Recent Accounting Pronouncements

In February 2016, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2016-02, Leases, creating Topic 842, which requires lessees to record the assets and liabilities arising from all leases in the statement of financial position. Under ASU 2016-02, lessees will recognize a liability for lease payments and a right-of-use asset. When measuring assets and liabilities, a lessee should include amounts related to option terms, such as the option of extending or terminating the lease or purchasing the underlying asset, that are reasonably certain to be exercised. For leases with a term of 12 months or less, lessees are permitted to make an accounting policy election to not recognize lease assets and liabilities. This guidance retains the distinction between finance leases and operating leases and the classification criteria remains similar to existing guidance. For financing leases, a lessee will recognize the interest on a lease liability separate from amortization of the right-of-use asset. In addition, repayments of principal will be presented within financing activities, and interest payments will be presented within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. For operating leases, a lessee will recognize a single lease cost on a straight-line basis and classify all cash payments within operating activities in the statement of cash flows. For public companies, this guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2018, including interim periods within those fiscal years. For as long as the Company remains an “emerging growth company” (EGC), the new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

In January 2017, the FASB issued ASU 2017-04, Simplifying the Test for Goodwill Impairment, which simplifies the subsequent measurement of goodwill by removing the requirement to perform a hypothetical purchase price allocation to compute the implied fair value of goodwill to measure impairment. Instead, any goodwill impairment will equal the amount by which a reporting unit’s carrying value exceeds its fair value, not to exceed the carrying amount of goodwill. Further, the guidance eliminates the requirements for any reporting unit with a zero or negative carrying amount to perform a qualitative assessment and, if it fails that qualitative test, to perform Step 2 of the goodwill impairment test. For public companies, this guidance is effective for annual or any interim goodwill impairment test in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2018. For as long as the Company remains an EGC, the new guidance is effective for any annual or interim goodwill impairment test in annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021. During the period ended March 31, 2020, the Company elected to early adopt this guidance. This adoption had no impact on the financial statements.

In December 2019, the FASB issued ASU 2019-12, Income Taxes, creating Topic 740, which removes certain exceptions for recognizing deferred taxes for investments, performing intra-period allocation, and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The ASU also adds guidance to reduce complexity in certain areas, including recognizing deferred taxes for tax goodwill and allocating taxes to members of a consolidated group. For public companies, this guidance will be effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020. For as long as the Company remains an EGC, the new guidance is effective for annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2021, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022. Early adoption is permitted. The Company is evaluating the potential impact of this guidance on the consolidated financial statements.

A summary of the Company’s evaluation of other recent accounting pronouncements is included in the Company’s 2019 financial statements in its Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

Note 2. IPO

The IPO of shares of the Company’s common stock was completed in May 2019. In connection with the offering, the Company initially sold 6,250,000 shares of common stock at $17 per share generating proceeds of $99,344, net of underwriting discounts and commissions. Additional shares were also sold under an option granted to the underwriters that same month, resulting in a sale of an additional 152,209 shares of common stock at $17 per share, generating additional proceeds of $2,419, net of underwriting discounts and commissions. IPO proceeds were used to pay down certain indebtedness.

In conjunction with the IPO, the Company issued a stock dividend specific to pre-IPO shares, of approximately 1,334.34-for-1, resulting in the conversion of 10,075 shares in our Employee Stock Ownership Plan to 13,443,484 shares.

Note 4. Bank revolving credit notes

On September 26, 2019, and as last amended as of June 30, 2020, we entered into an amended and restated credit agreement (Credit Agreement) with certain lenders and Wells Fargo Bank, National Association, as administrative agent. The Credit Agreement provides for a $200,000  revolving credit facility (the Revolving Loan), with a letter of credit sub-facility in an aggregate amount not to exceed $5,000, and a swingline facility in an aggregate amount of $20,000. The Credit Agreement also provides for an additional $100,000 of debt capacity through an accordion feature. All amounts borrowed under the Credit Agreement mature on September 26, 2024.

The Credit Agreement contains usual and customary negative covenants for agreements of this type, including, but not limited to, restrictions on our ability to, subject to certain exceptions, create, incur or assume indebtedness, create or incur liens, make certain investments, merge or consolidate with another entity, make certain asset dispositions, pay dividends or other distributions to shareholders, enter into transactions with affiliates, enter into sale leaseback transactions or make capital expenditures. The Credit Agreement also requires us to satisfy certain financial covenants, including a minimum interest coverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00 as well as a consolidated total leverage ratio not to exceed 3.25 to 1.00, although such leverage ratio can be increased in connection with certain acquisitions.

