT LLC, as initial servicer, and PNC Capital Markets LLC (“PNC Markets”), as structuring agent, pursuant to which the lenders have made available to Evoqua Finance a receivables finance facility (the “Securitization Facility”) in an amount up to $150,000 and (ii) a Sale and Contribution Agreement (the “Sale Agreement”) among Evoqua Finance, as purchaser, EWT LLC, as initial servicer and as an originator, and Neptune Benson, Inc., an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, as an originator (together with EWT LLC, the “Originators”).

The Receivables Securitization Program contains certain customary representations, warranties, affirmative covenants, and negative covenants, subject to certain cure periods in some cases, including the eligibility of the receivables being sold by the Originators and securing the loans made by the Receivables Financing Lenders, as well as customary reserve requirements, events of default, termination events, and servicer defaults. The Company was in compliance with all covenants during the nine months ended June 30, 2022, does not anticipate becoming noncompliant during the year ending September 30, 2022, and therefore, subject to limitations arising from collateral availability, does not anticipate any additional repayments during the year ending September 30, 2022.

12. Derivative Financial Instruments

Interest Rate Risk Management

The Company is subject to market risk exposure arising from changes in interest rates on the senior secured credit facilities as well as variable rate equipment financings, which bear interest at rates that are indexed against LIBOR. The Company’s objectives in using interest rate derivatives are to add stability to interest expense and to mitigate its exposure to rising interest rates. As of June 30, 2022, the notional amount of the Company’s interest rate swaps was $531,000.

Foreign Currency Risk Management

The Company’s functional currency is the U.S. dollar. By operating internationally, the Company is subject to foreign currency translation risk associated with converting the foreign operations’ financial statements into U.S. dollars transactions denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar (“foreign currencies”). The Company is also subject to currency risk from transactions denominated in foreign currencies. To mitigate cross-currency transaction risk, the Company analyzes significant exposures where it has receipts or payments in a currency other than the functional currency of its operations, and from time to time may strategically enter into short-term foreign currency forward contracts to lock in some or all of the cash flows associated with these transactions. The Company uses foreign currency derivative contracts in order to manage the effect of exchange fluctuations on forecasted sales and purchases that are denominated in foreign currencies. To mitigate the impact of foreign exchange rate risk, the Company entered into a series of forward contracts designated as cash flow hedges. As of June 30, 2022, the notional amount of the forward contracts was $14,025.

Equity Price Risk Management

The Company is exposed to variability in compensation charges related to certain deferred compensation obligations to employees. Equity price movements affect the compensation expense as certain investments made by the Company’s employees in the deferred compensation plan are revalued. Although not designated as accounting hedges, the Company utilizes derivatives such as total return swaps to economically hedge a portion of this exposure and offset the related compensation expense. As of June 30, 2022, the notional amount of the total return swaps was $4,966.

Credit Risk Management

The counterparties to the Company’s derivative contracts are highly-rated financial institutions. The Company regularly reviews the creditworthiness of its financial counterparties and fully expects the counterparties to perform under their respective agreements. The Company is not subject to any obligations to post collateral under derivative instrument contracts. The Company records all derivative instruments on a gross basis in the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Accordingly, there are no offsetting amounts that net assets against liabilities.

Interest expense	237		(591)		(930)		(1,624)
	$	212	$	(582)	$	(1,041)	$	(1,739)

Based on the fair value amounts of the Company’s cash flow hedges at June 30, 2022, the Company expects that approximately $26 of pre-tax net gains will be reclassified from AOCI into earnings during the next twelve months. The amount ultimately realized, however, will differ as exchange rates vary and the underlying contracts settle.

14. Restructuring and Related Charges

To better align its resources with its growth strategies and reduce its cost structure, the Company commits to various restructuring plans as necessary. The Company has undertaken various restructuring initiatives, including activities to reduce the cost structure and rationalize location footprint following the sale of the Memcor product line, transitioning from a three-segment structure to a two-segment operating model designed to better serve the needs of customers worldwide, and various initiatives within the Integrated Solutions and Services segment to drive efficiency and effectiveness in certain divisions.

The Company currently expects to incur in future periods approximately $2,700 to $3,700 of costs related to restructuring programs initiated in prior periods.

The table below sets forth the amounts accrued for the restructuring components and related activity:


	Nine Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021
Balance at beginning of the period	$	304	$	970
Restructuring charges following the sale of the Memcor product line	942		4,649

Cash payments	(3,551)		(6,349)
Other adjustments	(6)		8
Balance at end of the period	$	1,044	$	702

The balances for accrued restructuring liabilities at June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, are recorded in Accrued expenses and other liabilities on the Consolidated Balance Sheets. Restructuring charges primarily represent severance charges and other employee costs, fixed asset write-offs, and certain relocation expenses. The Company expects to pay the remaining amounts accrued as of June 30, 2022 during the remainder of fiscal 2022.

The table below sets forth the location of amounts recorded above on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations:


	Nine Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021
Cost of product sales and services	$	1,352	$	4,341
General and administrative expense	2,403		1,675
Sales and marketing expense	83		348
Research and development expense	1		(15)
Other operating expense, net	458		690
	$	4,297	$	7,039

The Company continues to evaluate restructuring activities that may result in additional charges in the future.

15. Employee Benefit Plans

The Company maintains multiple employee benefit plans.

Certain of the Company’s employees in the UK were participants in a Siemens defined benefit plan established for employees of a UK-based operation acquired by Siemens in 2004. The plan was frozen with respect to future service credits for active employees, however the benefit formula recognized future compensation increases. The Company agreed to establish a replacement defined benefit plan, with the assets of the Siemens scheme transferring to the new scheme on April 1, 2015.

The Company’s employees in Germany also participate in a defined benefit plan. Assets equaling the plan’s accumulated benefit obligation were transferred to a German defined benefit plan sponsored by the Company upon the acquisition of EWT from Siemens. The German entity also sponsors a defined benefit plan for a small group of employees located in France.

The components of net periodic benefit cost for the plans were as follows:


	Three Months Ended June 30,				Nine Months Ended June 30,
	2022		2021		2022		2021
Service cost	$	215	$	287	$	674	$	858
Interest cost	100		81		315		240
Expected return on plan assets	(122)		(88)		(383)		(262)
Amortization of actuarial losses	156		266		491		640
Pension expense for defined benefit plans	$	349	$	546	$	1,097	$	1,476

The components of pension expense, other than the service cost component which is included in General and administrative expense, are included in the line item Other operating expense in the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations.

16. Income Taxes

Year-to-date income tax expense or benefit is the product of the most current projected annual effective tax rate (“PAETR”) and the actual year-to-date pretax income (loss) adjusted for any discrete tax items. The income tax expense or benefit for a particular quarter, except for the first quarter, is the difference between the year-to-date calculation of income tax expense or benefit and the year-to-date calculation for the prior quarter. Items unrelated to current period ordinary income or (loss) are recognized entirely in the period identified as a discrete item of tax.

Annual Effective Tax Rate

The PAETR, which excludes the impact of discrete items, was 23.1% and 19.7% as of the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. For the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the PAETR was higher than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the mix of earnings between countries, most of which have higher statutory rates than the U.S., which was mostly offset by the impact of maintaining a valuation allowance that is provided on U.S. deferred tax assets. The current year PAETR was higher than the prior year’s rate due to an increase in projected pretax book income in countries with higher statutory tax rates.

The Company continues to maintain a full valuation allowance on U.S. federal and state net deferred tax assets (excluding the tax effects of deferred tax liabilities associated with indefinite lived intangibles) for the period ending June 30, 2022 as a result of pretax losses incurred since the Company’s inception in early 2014. The Company believes it is prudent to retain a valuation allowance until a more consistent pattern of earnings is established and net operating loss carryforwards begin to be utilized.

