Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
Note 1 - Basis of Presentation
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form
10-Q
and Article 10 of Regulation S-X.
Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all material adjustments (consisting of normal, recurring adjustments) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending September 30, 2021. The accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet at September 30, 2020 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
On October 1, 2020, the Company acquired the Blaw-Knox paver line and associated assets, including inventory, fixed assets and related intellectual property, from Volvo Construction Equipment North America, LLC (“Volvo CE”). The acquisition provides the Company entry into the asphalt paver sector of the asphalt industry. The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, “Business Combinations.” The initial purchase price of approximately $14.4 million, which was subject to post-closing adjustments, was funded by cash on hand. After post-closing adjustments transacted during quarter ended March 31, 2021, the final purchase price was $13.8 million, including $10.4 million in inventory and $3.4 million in fixed assets. There were no liabilities assumed. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements as of June 30, 2021, include the assets, liabilities and operating results of the paver line for the quarter and
nine
months then ended. There were no paver equipment revenues during the quarter ended December 31, 2020, as the facility was being readied for production which began in the quarter ended March 31, 2021. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Gencor Industries, Inc. Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended September 30, 2020.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
In February 2016, the FASB issued ASU No. (Topic 842) (“ASU asset and a lease liability on their balance sheet. For income statement purposes, the FASB retained a dual model, requiring leases to be classified as either operating or finance. ASU (“ROU”) asset and related lease liabilities of approximately $970,000. On October 9, 2020, the Company entered into a second operating lease for additional warehousing space for the paver inventory. The lease term is for one year beginning November 2020 with automatic
2016-02,
Leases
2016-02”).
With adoption of this standard, lessees are required to recognize most leases as a right-of-use
2016-02
must be applied on a modified retrospective basis and was effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, and interim periods within those years, with early adoption permitted. The Company adopted ASU 2016-02
in the first quarter of fiscal 2020. The initial adoption of ASU 2016-02
did not have a significant impact on its consolidated financial statements. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company entered into a three-year operating lease for property related to the manufacturing and warehousing of the paver line which resulted in reporting a right-of-use
one-year
renewals. In accordance with ASU 2016-02,
the Company recorded a ROU asset totaling $254,000 and related lease liabilities at inception (see Note 9 – Leases). In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU
2018-13,
Fair Value Measurement—Disclosure Framework (Topic 820) (ASU 2018-13).
The updated guidance improves the disclosure requirements on fair value measurements, including, among other things, addition of certain disclosures related to level 3 fair value measurements, and removal of disclosure requirements for (i) the amount and reasons for transfers between level 1 and level 2 of the fair value hierarchy, and (ii) policy and timing of transfers between fair value hierarchy levels. The updated guidance is effective for fiscal years, and interim periods within those fiscal years, beginning after December 15, 2019. The Company adopted ASU 2018-13
during the quarter ended December 31, 2020. The application of this guidance did not have a material effect on our disclosures.8
No other accounting pronouncements recently issued or newly effective have had, or are expected to have, a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.
COVID-19
Pandemic The Company continues to monitor and evaluate the risks related to the
COVID-19
pandemic, including impacts on its employees, customers, suppliers and financial results. As of the date of issuance of these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements, the Company’s operations have not been significantly impacted. However, the full impact of the COVID-19
pandemic continues to evolve subsequent to the quarter ended June 30, 2021 and as of the date these Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are issued. As such, the full magnitude that the COVID-19
pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition and future results of operations is uncertain. Management is actively monitoring the Company’s financial condition, operations, suppliers, industry, customers, and workforce. As the COVID-19
pandemic continues, the Company’s ability to meet customer demands for products may be impacted or its customers may experience adverse business consequences due to COVID-19.