Current and Prior Period Tax Expense

For the three months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized income tax expense of $5,027 on pretax income of $22,590. The rate of 22.3% differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% as the mix of earnings between countries, most of which have higher statutory tax rates than the U.S., was mostly offset by the impact of maintaining a U.S. valuation allowance that is provided on U.S. deferred tax assets.

For the three months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized income tax expense of $3,887 on pretax income of $17,086. The rate of 22.7% differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% principally due to the impact of maintaining a U.S. valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company recognized income tax expense of $8,896 on pretax income of $39,921. The rate of 22.3% differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% as the mix of earnings between countries, most of which have higher statutory tax rates than the U.S., was mostly offset by the impact of maintaining a U.S. valuation allowance that is provided on U.S. deferred tax assets.

For the nine months ended June 30, 2021, the Company recognized income tax expense of $7,672 on pretax income of $32,430. The rate of 23.7% differed from the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% principally due to the unfavorable impact of discrete items related to an adjustment for prior periods and recording an uncertain tax position related to a tax audit in a foreign jurisdiction which were partially offset by the impact of maintaining a U.S. valuation allowance against U.S. deferred tax assets.

At June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company had gross unrecognized tax benefits of $1,663 and $1,805 respectively.

17. Share-Based Compensation

The Company designs equity compensation plans to attract and retain employees while also aligning employees’ interests with the interests of the Company’s shareholders. In addition, members of the Company’s Board of Directors (the “Board”) participate in equity compensation plans in connection with their service on the Board.

The Company established the Evoqua Water Technologies Corp. Stock Option Plan (the “Stock Option Plan”) on March 6, 2014. The plan allows certain management employees and the Board to purchase shares in the Company. Under the Stock Option Plan, the number of shares available for award was 11,083. As of June 30, 2022, there were approximately 2,177 shares available for future grants, however, the Company does not currently intend to make additional grants under the Stock Option Plan.

In connection with the IPO, the Board adopted, and the Company’s shareholders approved, the Evoqua Water Technologies Corp. 2017 Equity Incentive Plan (the “Equity Incentive Plan”), under which equity awards may be granted in the form of options, restricted stock, restricted stock units (“RSUs”), stock appreciation rights, dividend equivalent rights, share awards, and performance-based awards (including performance share units and performance-based restricted stock).

During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, the Company granted RSUs and performance share units under the Equity Incentive Plan to certain employees of the Company. The final number of performance share units that may be earned is dependent on the Company’s achievement of performance goals related to organic revenue growth dollars and average adjusted EBITDA margin over a three-year measurement period ending September 30, 2024. The final number of performance share units that may be earned is also subject to a total stockholder return (“TSR”) modifier, which operates by increasing or decreasing the total number of shares earned by up to 25% based on the Company’s TSR relative to the TSR of the U.S. constituents of the S&P Global Water Index. In order to receive shares earned at the end of the performance period, the recipient must remain employed by the Company or its subsidiaries through the end of the three-year period (except in the event of retirement, death, disability or, in certain circumstances, related to change in control).

As of June 30, 2022, there were approximately 3,958 shares available for grants under the Equity Incentive Plan.

Outstanding option awards vest ratably at 25% per year, and are exercisable at the time of vesting. The options granted have a ten-year contractual term.

A summary of the stock option activity as of June 30, 2022 is presented below:

The Company recognizes share-based compensation for all currently outstanding awards and, in future periods, will recognize compensation costs for the unvested portion of awards based on grant date fair values. Total share-based compensation expense was $5,818 and $5,526 during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, of which $5,750 and $4,228 was non-cash, respectively. Total share-based compensation expense was $17,220 and $11,816 during the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, of which $16,339 and $10,461 was non-cash, respectively. The unrecognized compensation expense related to stock options, RSUs, and performance share units (measured at a target award level) was $5,591, $24,133 and $9,905, respectively at June 30, 2022, and is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of 1.7 years, 1.9 years and 2.0 years, respectively. The Company received $7,921 from the exercise of stock options during the nine months ended June 30, 2022.

Employee Stock Purchase Plan

Effective October 1, 2018, the Company implemented an employee stock purchase plan (the “ESPP”) which allows employees to purchase shares of the Company’s stock at 85% of the lower of the fair market value on the first or last business day of the applicable six-month offering period. These purchases are offered twice throughout each fiscal year, and are paid by employees through payroll deductions over the respective six month purchase period, at the end of which the stock is transferred to the employees. On December 21, 2018, the Company registered 11,297 shares of common stock, par value $0.01 per share, of which 5,000 are available for future issuance under the ESPP. During the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred compensation expense of $298 and $249, respectively, in salaries and wages with respect to the ESPP, representing the fair value of the discounted price of the shares. During the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company incurred compensation expense of $717 and $652, respectively. These amounts are included in the total share-based compensation expense above. On October 1, 2021 and April 1, 2022, 60 and 48 shares, respectively, were issued under the ESPP.

18. Concentration of Credit Risk

The Company’s cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable are potentially subject to concentration of credit risk. Cash and cash equivalents are placed with financial institutions that management believes are of high credit quality. Accounts receivable are derived from revenue earned from customers located in the U.S. and internationally and

generally do not require collateral. The Company’s trade receivables do not represent a significant concentration of credit risk at June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021 due to the wide variety of customers and markets into which products are sold and their dispersion across geographic areas. The Company does perform ongoing credit evaluations of its customers and maintains an allowance for potential credit losses on trade receivables. As of and for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, no customer accounted for more than 10% of net sales or net accounts receivable.

The Company operates predominantly in nine countries worldwide and provides a wide range of proven product brands and advanced water and wastewater treatment technologies, mobile and emergency water supply solutions, and service contract options through its Integrated Solutions and Services and Applied Product Technologies segments. The Company is a multi-national business but its sales and operations are primarily in the U.S. Sales to unaffiliated customers are transacted with the Company location that maintains the customer relationship.

19. Commitments and Contingencies

Guarantees

From time to time, the Company is required to provide letters of credit, bank guarantees, or surety bonds in support of its commitments and as part of the terms and conditions on water treatment projects. In addition, the Company is required to provide letters of credit or surety bonds to the Department of Environmental Protection or equivalent in some states in order to maintain its licenses to handle toxic substances at certain of its water treatment facilities.

These financial instruments typically expire after all Company commitments have been met, a period typically ranging from twelve months to ten years, or more in some circumstances. The letters of credit, bank guarantees, or surety bonds are arranged through major banks or insurance companies. In the case of surety bonds, the Company generally indemnifies the issuer for all costs incurred if a claim is made against the bond.

The following summarizes the Company’s outstanding letters of credit and surety bonds as of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, respectively.


	June 30, 2022		September 30, 2021
Revolving credit capacity	$	60,000	$	60,000
Letters of credit outstanding	9,529		10,112
Remaining revolving credit capacity	$	50,471	$	49,888

Surety capacity	$	262,090	$	250,000
Surety issuances	129,021		147,845
Remaining surety available	$	133,069	$	102,155

The longest maturity date of letters of credit and surety bonds in effect as of June 30, 2022 was March 20, 2030.

Litigation

From time to time, as a normal incident of the nature and kind of business in which the Company is engaged, various claims or charges are asserted and litigation is commenced against it arising from or related to: product liability; personal injury; trademarks, trade secrets, or other intellectual property; shareholder disputes; labor and employee disputes; commercial or contractual disputes; breach of warranty; or environmental matters. Claimed amounts may be substantial but may not bear any reasonable relationship to the merits of the claim or the extent of any real risk of court or arbitral awards. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters with certainty, and some lawsuits, claims, or proceedings may be disposed or decided unfavorably, the Company does not expect that any asserted or un-asserted legal claims or proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on its results of operations, or financial condition.

21. Business Segments

The Company’s reportable operating segments are defined as components of an enterprise about which separate financial information is available that is evaluated on a regular basis by the chief operating decision maker, or decision making group, in deciding how to allocate resources to an individual segment and in assessing performance. The key factors used to identify these reportable operating segments are the organization and alignment of the Company’s internal operations, the nature of the products and services, and customer type.

The Company has two reportable operating segments, Integrated Solutions and Services and Applied Product Technologies. The business segments are described as follows: Integrated Solutions and Services is a group entirely focused on engaging directly with end users through direct sales with a market vertical focus. Integrated Solutions and Services provides tailored services and solutions in collaboration with the customers backed by life‑cycle services including on‑demand water, outsourced water, recycle / reuse, and emergency response service alternatives to improve operational reliability, performance, and environmental compliance. Key offerings within this segment also include equipment systems for industrial needs (influent water, boiler feed water, ultrahigh purity, process water, wastewater treatment, and recycle / reuse), full-scale outsourcing of operations and maintenance, and municipal services, including odor and corrosion control services. Applied Product Technologies is focused on developing product platforms to be sold primarily through third party channels. This segment primarily engages in indirect sales through independent sales representatives, distributors, and aftermarket channels. Applied Product Technologies provides a range of highly differentiated and scalable products and technologies specified by global water treatment designers, original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”), engineering firms, and integrators. Key offerings within this segment include filtration and separation, disinfection, wastewater solutions, anode and electrochlorination technology, and aquatics technologies and solutions for the global recreational and commercial pool market.

Corporate activities include general corporate expenses, elimination of inter-segment transactions, interest income and expense, and certain other charges. Certain other charges may include restructuring and other business transformation charges that have been undertaken to align and reposition the Company to the current reporting structure, acquisition related costs (including transaction costs and certain integration costs), and share-based compensation charges.

Since certain administrative and other operating expenses and other items have not been allocated to business segments, the results in the below table are not necessarily a measure computed in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles and may not be comparable to other companies.

Reportable operating segment revenue and operating profit for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

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

The following discussion and analysis of our financial condition and results of our operations should be read in conjunction with the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements, including the notes, included in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (this “Report”), and with our audited consolidated financial statements and the related notes thereto in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, as filed with the SEC on November 17, 2021 (the “2021 Annual Report”). You should review the disclosures in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the 2021 Annual Report, as well as any cautionary language in this Report, for a discussion of important factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from the results described in or implied by the forward-looking statements contained in the following discussion and analysis. Unless otherwise indicated or the context otherwise requires, all references to “the Company,” “Evoqua,” “Evoqua Water Technologies Corp.,” “we,” “us,” “our” and similar terms refer to Evoqua Water Technologies Corp., together with its consolidated subsidiaries. Unless otherwise specified, all dollar amounts in this section are referred to in millions.

Overview

We are a leading provider of mission-critical water and wastewater treatment solutions, offering a broad portfolio of products, services, and expertise to support customers across various end markets. We are headquartered in Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania, with locations across nine countries. We have a comprehensive portfolio of differentiated, proprietary technologies offered under market‑leading and well‑established brands. Our core technologies are primarily focused on removing impurities from water, rather than neutralizing them through the addition of chemicals.

Our solutions are designed to provide our customers with the quantity and quality of water necessary to meet their unique specifications. We enable our customers to achieve lower costs through greater uptime, throughput and efficiency in their operations while supporting their regulatory compliance and environmental requirements. We deliver and maintain these mission critical solutions through our extensive North American service network, and we sell our products and technologies internationally through direct and indirect sales channels. We have worked to protect water, the environment, and our employees for more than 100 years. As a result, we have earned a reputation for quality, safety, and reliability around the world. Our employees are united by a common purpose: Transforming water. Enriching life.®

Our vision “to be the world’s first choice for water solutions” and our values of “integrity, customers, sustainable, and performance” foster a culture that is focused on establishing a workforce that is enabled, empowered and accountable, creating a highly dynamic work environment.

We serve our customers through the following two segments:

•Integrated Solutions and Services segment, which provides application-specific solutions and full lifecycle services for critical water and wastewater applications across numerous end markets, including outsourced water service contracts, capital systems, and related recurring aftermarket services, parts and consumables, and emergency services to enable recycle and reuse, improve operational reliability and performance, and promote environmental compliance; and

•Applied Product Technologies segment, which provides highly differentiated and scalable water and wastewater products and technologies as stand-alone offerings or components in integrated solutions to a diverse set of system integrators and end-users globally.

Our segments draw from the same reservoir of leading technologies, shared manufacturing infrastructure, common business processes, and corporate philosophies. The key factors used to identify these reportable operating segments are the organization and alignment of our internal operations, the nature of the products and services and customer type.

Recent Developments, Key Factors and Trends Affecting Our Business and Financial Statements

Our 2021 Annual Report includes a discussion of various key factors and trends that we believe have affected or may affect our operating results. The following discussion highlights recent developments, as well as significant changes in these key factors and trends.

Inflation, material availability and labor shortages. Material, freight, and labor inflation resulted in increased costs in the first three quarters of fiscal 2022, and we expect this trend will continue throughout fiscal 2022 and into fiscal 2023. Although we have offset a portion of these increased costs through price increases and operational efficiencies to date, our margin percentage has been negatively impacted. There can be no assurance that we will be able to continue to offset all or any portion of these increased costs. If we are unable to manage commodity fluctuations through pricing actions, cost savings projects, and sourcing decisions as well as through consistent productivity improvements, it may adversely impact our gross profit and gross margin in future periods. Additionally, supply chain disruptions and labor shortages have restricted and could further restrict availability of certain commodities and materials, which may result in delays in our execution of projects in fiscal 2022 and negatively impact revenues. Tight labor markets have resulted in longer times to fill open positions and labor inflation. Continued delays in filling open positions, particularly among our service technician population, could impact our ability to provide timely service to our customers. Although these factors did not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, if sustained, they could have a material adverse effect on our results of operations going forward.

Impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. We continue to monitor the ongoing effects of the COVID-19 pandemic, particularly as shutdowns and restrictions in parts of China have continued in response to the spread of COVID-19 variants. These shutdowns and restrictions did not have a material adverse effect on our operations or financial results for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022. However, if the duration of these shutdowns and restrictions extends, or if similar shutdowns and restrictions are imposed in other regions, it could impact our sales into those regions and our ability to source materials from those regions.

Although the pandemic negatively impacted sales volume across our business in earlier periods, due primarily to customer site access restrictions, temporary customer site closures, and temporary delays in annual maintenance activities by customers in certain end markets, these factors did not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022. Vaccination requirements imposed by certain of our customers to allow our employees to enter their sites may increase our costs or delay our performance of services for our customers, however this has not materially impacted our results to date.

For more information regarding factors and events that may impact our business, results of operations and financial condition as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, see “Risk Factors-The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely affected, and may continue to adversely affect, our business, financial condition, results of operations, and prospects” included in Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” in the 2021 Annual Report.

Russia-Ukraine war. We have no operations in Russia or Ukraine, and our sales into these regions are minimal. However, the conflict in Ukraine has exacerbated the material inflation and availability challenges described above, particularly with respect to the impact it has had on energy and fuel prices and the price of steel and other precious metals that we procure in our supply chain. Although these factors did not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations for the three and nine months ended June 30, 2022, we expect the inflationary impact on energy, fuel and steel prices to continue throughout fiscal 2022. If these factors are sustained, or if the duration of the conflict is extended or the conflict spreads into a larger geographic portion of Europe, our results of operations in future periods could be materially and adversely impacted.