Reduced demand for products or ability to meet customer demand (including as a result of disruptions from the Company’s suppliers) could have a material adverse effect on its business operations and financial performance. Note 2 - Marketable Securities and Fair Value Measurements
Marketable debt and equity securities are categorized as trading securities and are thus marked to market and stated at fair value. Fair value is determined using the quoted closing or latest bid prices for Level 1 investments and market standard valuation methodologies for Level 2 investments. Realized gains and losses on investment transactions are determined by specific identification and are recognized as incurred in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Changes in net unrealized gains and losses are reported in the condensed consolidated statements of income in the current period and represent the change in the fair value of investment holdings during the period.
Fair Value Measurements
The fair value of financial instruments is presented based upon a hierarchy of levels that prioritizes the inputs of valuation techniques used to measure fair value. The hierarchy gives the highest priority to unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities (Level 1 measurements) and the lowest priority to unobservable inputs (Level 3 measurements). A financial instrument’s level within the fair value hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement.
The fair value of marketable equity securities, mutual funds, exchange-traded funds, government securities, and cash and money funds are substantially based on quoted market prices (Level 1). Corporate and municipal bonds are valued using market standard valuation methodologies, including: discounted cash flow methodologies, matrix pricing or other similar techniques. The inputs to these market standard valuation methodologies include, but are not limited to: interest rates, credit standing of the issuer or counterparty, industry sector of the issuer, coupon rate, call provisions, maturity, estimated duration and assumptions regarding liquidity and estimated future cash flows. In addition to bond characteristics, the valuation methodologies incorporate market data, such as actual trades completed, bids and actual dealer quotes, where such information is available. Accordingly, the estimated fair values are based on available market information and judgments about financial instruments (Level 2). Fair values of the Level 2 investments, if any, are provided by the Company’s professional investment management firm.

In the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020, the Company liquidated approximately $17.0 million of its investments. The cash was used to fund the acquisition of the Blaw-Knox paver line and associated assets, including inventory, fixed assets and related intellectual property, from Volvo CE, as well as pay for capital expenditures and other startup costs to get the paver line’s manufacturing facility ready for production.
The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable and accounts payable approximate fair value because of the short-term nature of these items.
Note 3 – Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price of goods less reasonable costs of completion and delivery. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration, possible alternative uses and other factors in determining net realizable value. The cost of work in process and finished goods includes materials, direct labor, variable costs and overhead. The Company evaluates the need to record inventory adjustments on all inventories, including raw material, work in process, finished goods, spare parts and used equipment. Used equipment acquired by the Company on
trade-in
from customers is carried at estimated net realizable value. Unless specific circumstances warrant different treatment regarding inventory obsolescence, an allowance is established to reduce the cost basis of inventories to four years old by 50%, the cost basis of inventories to five years old by 75%, and the cost basis of inventories greater than five years old to zero. Inventory is typically reviewed for obsolescence on an annual basis computed as of September 30, the Company’s fiscal year end. If significant known changes in trends, technology or other specific circumstances that warrant consideration occur during the year, then the impact on obsolescence is considered at that time. 10
Net inventories at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020 consist of the following:

Basic earnings per share are based on the weighted-average number of shares outstanding. Diluted earnings per share are based on the sum of the weighted average number of shares outstanding plus common stock equivalents.
The weighted-average
shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the quarter and
nine months ended June
30,
2021 were
252,000 and
252,000, respectively, which equates to
132,000 and
129,000 dilutive common stock equivalents, respectively. The weighted-average shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the quarter and
nine months ended June
30,
2020 were
250,000 and
257,000, respectively, which equates to
118,000 and
125,000 dilutive common stock equivalents, respectively. There were
7,000 weighted-average shares issuable upon the exercise of stock options, which were not included in the diluted earnings per share calculation for the quarter ended June
30,
2020 because they were anti-dilutive. There were
no anti-dilutive shares for the quarter and
nine months ended June
30,
2021.
Note 6 – Customers with 10% (or greater) of Net Revenues
During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, one customer accounted for 17.5% of net revenues. During the nine months ended June 30, 2021, no customer accounted for 10% or more of net revenues.