Acquisitions and divestitures. On December 20, 2021, the Company and its indirect wholly-owned subsidiaries Evoqua Water Technologies LLC (“EWT LLC”) and Evoqua Water Technologies Ltd. (together with EWT LLC, the “Buyer”), entered into an Asset Purchase Agreement (the “Agreement”) with Cantel Medical LLC, Mar Cor Purification, Inc., and certain of their affiliates (collectively, the “Sellers”), each wholly-owned subsidiaries of Steris plc, pursuant to which the Buyer agreed to acquire certain assets of the Sellers and assume certain liabilities of the Sellers that are owned or used or arise in connection with the global operation of the Sellers’ renal business (the “Mar Cor Business”) for an aggregate purchase price of $196.3 million in cash at closing (the “Purchase Price”), subject to customary adjustments, including for working capital (the “Transaction”). On January 3, 2022, we completed the Transaction to acquire the Mar Cor Business for approximately $195.0 million paid in cash at closing, following adjustments. We utilized cash on hand and borrowed an additional $160.0 million under our 2021 Revolving Credit Facility (as defined below) to fund the Transaction. The Purchase Price includes a $12.3 million earn out, which is being held in escrow and will be paid, pro rata, to the Sellers if the Mar Cor Business meets certain sales performance goals (the “Earn Out”). Any portion of the Earn Out not paid to the Sellers during the first year following closing of the Transaction will be returned to us. The Mar

Cor Business is a leading manufacturer and servicer of medical water, commercial and industrial solutions in North America. Headquartered in Plymouth, Minnesota, the Mar Cor Business has 27 service and regeneration facilities in the U.S. and Canada. The Mar Cor Business offers significant technical expertise in designing, building, and servicing high-purity water treatment systems. The addition of this business expands our service footprint in North America, furthering our reach into the healthcare vertical market. During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, we incurred approximately $3.2 million in acquisition costs, which are included in General and administrative expense on the Unaudited Consolidated Statements of Operations. Additionally, we expect to incur between $18.0 million to $20.0 million in one-time integration costs within the following 18 to 24 months. The Mar Cor Business is included within the Integrated Solutions and Services segment.

During the nine months ended June 30, 2022, we completed the divestiture of certain resin regeneration assets in Germany (the “Germany Regen Business”) for approximately $0.4 million in cash at closing, resulting in a gain of $0.2 million recognized on the sale. The Germany Regen Business was a part of the Applied Product Technologies segment.

On April 1, 2022, we acquired the remaining 32% equity interest in Frontier Water Systems, LLC (“Frontier”) for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $10.4 million, making Frontier a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. This followed our initial acquisition of a 60% equity interest in Frontier in October 2019 and our acquisition of an additional 8% equity interest in Frontier in April 2021. San Diego-based Frontier is a leading supplier of engineered equipment packages for high-rate treatment of selenium, nitrate, and metals in water and wastewater. The business adds to Evoqua’s portfolio of advanced wastewater treatment technologies and is part of our Integrated Solutions and Services segment.

Also on April 1, 2022, we acquired the remaining 50% partnership interest in Treated Water Outsourcing, a joint venture between the Company and Nalco Water, an Ecolab company (“Nalco”), from Nalco for an aggregate purchase price of approximately $1.1 million.

On July 1, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Smith Engineering, Inc. (“Smith Engineering”) for approximately $18.9 million cash paid at closing. Smith Engineering is a leader in the design, manufacturing, and service of custom high purity water treatment equipment serving the biotech/pharmaceutical, data center, food and beverage, healthcare, medical device, and microelectronics markets. With over 1,200 customers in North America, Smith Engineering offers a variety of water treatment products and services, including filtration, UV, reverse osmosis, and deionization.

On July 15, 2022, we completed the acquisition of Epicor, Inc. (“Epicor”) for $4.3 million cash paid at closing. Epicor has supplied specialty resins for power steam system treatment for fifty years. The resins provide a cost-effective and efficient method for creating and maintaining a continual supply of ultra-pure water for power plants.

We continue to actively evaluate acquisition opportunities that are consistent with our business strategy. We maintain a robust pipeline of potential acquisition targets, developed by our management team as well as various outside industry experts and consultants.

How We Assess the Performance of Our Business

In assessing the performance of our business, we consider a variety of performance and financial measures. The key indicators of the financial condition and operating performance of our consolidated business are revenue, gross profit, gross margin, and net income (loss). Management utilizes these financial measures prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“GAAP”) when reviewing the Company’s performance and making financial, operational, and strategic decisions, and believes they are useful metrics for investors that help with performance comparability period over period. In addition, we consider certain non-GAAP financial measures such as adjusted EBITDA and organic revenue, as described more fully below. We evaluate our business segments’ operating results based on revenue, income from operations (“operating profit”), and adjusted EBITDA on a segment basis. We believe these financial measures are helpful in understanding and evaluating the segments’ core operating results and facilitates comparison of our performance on a consistent basis period over period.

Revenue and Organic Revenue

Our revenue is a function of sales volumes and selling prices. We report revenue by segment and by source which includes revenue from product sales (capital and aftermarket) and revenue from service. Revenue is used by management

to evaluate the performance of our business. Organic revenue, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as revenue excluding the impact of foreign currency translation and inorganic revenue. Inorganic revenue represents the impact from acquisitions and divestitures during the first 12 months following the closing of the acquisition or divestiture. Divestitures include sales of insignificant portions of our business that did not meet the criteria for classification as a discontinued operation. We exclude the effect of foreign currency translation from organic sales because foreign currency translation is not under management’s control, is subject to volatility and can obscure underlying business trends. We exclude the effect of acquisitions and divestitures during the first 12 months following the closing of the acquisition or divestiture because they can obscure underlying business trends and make comparisons of long-term performance difficult between the Company and its peers due to the varying nature, size, and number of transactions from period to period. Management believes that reporting organic revenue provides useful information to investors by helping identify underlying growth trends in our core business and facilitating easier comparisons of our revenue performance with prior and future periods and to our peers. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” in this Item 2 for a reconciliation of organic revenue to revenue.

EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA

EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax benefit (expense), and depreciation and amortization. Adjusted EBITDA, which is a non-GAAP financial measure, is one of the primary metrics used by management to evaluate the strength and financial performance of our core business. Adjusted EBITDA is defined as net income (loss) before interest expense, income tax benefit (expense), and depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the impact of certain other items, including restructuring and related business transformation costs, share-based compensation, transaction costs, and other gains, losses, and expenses that we believe do not directly reflect our underlying business operations. We present adjusted EBITDA because we believe it is frequently used by analysts, investors, and other interested parties to evaluate and compare operating performance and value companies within our industry. Further, we believe it is helpful in highlighting trends in our operating results and provides greater clarity and comparability period over period to management and our investors regarding the operational impact of long-term strategic decisions regarding capital structure, the tax jurisdictions in which we operate, and capital investments. In addition, adjusted EBITDA highlights true business performance by removing the impact of certain items that management believes do not directly reflect our underlying operations and provides investors with greater visibility into the ongoing drivers of our business performance.

Management uses adjusted EBITDA to supplement GAAP measures of performance as follows:

•to assist investors and analysts in comparing our operating performance across reporting periods on a consistent basis by excluding items that we do not believe are indicative of our core operating performance;

•in our management incentive compensation, which is based in part on components of adjusted EBITDA;

•in certain calculations under our senior secured credit facilities, which use components of adjusted EBITDA;

•to evaluate the effectiveness of our business strategies;

•to make budgeting decisions; and

•to compare our performance against that of other peer companies using similar measures.