During the quarter ended June 30, 2020, three customers accounted for 16.5%, 13.3% and 12.6% of net revenues. During the nine months ended June 30, 2020, no customer accounted for 10% or more of net revenues.
Note 7 – Income Taxes
Income taxes are provided for the tax effects of transactions reported in the consolidated financial statements and primarily consist of taxes currently due, plus deferred taxes.
The Company recognizes deferred tax liabilities and assets for the expected future tax consequences of events that have been included in the consolidated financial statements or tax returns using current tax rates. The Company and its domestic subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return.
Deferred tax assets and liabilities are measured using the rates expected to apply to taxable income in the years in which the temporary differences are expected to reverse and the credits are expected to be used. The effect on deferred tax assets and liabilities of the change in tax rates is recognized in income in the period that includes the enactment date. All available evidence, both positive and negative, is considered to determine whether, based on the weight of that evidence, the Company is more likely than not to realize the benefit of a deferred tax asset and whether a valuation allowance is needed for some portion or all of a deferred tax asset. No such valuation allowances were recorded as of June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020.
The Company’s income tax provision is based on management’s estimate of the effective tax rate for the full year. The tax provision in any period will be affected by, among other things, permanent, as well as temporary differences in the deductibility of certain items, in addition to changes in tax legislation. As a result, the Company may experience significant fluctuations in the effective book tax rate (that is, its tax expense divided by
pre-tax
book income) from period to period. The Company’s effective tax rates for the quarters and nine months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 reflect the impact of the reduced rates under the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act (the “Tax Reform Act”) which was signed into law on December 22, 2017. 12

Revenues from contracts with customers for the design, manufacture and sale of custom equipment are recognized over time when the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of the equipment. Control of the equipment transfers over time as the equipment is unique to the specific contract and thus does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company. Revenues and costs are recognized in proportion to actual labor costs incurred, as compared with total estimated labor costs expected to be incurred, during the entire contract. All incremental costs related to obtaining a contract are expensed as incurred as the amortization period is less than one year. Changes to total estimated contract costs or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined.
Contract assets (excluding accounts receivable) under contracts with customers represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed on equipment sales recognized over time. These contract assets were
zero
at June 30, 2021 and $6,405,000 at September 30, 2020. Contract assets at September 30, 2020 are included in current assets as costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2020.
Revenues from all other contracts for the design and manufacture of equipment, for service and for parts sales, net of any discounts and return allowances, are recorded at a point in time when control of the goods or services has been transferred. Control of the goods or service typically transfers at time of shipment or upon completion of the service.
Payment for equipment under contract with customers is typically due prior to shipment. Payment for services under contract with customers is due as certain milestones are completed. Accounts receivable related to contracts with customers for equipment sales was $268,000 at June 30, 2021 and $223,000 at September 30, 2020.
Product warranty costs are estimated using historical experience and known issues and are charged to production costs as revenue is recognized. Provisions for estimated returns and allowances and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. Returns and allowances, which reduce product revenue, are estimated using historical experience.
Under certain contracts with customers, recognition of a portion of the consideration received may be deferred and recorded as a contract liability if the Company has to satisfy a future obligation, such as to provide installation assistance. There were no contract liabilities other than customer deposits and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings at June 30, 2021 and customer deposits at September 30, 2020. Customer deposits related to contracts with customers were $
at June
30,
2021 and $
3,853,000 at September
30,
2020, and are included in current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets at June
30,
2021 and September
30,
2020, respectively.
685,000
at June 30, 2021 and zero at September 30, 2020. These contract liabilities represent billings in excess of revenue recognized on equipment sales recognized over time, and are included current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2021.
13
The Company records revenues earned for shipping and handling as freight revenue at the time of shipment, regardless of whether or not it is identified as a separate performance obligation. The cost of shipping and handling is classified as production costs concurrently with the revenue recognition.