In addition to the above, our chief operating decision maker uses adjusted EBITDA of each reportable operating segment as a supplement to segment income from operations and segment revenue to evaluate the operating performance of such segments. Adjusted EBITDA on a segment basis is defined as earnings before depreciation and amortization, adjusted for the impact of certain other items that have been reflected at the segment level. Adjusted EBITDA of the reportable operating segments do not include certain charges that are presented within corporate activities. These charges include certain restructuring and other business transformation charges that have been incurred to align and reposition the Company to the current reporting structure, acquisition related costs (including transaction costs and integration costs) and share-based compensation charges.

EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA should not be considered substitutes for, or superior to, financial measures prepared in accordance with GAAP. The financial results prepared in accordance with GAAP and the reconciliations from these

results should be carefully evaluated. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” in this Item 2 for a reconciliation of EBITDA and adjusted EBITDA to net income. You are encouraged to evaluate each adjustment and the reasons we consider it appropriate for supplemental analysis. In addition, in evaluating adjusted EBITDA, you should be aware that in the future, we may incur expenses similar to the adjustments in the presentation of adjusted EBITDA. Our presentation of adjusted EBITDA should not be construed as an inference that our future results will be unaffected by unusual or non-recurring items. In addition, other companies in our industry or across different industries may calculate adjusted EBITDA differently.

Consolidated Results for the Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

Revenue-Revenue increased $69.6 million, or 18.8%, to $439.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $369.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. Revenue from product sales increased $49.6 million, or 22.7%, to $268.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $218.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. Revenue from services increased $20.0 million, or 13.2%, to $171.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $151.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021.

The following tables provide the change in revenue by offering and the change in revenue by driver during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021:

(1)Organic revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a reconciliation to total revenue, its most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, see “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” in Item 2 of this Report.

The increase in organic revenue was driven by favorable price realization and higher volume for products and services across most product lines and all regions.

Revenue in future periods could be negatively impacted by commodity and material availability constraints caused by global supply chain disruptions, skilled labor shortages, and the timing of projects.

Cost of sales and gross margin-Total gross margin decreased slightly to 31.0% in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from 31.6% in the three months ended June 30, 2021.

The following table provides the change in cost of product sales and cost of services, respectively, along with related gross margins:


	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2022				2021
(In millions)			Gross Margin				Gross Margin
Cost of product sales	$	(185.7)	30.7	%	$	(152.6)	30.1	%
Cost of services	(117.5)		31.4	%	(100.1)		33.8	%
	$	(303.2)	31.0	%	$	(252.7)	31.6	%

Gross margin from product sales increased by 60 basis points (“bps”) to 30.7% in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from 30.1% in the three months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was driven by favorable volume, mix, and positive price realization, which was partially offset by labor, material, and freight inflation.

Gross margin from services decreased by 240 bps to 31.4% in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from 33.8% in the three months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was driven by increased labor costs and resource constraints.

We expect continued pressure on gross margin in future periods due to material, freight and labor inflation. Although we expect to continue to partially offset those increasing costs with positive price realization, there can be no assurance that we will be able to do so.

Operating expenses-Operating expenses increased $15.8 million, or 17.5%, to $105.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $90.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. Operating expenses are comprised of the following:


	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2022				2021
(In millions)			% of Revenue				% of Revenue		% Variance
General and administrative expense	$	(61.4)	(14.0)	%	$	(50.8)	(13.7)	%	20.9	%
Sales and marketing expense	(40.6)		(9.2)	%	(35.9)		(9.7)	%	13.1	%
Research and development expense	(3.9)		(0.9)	%	(3.4)		(0.9)	%	14.7	%
Total operating expenses	$	(105.9)	(24.1)	%	$	(90.1)	(24.4)	%	17.5	%

The increase period over period in operating expenses was primarily due to foreign currency translation losses in the current period, compared to foreign currency translation gains in the prior period, most of which is related to intercompany loans. The increase was also due to increased employee related expenses as well as increased operating and amortization expense due to the acquisition of the Mar Cor Business in the current year. In addition, there were increased consulting, information technology, and travel expenses compared to the prior period. The above increases were partially offset by a decrease in external legal fees compared to the prior period, as well as certain benefits in the current period related to the acquisition of the Mar Cor Business, which we expect to be non-recurring in nature.

Fluctuations in foreign currency translation and inflation could impact operating expenses in future periods.

Other operating income, net-Other operating income, net, decreased $0.6 million to $0.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $1.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was driven by COVID-19 pandemic subsidies received from the Canadian government in the prior period, which did not reoccur in the current period. This was partially offset by an increase in income from the disposal of fixed assets compared to the prior period.

Interest expense-Interest expense decreased $2.8 million, or 25.0%, to $8.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $11.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in interest expense was primarily driven by $3.1 million of fees incurred in the prior period as a result of the April 2021 refinancing of our senior credit facility, which also resulted in the write off of $1.3 million of deferred financing fees in the prior period, which did not reoccur in

the current period. This decrease was partially offset by an increase in interest expense associated with higher outstanding debt.

Income tax expense-Income tax expense increased to $5.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to income tax expense of $3.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in tax expense was primarily due to higher earnings in non-U.S. tax jurisdictions, which generally increases tax expense.

Net income-Net income increased $4.4 million, or 33.3%, to $17.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $13.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021, as a result of the variances noted above.

Adjusted EBITDA-Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA for the three months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $10.8 million, or 16.3%, to $77.0 million, as compared to $66.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, primarily driven by sales volume, favorable price realization, and mix, which was partially offset by inflationary costs. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” in Item 2 of this Report for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA.

(1)Segment organic revenue is a non-GAAP financial measure. For a reconciliation to total segment revenue, its most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP, see “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” in Item 2 of this Report.

The increase in organic revenue was driven by favorable price realization and higher sales volume, primarily related to service and aftermarket revenue across most end markets which offset a slight decline in capital revenue. The decline in capital revenue was related to the timing of projects in the chemical processing end market, which was partially offset by increases in microelectronics and life sciences end markets.

Operating profit in the Integrated Solutions and Services segment increased $2.1 million, or 5.6%, to $39.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $37.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021.

Operating profit was favorably impacted by the acquisition of the Mar Cor Business, as well as higher organic sales volume and favorable price realization. These increases were partially offset by operational variances, including labor, material, and freight inflation and availability, as well as COVID-19 pandemic subsidies received from the Canadian government in the prior period, which did not reoccur in the current period.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA in the Integrated Solutions and Services segment increased $7.8 million, or 13.9%, to $64.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $56.3 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was driven by the same factors that impacted operating profit, other than the change in depreciation and amortization, and also excludes restructuring and other non-recurring activity. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” in Item 2 of this Report for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA.

Applied Product Technologies

Revenue in the Applied Product Technologies segment increased $11.9 million, or 9.2%, to $141.9 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $130.0 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021.

The following tables provide the change in revenue by offering and the change in revenue by driver during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 for the Applied Product Technologies segment:

The increase in organic revenue was driven by strong sales volume and price realization across all regions and most end markets.

Operating profit in the Applied Product Technologies segment increased $5.9 million, or 26.0%, to $28.6 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $22.7 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021.

The increase in operating profit was primarily due to favorable sales volume, mix, and price realization across multiple product lines and regions, which were partially offset by unfavorable operational variances, including labor, material, and freight inflation and availability.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA in the Applied Product Technologies segment increased $4.4 million, or 15.5%, to $32.8 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $28.4 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was driven by the same factors that impacted operating profit, other than the change in depreciation and amortization, and also excludes restructuring and other non-recurring activity. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” in Item 2 of this Report for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA.

Corporate

Operating loss in Corporate increased $5.3 million, or 16.5%, to $37.5 million in the three months ended June 30, 2022, from $32.2 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to foreign currency translation losses in the current period, compared to foreign currency translation gains in the prior period, most of which is related to intercompany loans. Additionally, there were increased employment expenses, including share-based compensation. These were partially offset by lower costs associated with legal matters in the current period.

Consolidated Results for the Nine Months Ended June 30, 2022 and 2021

Revenue-Revenue increased $193.9 million, or 18.7%, to $1,232.3 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $1,038.4 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021. Revenue from product sales increased $139.4 million, or 23.2%, to $740.3 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $600.9 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

	$	1,232.3	100.0	%	$	1,038.4	100.0	%	$	193.9	18.7	%

The increase in organic revenue was driven by higher sales volume across most product lines and regions, as well as favorable price realization.

Cost of sales and gross margin-Total gross margin decreased to 30.5% in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from 30.7% in the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

The following table provides the change in cost of product sales and cost of services, respectively, along with related gross margins:


	Nine Months Ended June 30,
		2022	2021
(In millions)					Gross Margin				Gross Margin
Cost of product sales			$	(524.9)	29.1	%	$	(428.2)	28.7	%
Cost of services			(331.9)		32.5	%	(291.9)		33.3	%
			$	(856.8)	30.5	%	$	(720.1)	30.7	%

Gross margin from product sales increased by 40 bps to 29.1% in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from 28.7% in the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in gross margin was primarily driven by favorable price realization and product mix. These factors were partially offset by labor, material and freight inflation.

Gross margin from services decreased by 80 bps to 32.5% in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from 33.3% in the nine months ended June 30, 2021. This decrease was driven by increased labor costs and resource constraints.

Operating expenses-Operating expenses increased $54.6 million, or 21.0%, to $314.2 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $259.6 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021. Operating expenses are comprised of the following:


	Nine Months Ended June 30,
		2022	2021
(In millions)					% of Revenue				% of Revenue		% Variance
General and administrative expense			$	(186.2)	(15.1)	%	$	(146.1)	(14.1)	%	27.4	%
Sales and marketing expense			(116.9)		(9.5)	%	(103.6)		(10.0)	%	12.8	%
Research and development expense			(11.1)		(0.9)	%	(9.9)		(1.0)	%	12.1	%
Total operating expenses			$	(314.2)	(25.5)	%	$	(259.6)	(25.0)	%	21.0	%

The increase period over period in operating expenses was primarily due to higher employee related expenses associated with labor inflation. Foreign currency translation losses in the current period, compared to foreign currency translation gains in the prior period, most of which is related to intercompany loans, also contributed to this increase. In addition, there were increased consulting and travel expenses, and increased amortization and operating expense due to acquisitions in the current period compared to the prior period. The above increases were partially offset by a decrease in external legal fees compared to the prior period, as well as a benefit in the current period related to changes in the estimate of the Mar Cor Business achieving the earn-out target.

Fluctuations in foreign currency translation and inflation could impact operating expenses in future periods.

Other operating income, net-Other operating income, net, increased $1.6 million to $3.6 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $2.0 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021. This increase was driven by income from precious metal sales, mainly from scrapped anodes in China, as well as gains on the disposal of fixed assets compared to the prior period. Additionally, we received a refund of certain taxes paid from the Chinese government in the current period, which partially offset COVID-19 pandemic subsidies received from the Canadian government in the prior period, which did not reoccur in the current period.

Interest expense-Interest expense decreased $3.3 million, or 11.7%, to $25.0 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $28.3 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease in interest expense was primarily driven by a $100.0 million debt prepayment in conjunction with the April 2021 refinancing of our senior credit facility, as well as a reduction in the interest rate spread and LIBOR year over year. As a result of the April 2021 refinancing, an additional $3.1 million of fees and a write off of $1.3 million of deferred financing fees were incurred in the prior period. This decrease was partially offset by a fair value increase of $2.1 million in the purchase right liability to acquire the remaining equity interest of Frontier in the current period, as well as an increase in interest expense associated with higher outstanding debt.

Income tax expense-Income tax expense increased $1.2 million to $8.9 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $7.7 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in tax expense was primarily due to higher earnings in non-U.S. tax jurisdictions, which generally increases tax expense, partially offset by discrete tax expense in the prior year that did not reoccur in the current year.

Net income-Net income increased $6.3 million, or 25.5%, to $31.0 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $24.7 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021, as a result of the variances noted above.

Adjusted EBITDA-Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 increased by $35.5 million, or 21.0%, to $204.5 million, as compared to $169.0 million for the nine months ended June 30, 2021, primarily driven by sales volume and related gross profit. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” in Item 2 of this Report for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA.

The increase in organic revenue was driven by higher sales volume across capital, aftermarket, and service, as well as favorable price realization.

Operating profit in the Integrated Solutions and Services segment increased $18.4 million, or 19.4%, to $113.3 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $94.9 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

Operating profit growth was driven by higher organic sales volume and mix as well as favorable price realization. These increases were partially offset by operational variances, including labor and material inflation and availability, as well as COVID-19 pandemic subsidies received from the Canadian government in the prior period, which did not reoccur in the current period. Acquisitions also contributed to the increase in operating profit, primarily associated with the impact of the Mar Cor Business.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA in the Integrated Solutions and Services segment increased $32.6 million, or 21.9%, to $181.4 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $148.8 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was driven by the same factors that impacted operating profit, other than the change in depreciation and amortization, and also excludes restructuring and other non-recurring activity. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” in Item 2 of this Report for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA.

Applied Product Technologies

Revenue in the Applied Product Technologies segment increased $35.1 million, or 9.8%, to $395.0 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $359.9 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

The increase in organic revenue was driven by sales mix, volume growth, and price across all regions and multiple product lines.

Operating profit in the Applied Product Technologies segment increased $15.2 million, or 28.0%, to $69.4 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $54.2 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

The increase in operating profit was primarily due to favorable sales volumes and mix across multiple product lines and regions, partially offset by unfavorable operational variances, including project variances and labor and material inflation and availability.

Adjusted EBITDA is a non-GAAP financial measure. Adjusted EBITDA in the Applied Product Technologies segment increased $9.4 million, or 12.9%, to $82.0 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, compared to $72.6 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was driven by the same factors that impacted operating profit, other than the change in depreciation and amortization, and also excludes restructuring and other non-recurring activity. See “Non-GAAP Reconciliations” in Item 2 of this Report for a reconciliation of adjusted EBITDA.

Corporate

Operating loss in Corporate increased $29.4 million, or 33.3%, to $117.8 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, from $88.4 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021. The increase was primarily due to foreign currency translation losses in the current period, compared to foreign currency translation gains in the prior period, most of which is related to intercompany loans. Additionally, there were increased employment expenses, including share-based compensation. These were partially offset by lower costs associated with legal matters in the current year.

(a)Restructuring and related business transformation costs

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated prior to considering certain restructuring or business transformation events. These events may occur over extended periods of time, and in some cases it is reasonably possible that they could reoccur in future periods based on reorganizations of the business, cost reduction or productivity improvement needs, or in response to economic conditions. For the periods presented such events include the following:

(i)Certain costs and expenses in connection with various restructuring initiatives, including severance and other employee-related costs, relocation and facility consolidation costs, and third-party consultant costs to assist with these initiatives. This includes:

(A)amounts related to the Company’s restructuring initiatives to reduce the cost structure and rationalize location footprint following the sale of the Memcor product line;

(B)amounts related to the Company’s transition from a three-segment structure to a two-segment operating model designed to better serve the needs of customers worldwide; and

(C)amounts related to various other initiatives implemented to restructure and reorganize our business with the appropriate management team and cost structure.