All product engineering and development costs, and selling, general and administrative expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Provision is made for any anticipated contract losses in the period that the loss becomes evident.
The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by performing a specific review of all account balances greater than 90 days past due and other higher risk amounts to determine collectability, and also adjusting for any known customer payment issues with account balances in the past due aging category. Account balances are charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when they are determined to be uncollectible. Any recoveries of account balances previously considered in the allowance for doubtful accounts reduce future additions to the allowance for doubtful accounts. The allowance for doubtful accounts also includes an estimate for returns and allowances. Provisions for estimated returns and allowances and other adjustments, are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. Returns and allowances, which reduce product revenue, are estimated using known issues and historical experience.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Forward-Looking Information
This Quarterly Report contains certain “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Exchange Act, which represent the Company’s expectations and beliefs, including, but not limited to, statements concerning gross margins, sales of the Company’s products and future financing plans, income from investees and litigation. These statements by their nature involve substantial risks and uncertainties, certain of which are beyond the Company’s control. Actual results may differ materially depending on a variety of important factors, including the financial condition of the Company’s customers, changes in the economic and competitive environments, the performance of the investment portfolio and the demand for the Company’s products.
For information concerning these factors and related matters, see the following sections of the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended September 30, 2020: (a) Part I, Item 1A, “Risk Factors” and (b) Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations”. However, other factors besides those referenced could adversely affect the Company’s results, and you should not consider any such list of factors to be a complete set of all potential risks or uncertainties. Any forward-looking statements made by the Company herein speak as of the date of this Quarterly Report. The Company does not undertake to update any forward-looking statements, except as required by law. Overview
Gencor is a leading manufacturer of heavy machinery used in the production and application of highway construction materials and environmental control equipment. The Company’s core products include asphalt plants, combustion systems, fluid heat transfer systems and asphalt pavers. The Company’s products are manufactured at three facilities in the United States.
Because the Company’s products are sold primarily to the highway construction industry, the business is seasonal in nature. Traditionally, the Company’s customers reduce their purchases of new equipment for shipment during the summer and fall months to avoid disrupting their peak season for highway construction and related repair work. The majority of orders for the Company’s products are thus received between October and February, with a significant volume of shipments occurring in the late winter and spring. The principal factors driving demand for the Company’s products are the overall economic conditions, the level of government funding for domestic highway construction and repair, Canadian infrastructure spending, the need for spare parts, fluctuations in the price of liquid asphalt, and a trend towards larger more efficient asphalt plants.
On December 4, 2015, President Obama signed into law a five-year, $305 billion transportation bill, Fixing America’s Surface Transportation Act (the “FAST Act”). The FAST Act reauthorized the collection of the 18.4 cents per gallon gas tax that is typically used to pay for transportation projects. It also included $70 billion from other areas of the federal budget to close a $16 billion annual funding deficit. The bill included spending of more than $205 billion on roads and highways over five years. The 2016 funding levels were approximately 5% above 2015 projected funding, with annual increases between 2.0% and 2.5% from 2016 through September 2020. On the eve of its expiration, a
one-year
extension to the FAST Act was passed and signed into law. The one-year
extension maintains current funding levels under the FAST Act through September 2021. California’s Senate Bill 1 (“SB1”), the Road Repair and Accountability Act of 2017, was signed into law on April 28, 2017. The legislative package invests $54 billion over the next decade to fix roads, freeways and bridges in communities across California and puts more dollars towards transit and safety. These funds will be allocated to state and local projects. Additionally, numerous other states have taken steps to increase their gas tax revenues in recent years.
Fluctuations in the price of carbon steel, which is a significant cost and material used in the manufacturing of the Company’s equipment, may affect the Company’s financial performance. The Company is subject to fluctuations in market prices for raw materials, such as steel. If the Company is unable to purchase materials it requires or is unable to pass on price increases to its customers or otherwise reduce its cost of goods sold, its business results of operations and financial condition may be adversely affected.