(ii)Legal settlement costs and intellectual property related fees including fees and settlement costs associated with legacy matters, related to product warranty litigation on MEMCOR® products and certain discontinued products. Memcor ® is a trademark of Rohm & Haas Electronic Materials Singapore Pte. Ltd.

(iii)Expenses associated with our information technology and functional infrastructure transformation, including activities to optimize information technology systems and functional infrastructure processes.

(iv)Costs associated with the secondary public offering of common stock held by certain shareholders of the Company, as well as costs incurred by us in connection with establishment of our public company compliance structure and processes, including consultant costs.

(b)Purchase accounting adjustment costs

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated prior to considering adjustments for the effect of the purchase accounting step-up in the value of inventory to fair value recognized in cost of goods sold as a result of the acquisition of the Mar Cor Business. See Note 4, “Acquisitions,” in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for further detail.

(c)Share-based compensation

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated prior to considering share‑based compensation expenses related to equity awards. See Note 17, “Share-Based Compensation,” in Part I, Item 1 of this Report for further detail.

(d)Transaction costs

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated prior to considering transaction, integration and restructuring costs associated with business combinations because these costs are unique to each transaction and represent costs that were incurred as a result of the transaction decision. Integration and restructuring costs associated with a business combination may occur over several years and include, but are not limited to, consulting fees, legal fees, certain employee-related costs, facility consolidation and product rationalization costs, and fair value changes associated with contingent consideration.

(e)Other losses (gains) and expenses

Adjusted EBITDA is calculated prior to considering certain other significant losses (gains) and expenses. For the periods presented such events include the following:

(i)impact of foreign exchange gains and losses;

(ii)charges incurred by the Company related to product rationalization in its electro-chlorination business;

(iii)amounts related to the sale of the Memcor product line;

(iv)expenses incurred by the Company as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, including additional charges for personal protective equipment, increased costs for facility sanitization and one-time payments to certain employees;

(v)legal fees incurred in excess of amounts covered by the Company’s insurance related to securities litigation and an SEC investigation; and

(vi)loss on divestiture of the Lange product line.

We do not present net income on a segment basis because we do not allocate interest expense or income tax benefit (expense) to our segments, making operating profit the most comparable GAAP metric. The following is a reconciliation of our segment EBITDA and segment adjusted EBITDA to operating profit, their most directly comparable financial measure presented in accordance with GAAP:

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity describes the ability of a company to borrow or generate sufficient cash flows to meet the cash requirements of its business operations, including working capital needs, debt service, acquisitions, other commitments and contractual obligations. Our principal sources of liquidity are cash generated by our operating activities, borrowings under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility, and financing arrangements related to capital expenditures for equipment used to provide services to our customers. Historically, we have financed our operations primarily from these sources. Our primary cash needs are for day to day operations, to pay interest and principal on our indebtedness, to fund working capital requirements, and to make capital expenditures.

Our ability to fund our capital needs depends on our ongoing ability to generate cash from operations and access to bank financing and the capital markets. In support of international operations, portions of our cash balances are held in various currencies and may be subject to foreign currency translation and other costs associated with repatriation, if necessary. Although neither moderate increases in net working capital nor the COVID-19 pandemic have materially impacted our liquidity to date, we plan to continue to evaluate aspects of our spending, including capital expenditures, discretionary spending, and strategic investments. We believe we are currently well-positioned to manage our business and have the ability and sufficient capacity to meet our cash requirements by using available cash, internally generated funds, and borrowing under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility.

As part of our ongoing efforts to improve our cash flow and related liquidity, we work with suppliers to optimize our terms and conditions, including occasionally extending payment terms. We also facilitate a voluntary supply chain finance program (the “program”) to provide certain of our suppliers with the opportunity to sell receivables due from us to participating financial institutions at the sole discretion of both the suppliers and the financial institutions. A third party administers the program; our responsibility is limited to making payments on the terms originally negotiated with our supplier, regardless of whether the supplier sells its receivable to a financial institution. We do not enter into agreements with any of the participating financial institutions in connection with the program. The range of payment terms we negotiate with our suppliers is consistent, irrespective of whether a supplier participates in the program. The amounts settled through the program and paid to participating financial institutions were $29.5 million and $27.4 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. A downgrade in our credit rating or changes in the financial markets could limit the financial institutions’ willingness to commit to participation in the program.

We expect to continue to finance our liquidity requirements through internally generated funds, borrowings under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility and equipment financing arrangements. We believe that our projected cash flows generated from operations, together with borrowings under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility, and other financing arrangements are sufficient to fund our principal debt payments, interest expense, our working capital needs, and our expected capital expenditures for the next twelve months. Our capital expenditures for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 were $58.7 million and $54.1 million, respectively. However, our budgeted capital expenditures can vary from period to period based on the nature of capital intensive project awards. Our focus on customer outsourced water projects will continue to be a driver of capital expenditures. From time to time, we may enter into financing arrangements related to capital expenditures for equipment used to provide services to our customers. During the nine months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, we entered into equipment financing arrangements totaling $30.3 million and $25.4 million, respectively. In addition, we may draw on the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility from time to time to fund or partially fund an acquisition.

As of June 30, 2022, we had total indebtedness of $936.2 million, including $470.3 million of term loan borrowings under the 2021 Credit Agreement, $211.1 million outstanding under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility, $138.0 million outstanding under the Securitization Facility, which includes $0.1 million of accrued interest, and $116.8 million in borrowings related to equipment financing. We also had $9.5 million of letters of credit issued under our 2021 Revolving Credit Facility as of June 30, 2022.

As of June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021, we were in compliance with the covenants contained in the 2021 Credit Agreement, including the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility.

2021 Credit Agreement

On April 1, 2021, EWT III entered into a Credit Agreement (the “2021 Credit Agreement”) among EWT III, as borrower, EWT II, as parent guarantor, the lenders from time to time party thereto, JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as administrative agent and collateral agent, and ING Capital, LLC, as sustainability coordinator. The 2021 Credit Agreement provides for a multi-currency senior secured revolving credit facility in an aggregate principal amount not to exceed the U.S. dollar equivalent of $350.0 million (the “2021 Revolving Credit Facility”) and a discounted senior secured term (the “2021 Term Loan”) in the amount of $475.0 million (together with the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility, the “Senior Facilities”). The 2021 Credit Agreement also provides for a letter of credit sub-facility not to exceed $60.0 million.

Receivables Securitization Program

On April 1, 2021, Evoqua Finance LLC (“Evoqua Finance”), an indirect wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, entered into an accounts receivable securitization program (the “Receivables Securitization Program”) consisting of, among other agreements, (i) a Receivables Financing Agreement (the “Receivables Financing Agreement”) among Evoqua Finance, as the borrower, the lenders from time to time party thereto (the “Receivables Financing Lenders”), PNC Bank, National Association (“PNC Bank”), as administrative agent, EWT LLC, as initial servicer, and PNC Capital Markets LLC (“PNC Markets”), as structuring agent, pursuant to which the lenders have made available to Evoqua Finance a receivables finance facility (the “Securitization Facility”) in an amount up to $150.0 million and (ii) a Sale and Contribution Agreement (the “Sale Agreement”) among Evoqua Finance, as purchaser, EWT LLC, as initial servicer and as an originator, and Neptune Benson, Inc., an indirectly wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company, as an originator (together with EWT LLC, the “Originators”).