16
Also, a significant increase in the price of liquid asphalt could decrease demand for hot mix asphalt paving materials and certain of the Company’s products. Increases in oil prices also drive up the cost of gasoline and diesel, which results in increased freight costs. Where possible, the Company will pass increased freight costs on to its customers. However, the Company may not be able to recapture all of the higher costs and thus could have a negative impact on the Company’s financial performance.
The Company believes its strategy of continuing to invest in product engineering and development and its focus on delivering the highest quality products and superior service will strengthen the Company’s market position. The Company continues to review its internal processes to identify inefficiencies and cost-reduction opportunities. The Company will continue to scrutinize its relationships with suppliers to ensure it is achieving the highest quality materials and services at the most competitive cost.
Impact of
COVID-19
The Company continues to monitor and evaluate the risks related to the
COVID-19
pandemic, including impacts on its employees, customers, suppliers and financial results. As of the date of issuance of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2021, the Company’s operations have not been significantly impacted. However, the full impact of the COVID-19
pandemic continues to evolve subsequent to the quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2021 and as of the date the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are issued. As such, the full magnitude that the COVID-19
pandemic will have on the Company’s financial condition and future results of operations is uncertain. Management is actively monitoring the Company’s financial condition, operations, suppliers, industry, customers, and workforce. As the COVID-19
pandemic continues, the Company’s ability to meet customer demands for products may be impacted or its customers may experience adverse business consequences due to COVID-19.
Reduced demand for products or ability to meet customer demand (including as a result of disruptions from the Company’s suppliers) could have a material adverse effect on its business operations and financial performance. Results of Operations
Quarter Ended June 30, 2021 versus June 30, 2020
Net revenue for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 was $24,919,000, as compared to $22,940,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, an increase of $1,979,000, or 8.6%. The increase in net revenue was due to paver equipment and parts sales of approximately $2.3 million in the quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared with no paver revenues in the quarter ended June 30, 2020.
As a percent of net revenue, gross profit margins were 22.5% in the quarter ended June 30, 2021 compared to 23.5% in the quarter ended June 30, 2020. During the quarter ended June 30, 2021, the Company continued to experience higher manufacturing costs associated with steel and OEM parts pricing, as well as unabsorbed manufacturing labor and overhead expenses related to the paver line. The negative effect of these higher manufacturing costs on the quarter ended June 30, 2021, was partially offset by improved margins on certain equipment sales recognized over time and increased parts sales, in dollars and as a percentage of total net revenues, at higher margins.
Product engineering and development expenses increased by $327,000 to $1,176,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $849,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020, due primarily to engineering wages related to the paver line. Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses increased by $680,000 to $3,202,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, as compared to $2,522,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to expenses related to the paver line.
Operating income decreased from $2,014,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 to $1,227,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, due primarily to the operational costs related to the Blaw-Knox acquisition.
17
For the quarter ended June 30, 2021, interest and dividend income, net of fees, from the investment portfolio was $306,000, as compared to $512,000 in the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The higher income in fiscal 2020 reflects the impact from a larger investment in corporate bonds and a higher average yield to maturity. The fiscal 2021 corporate investment bonds were reduced as the related investments were partially liquidated to fund the Blaw-Knox acquisition. Net realized and unrealized gains on marketable securities were $1,386,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 versus net unrealized and realized gains of $2,888,000 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The investment gains for the quarter ended June 30, 2020 reflect a recovery in the domestic equity markets after the initial declines from the impact of the
COVID-19
pandemic in the quarter ended March 31, 2020. The effective income tax rate for the quarters ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was 20.0%.
Net income for the quarter ended June 30, 2021 was $2,335,000, or $0.16 per diluted share, versus $4,322,000, or $0.29 per diluted share, for the quarter ended June 30, 2020.
Nine Months Ended June 30, 2021 versus June 30, 2020
Net revenue for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were $65,235,000 and $66,963,000, respectively, a decrease of $1,728,000. The reduced revenues reflect a decrease in equipment sales recognized over time compared to the same period in the prior year partially offset by improved parts and component sales, including $3.9 million in paver equipment and parts sales for the nine months ended June 30, 2021, compared with no paver revenues for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.
Gross profit margins decreased to 22.6% in the nine months ended June 30, 2021 from 25.5% in the nine months ended June 30, 2020. The gross profit margins for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 were negatively impacted by approximately $3.4 million of unabsorbed manufacturing labor and overhead expenses related to the paver line. In addition, increases in steel and OEM parts prices contributed to the lower overall gross margins during the nine months ended June 30, 2021.
Product engineering and development expenses increased by $785,000 in the nine months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2020 due primarily to engineering wages related to the paver line. SG&A expenses increased $2,770,000 in the nine months ended June 30, 2021, compared to the nine months ended June 30, 2020. The increase in SG&A expenses was primarily due to expenses related to the paver line and professional fees to support business development efforts.
The Company had operating income of $1,407,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 versus $7,274,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. The decrease in operating income was due primarily to the operational and
start-up
costs related to the Blaw-Knox acquisition and professional fees to support business development efforts. For the nine months ended June 30, 2021, interest and dividend income, net of fees, from the investment portfolio was $1,437,000, as compared to $1,907,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. Interest income for the nine months ended June 30, 2021, also included $456,000 of interest collected from a customer. The higher interest income from the investment portfolio in fiscal 2020 reflects the impact from a larger investment in corporate bonds and a higher average yield to maturity. The fiscal 2021 corporate bonds were reduced as the related investments were partially liquidated to fund the Blaw-Knox acquisition. Net realized and unrealized income on marketable securities was $4,873,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 versus net realized and unrealized losses of $(1,465,000) for the nine months ended June 30, 2020. The fiscal 2020 investment losses reflect the decline in the domestic equity markets from the impact of the
COVID-19
pandemic. The effective income tax rate for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 and June 30, 2020 was 20.0%. Net income for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 was $6,174,000, or $0.42 per diluted share, versus $6,156,000, or $0.42 per diluted share, for the nine months ended June 30, 2020.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The Company generates capital resources through operations and returns on its investments.
18
The Company had no long-term or short-term debt outstanding at June 30, 2021 or September 30, 2020. As of June 30, 2021, the Company has funded $85,000 in cash deposits at insurance companies to cover related collateral needs. In April 2020, a financial institution issued an irrevocable standby letter of credit (“letter of credit”) on behalf of the Company for the benefit of one of the Company’s insurance carriers. The maximum amount that can be drawn by the beneficiary under the letter of credit is $150,000. The letter of credit expires in April 2022, unless terminated earlier, and can be extended, as provided by the agreement. The Company intends to renew the letter of credit for as long as the Company does business with the beneficiary insurance carrier. The letter is collateralized by restricted cash of the same amount on any outstanding drawings. To date, no amounts have been drawn under the letter of credit.
As of June 30, 2021, the Company had $27,544,000 in cash and cash equivalents, and $95,345,000 in marketable securities, including $25,229,000 in corporate bonds, $14,679,000 in equities, $10,341,000 in mutual funds, $9,545,000 in exchange-traded funds, $30,998,000 in government securities, and $4,553,000 in cash and money funds. The marketable securities are invested through a professional investment management firm. These securities may be liquidated at any time into cash and cash equivalents.