The Receivables Securitization Program contains certain customary representations, warranties, affirmative covenants, and negative covenants, subject to certain cure periods in some cases, including the eligibility of the Receivables being sold by the Originators and securing the loans made by the Receivables Financing Lenders, as well as customary reserve requirements, events of default, termination events, and servicer defaults. The Company was in compliance with all covenants during the nine months ended June 30, 2022, does not anticipate becoming noncompliant during the year ending September 30, 2022, and therefore, subject to collateral availability, does not anticipate any additional repayments during the year ending September 30, 2022.

Evoqua Water Technologies Corp. is a holding company and does not conduct any business operations of its own. As a result, our ability to pay cash dividends on our common stock, if any, is dependent upon cash dividends and distributions and other transfers from our operating subsidiaries. Under the terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement, our operating subsidiaries are currently limited in their ability to pay cash dividends to us, and we expect these limitations to continue in the future under the terms of any future credit agreement or any future debt or preferred equity securities of ours or of our subsidiaries.

Our indebtedness could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital, limit our ability to react to changes in the economy or our industry, expose us to interest rate risk, and prevent us from meeting our obligations.

Contractual Obligations

We presented our contractual obligations in Part II, Item 7, “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, as filed with the SEC on November 17, 2021. There were no significant changes in our contractual obligations during the nine months ended June 30, 2022.

On January 3, 2022, we borrowed an additional $160 million under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility. We are required to pay a commitment fee based on the daily unused portion of the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility, as well as certain other fees to agents and the arrangers under the Senior Facilities. Subject to the terms of the 2021 Credit Agreement, to the extent not previously paid, any amount owed under the 2021 Revolving Credit Facility will become due and payable in full on April 1, 2026.

Cash Flows

The following table summarizes the changes to our cash flows for the periods presented:


	Nine Months Ended June 30,
(In millions)	2022		2021
Statement of Cash Flows Data
Net cash provided by operating activities	$	86.9	$	102.9
Net cash used in investing activities	(264.8)		(74.4)
Net cash provided by (used in) financing activities	172.8		(83.0)
Effect of exchange rate changes on cash	(3.3)		3.0

Change in cash and cash equivalents	$	(8.4)	$	(51.5)

Operating Activities

Cash flows from operating activities can fluctuate significantly from period‑to‑period as working capital needs and the timing of payments for restructuring activities and other items impact reported cash flows.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $86.9 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, and $102.9 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

•Operating cash flows in the nine months ended June 30, 2022 reflect an increase in net earnings of $6.3 million as compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2021.

•The add back of non‑cash items increased operating cash flows by $123.3 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to an increase to operating cash flows of $96.0 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021, resulting in an increase of $27.3 million. This increase was primarily related to the add back of foreign currency losses in the current period, compared to the deduction of foreign currency gains in the prior period, as well as an increase in depreciation and amortization, and share-based compensation expenses in the current period. Non-cash changes also include deferred income taxes, amortization of deferred financing fees, gains and losses on sale of businesses, and gains and losses on sale of property, plant, and equipment.

•The aggregate of receivables, inventories, contract assets and liabilities, and accounts payable used $32.6 million in operating cash flows in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, compared to providing $11.5 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021, resulting in a decrease to cash flows of $44.1 million as compared to the prior year period.

The amount of cash flow generated from or used by the above mentioned accounts depends upon how effectively we manage our cash conversion cycle, which is a representation of the number of days that elapse from the date of purchase of raw materials and components to the collection of cash from customers. Our cash conversion cycle can be significantly impacted by the timing of collections and payments in a period.

•The aggregate of the remaining assets and liabilities used $36.4 million of operating cash flows in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, compared to using $26.9 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021, resulting in a decrease to cash flows of $9.5 million. This is mainly due to timing of cash receipts on long-term receivables.

•Income taxes provided $1.5 million of operating cash flow during the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to using $2.5 million during the nine months ended June 30, 2021, resulting in an increase to cash flows of $4.0 million as compared to the prior year period.

Investing Activities

Net cash used in investing activities was $264.8 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to net cash used in investing activities of $74.4 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021, resulting in a net decrease to cash flow of $190.4 million as compared to the prior year period. This decrease was largely driven by cash outflow associated with the acquisition of the Mar Cor Business, as well as the acquisitions of the remaining interest of Frontier and TWO in the current period.

Financing Activities

Net cash provided by financing activities was $172.8 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to using $83.0 million in the nine months ended June 30, 2021, resulting in a net increase to cash flow of $255.8 million as compared to the prior year period. The increase in cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2022 was primarily due to the debt refinancing activities that occurred in the prior period, as well as an increased issuance of debt compared to the prior period. This increase was partially offset by an increase of taxes paid related to net share settlements of share-based compensation awards compared to the prior period. Lastly, cash received from the issuance of common stock in connection with the exercise of stock options declined compared to the prior period.

Seasonality

Our business may exhibit seasonality resulting from our customers’ increasing demand for our products and services during the spring and summer months as compared to the fall and winter months. For example, we generally experience increased demand for our odor control product lines and services in the warmer months which, together with other factors, typically results in improved performance in the second half of our fiscal year. Inclement weather and extreme weather events, such as hurricanes, winter storms, droughts, and floods, can also have varying impacts on our business. Certain events may cause customer shutdowns that prevent or defer our performance of services or sale of equipment,

while other events may drive increased demand for our products and services, particularly emergency response services. As a result, our results from operations may vary from period to period, and past performance should not be considered indicative of future results.

Off‑Balance Sheet Arrangements

We had the following outstanding under our credit arrangements at June 30, 2022 and September 30, 2021:


(In millions)	June 30, 2022		September 30, 2021
Letters of credit	$	9.5	$	10.1
Surety bonds	$	129.0	$	147.8

The longest maturity date of the letters of credit and surety bonds in effect as of June 30, 2022 was March 20, 2030.

Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in Item 8, Note 2, “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” and Item 7, “Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” included in the 2021 Annual Report. Any new accounting policies or updates to existing accounting policies as a result of new accounting pronouncements have been included in the Notes to the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Report. The application of the Company’s accounting policies may require the use of estimates and assumptions. Management uses historical experience and all available information to make these estimates and assumptions. Estimates are revised as additional information becomes available. Actual results could differ from these estimates.

See Note 2, “Recent Accounting Pronouncements” in the Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements in Item 1 of this Report for a discussion of recently issued accounting guidance.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

There have been no material changes to the information concerning exposure to market risks as stated in Part I, Item 7A of the 2021 Annual Report.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures.

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)) are designed to confirm that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the SEC and to confirm that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management, including our principal executive and financial officers, to allow timely decisions regarding disclosure. Our management has evaluated, under the supervision and with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures as of the end of the period covered by this Report. Based on that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective as of such date.

While our disclosure controls and procedures are designed to provide reasonable assurance of their effectiveness, because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within the Company have been detected.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarterly period ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II - Other Information

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

From time to time, we are subject to various claims, charges, and litigation matters that arise in the ordinary course of business. We believe these actions are a normal incident of the nature and kind of business in which we are engaged. While it is not feasible to predict the outcome of these matters with certainty, we do not believe that any asserted or unasserted legal claims or proceedings, individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or prospects.

In October 2020, the Company learned that the SEC and the United States Attorney’s Office for the District of Massachusetts are investigating whether financial misstatements were made in the Company’s public filings and earnings announcements prior to October 2018, similar to what was alleged in a class action lawsuit filed in November 2018 captioned In re Evoqua Water Technologies Corp. Securities Litigation (the “Securities Litigation”), which was dismissed in November 2021 following Court approval of a settlement in the amount of $16.65 million, all of which was paid by insurance. The Company is cooperating with those investigations. Although the Company is unable to predict the outcome or reasonably estimate any potential loss from the ongoing investigations, we currently believe that this matter will not have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or prospects.