The Company’s backlog was $28.5 million at June 30, 2021, compared to $11.7 million at June 30, 2020. The Company’s working capital (defined as current assets less current liabilities) was $155.9 million at June 30, 2021 and $153.2 million at September 30, 2020. Cash provided by operations during the nine months ended June 30, 2021 was $8,130,000. The significant purchases, sales and maturities of marketable securities shown on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows reflect the recurring purchases and sales of United States treasury bills. Accounts receivable increased by $1,253,000 due to the additional receivables related to the Blaw-Knox business. Costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings decreased by $7,090,000 reflecting the completion and shipment of several large contract jobs during the nine months ended June 30, 2021. Excluding the impact of the Blaw-Knox acquisition, inventories increased by $3,357,000 primarily due to progress on two large contract orders where revenue is recognized at a point in time and some stock build to compensate for the long lead times from suppliers. Accounts payable increased by $2,678,000 due to the additional payables related to the Blaw-Knox business along with the increase in inventory.
Cash flows used in investing activities for the nine months ended June 30, 2021 of $16,226,000 were related to the acquisition of Blaw-Know paver line and subsequent capital expenditures, primarily for systems software and leasehold improvements for the paver line’s manufacturing facility. Cash provided by financing activities of $56,000 for the nine months ended June 30, 2021, related to proceeds from the exercise of stock options.
Seasonality
The Company’s primary business is the manufacture of asphalt pavers, asphalt plants and related components and typically experiences a seasonal slowdown during the third and fourth quarters of the calendar year. This slowdown often results in lower reported sales and operating results during the first and fourth quarters of the fiscal year ended September 30.
Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Assumptions
The Company believes the following discussion addresses its most critical accounting policies, which are those that are most important to the portrayal of the financial condition and results of operations and require management’s most difficult, subjective, or complex judgments, often as a result of the need to make estimates about the effect of matters that are inherently uncertain. Accounting policies, in addition to the critical accounting policies referenced below, are presented in Note 1 to the Company’s consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form
10-K
for the year ended September 30, 2020, “Accounting Policies.” 19
Estimates and Assumptions
In preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements, the Company uses certain estimates and assumptions that may affect reported amounts and disclosures. Estimates and assumptions are used, among other places, when accounting for certain revenue (e.g., contract accounting), expense, and asset and liability valuations. The Company believes that the estimates and assumptions made in preparing the condensed consolidated financial statements are reasonable, but are inherently uncertain. Assumptions may be incomplete or inaccurate and unanticipated events may occur. The Company is subject to risks and uncertainties that may cause actual results to differ from estimated results.
Revenues & Expenses
The Company recognizes revenue under ASU (Topic 606).
No. 2014-09,
Revenue from Contracts with Customers
Revenues from contracts with customers for the design, manufacture and sale of custom equipment are recognized over time when the performance obligation is satisfied by transferring control of the equipment. Control of the equipment transfers over time, as the equipment is unique to the specific contract and thus does not create an asset with an alternative use to the Company. Revenues and costs are recognized in proportion to actual labor costs incurred, as compared with total estimated labor costs expected to be incurred, during the entire contract. All incremental costs related to obtaining a contract are expensed as incurred, as the amortization period is less than one year. Changes to total estimated contract costs or losses, if any, are recognized in the period in which they are determined.
Contract assets (excluding accounts receivable) under contracts with customers represent revenue recognized in excess of amounts billed on equipment sales recognized over time. These contract assets were zero at June 30, 2021 and $6,405,000 at September 30, 2020. Contract assets at September 30, 2020 are included in current assets as costs and estimated earnings in excess of billings on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at September 30, 2020.
Revenues from all other contracts for the design and manufacture of equipment, for service and for parts sales, net of any discounts and return allowances, are recorded at a point in time when control of the goods or services has been transferred. Control of the goods or service typically transfers at time of shipment or upon completion of the service.
Payment for equipment under contract with customers is typically due prior to shipment. Payment for services under contract with customers is due as certain milestones are completed. Accounts receivable related to contracts with customers for equipment sales was $268,000 at June 30, 2021 and $223,000 at September 30, 2020.
Product warranty costs are estimated using historical experience and known issues and are charged to production costs as revenue is recognized.
Under certain contracts with customers, recognition of a portion of the consideration received may be deferred and recorded as a contract liability if the Company has to satisfy a future obligation, such as to provide installation assistance. There were no contract liabilities other than customer deposits and billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings at June 30, 2021 and customer deposits at September 30, 2020. Customer deposits related to contracts with customers were $3,761,000 at June 30, 2021 and $3,853,000 at September 30, 2020, and are included in current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2021 and September 30, 2020, respectively. Billings in excess of costs and estimated earnings were $685,000 at June 30, 2021 and represent billings in excess of revenue recognized on equipment sales recognized over time, and are included current liabilities on the Company’s condensed consolidated balance sheet at June 30, 2021.
The Company records revenues earned for shipping and handling as freight revenue at the time of shipment, regardless of whether or not it is identified as a separate performance obligation. The cost of shipping and handling is classified as cost of goods sold concurrently.
All product engineering and development costs, and selling, general and administrative expenses are charged to operations as incurred. Provision is made for any anticipated contract losses in the period that the loss becomes evident.
20
The allowance for doubtful accounts is determined by performing a specific review of all account balances greater than 90 days past due and other higher risk amounts to determine collectability and also adjusting for any known customer payment issues with account balances in the past due aging buckets. Account balances are charged off against the allowance for doubtful accounts when they are determined to be uncollectable. Any recoveries of account balances previously considered in the allowance for doubtful accounts reduce future additions to the allowance for doubtful accounts. Provisions for estimated returns and allowances and other adjustments are provided for in the same period the related sales are recorded. Returns and allowances, which reduce product revenue, are estimated using historical experience.
less-than-90-day
Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Net realizable value is defined as the estimated selling price of goods less reasonable costs of completion and delivery. Appropriate consideration is given to obsolescence, excessive levels, deterioration, possible alternative uses and other factors in determining net realizable value. The cost of work in process and finished goods includes materials, direct labor, variable costs and overhead. The Company evaluates the need to record inventory adjustments on all inventories, including raw material, work in process, finished goods, spare parts and used equipment. Used equipment acquired by the Company on
trade-in
from customers is carried at estimated net realizable value. Unless specific circumstances warrant different treatment regarding inventory obsolescence, an allowance is established to reduce the cost basis of inventories three to four years old by 50%, the cost basis of inventories four to five years old by 75%, and the cost basis of inventories greater than five years old to zero. Inventory is typically reviewed for obsolescence on an annual basis computed as of September 30, the Company’s fiscal year end. If significant known changes in trends, technology or other specific circumstances that warrant consideration occur during the year, then the impact on obsolescence is considered at that time. Investments
Marketable debt and equity securities are categorized as trading securities and are thus marked to market and stated at fair value. Fair value is determined using the quoted closing or latest bid prices for Level 1 investments and market standard valuation methodologies for Level 2 investments. Realized gains and (losses) on investment transactions are determined by specific identification and are recognized as incurred in the condensed consolidated statements of income. Net unrealized gains and (losses) are reported in the condensed consolidated statements of income in the current period and represent the change in the fair value of investment holdings during the period.
Long-Lived Asset Impairment
Property and equipment and intangible assets subject to amortization are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of an asset (or asset group) may not be recoverable. An impairment loss would be recognized when the carrying amount of an asset exceeds the estimated undiscounted cash flows expected to result from the use of the asset and its eventual disposition. The amount of the impairment loss to be recorded is calculated by the excess over its fair value of the asset’s carrying value. Fair value is generally determined using a discounted cash flow analysis.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk
Not applicable.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of the Company’s “disclosure controls and procedures” (as defined in Rule
13a-15(e)
under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based upon that evaluation, the Chief Executive Officer and the Principal Financial and Accounting Officer concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are effective. Because of inherent limitations, the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, no matter how well-designed and operated, can provide only reasonable, and not absolute, assurance that the objectives of such disclosure controls and procedures are met, and no evaluation 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
The Company’s management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer, has reviewed the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. There were no changes in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the quarter and nine months ended June 30, 2021 that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