In order to provide a means of insurance against future macroeconomic events, we entered into an amendment (Second Amendment) to the Credit Agreement on June 30, 2020. The Second Amendment provides the Company with temporary changes to the total leverage ratio covenant for the period from June 30, 2020, through December 31, 2021, or such earlier date as the Company may elect (Covenant Relief Period), in return for certain increases in interest rates, fees and restrictions on certain activities of the Company, including capital expenditures, acquisitions, dividends and share repurchases. New pricing, which takes effect for the quarters ending on and after September 30, 2020, includes interest at a fluctuating London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) (at a floor of 75 basis points), plus 1.00% – 2.75%, along with the commitment fee ranging from 20 to 50 basis points.

During the Covenant Relief Period, the required ceiling on the Company’s total leverage ratio will be 4.25 to 1.00 for quarters ending June 30, 2020 through and including December 31, 2020, and will decline in quarterly increments to 3.25 to 1.00 through the quarter ending December 31, 2021.

At September 30, 2020, our consolidated total leverage ratio was 2.16 to 1.00 as compared to a covenant maximum of 4.25 to 1.00 in accordance with the Second Amendment of the Credit Agreement.

At September 30, 2020, our interest coverage ratio was 7.44 to 1.00 as compared to a covenant minimum of 3.00 to 1.00 under the Credit Agreement.

Under the Credit Agreement, interest is payable quarterly at the adjusted LIBOR plus an applicable margin based on the current funded indebtedness to adjusted EBITDA ratio. The interest rate was 2.50% and 3.25% as of September 30, 2020 and December 31,

12

2019, respectively. Additionally, the agreement has a fee on the average daily unused portion of the aggregate unused revolving commitments. This fee was 0.20% as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019.

The Company was in compliance with all financial covenants of its credit agreements as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019. The amount borrowed on the revolving credit notes was $59,986 and $72,572 as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively.

Note 5. Capital lease obligation

Capital leases consist of equipment with a capitalized cost of $3,825 at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, and accumulated depreciation of $1,084 and $598 at September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively. Depreciation of $161 and $483 was recognized on the capital lease assets during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively, and $196 and $342 during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively. Non-cash capital lease transactions amounted to zero for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020. Future minimum lease payments required under the lease are as follows:

Note 6. Operating lease obligation

Operating leases relate to property, plant and equipment. Future minimum lease payments required under the leases are as follows:

The Company leases certain office space, warehousing facilities, equipment and vehicles under operating lease arrangements with third-party lessors. These lease arrangements expire at various time through December 2028. Total rent expense under the arrangements was approximately $1,128 and $1,223 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $3,283 and $3,624 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively.

Note 7. Employee stock ownership plan

Under the Mayville Engineering Company, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan (the ESOP), the Company can make annual contributions to the trust for the benefit of eligible employees in the form of cash or shares of common stock of the Company. Prior to December 31, 2019, the annual contribution was discretionary except that it must have been at least 3% of the compensation for all safe harbor participants for the plan year. Beginning on January 1, 2020, all contributions are discretionary. For the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s ESOP expense amounted to zero and $1,500, respectively. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, the Company’s ESOP expense amounted to zero and $4,500, respectively.

13

At various times following death, disability, retirement or termination of employment, an ESOP participant is entitled to receive their ESOP account balance in accordance with various distribution methods as permitted under the policies adopted by the ESOP. Prior to the IPO, all distributions were paid to participants in cash.

As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the ESOP shares consisted of 10,032,641 and 11,790,113 in allocated shares, respectively. Prior to its IPO, the Company was obligated to repurchase shares in the trust that were not distributed to ESOP participants as determined by the ESOP trustees, and thus the shares were mandatorily redeemable. Subsequent to the IPO, shares are sold in the public market.

Note 8. Retirement plans

The Mayville Engineering Company Inc. 401(k) Plan (the 401(k) Plan) covers substantially all employees meeting certain eligibility requirements. The 401(k) Plan is a defined contribution plan and is intended for eligible employees to defer tax-free contributions to save for retirement. Employees may contribute up to 50% of their eligible compensation plan to the 401(k) Plan, subject to the limits of Section 401(k) of the Internal Revenue Code.

The 401(k) Plan also provides for employer discretionary profit-sharing contributions and the Board of Directors may authorize discretionary profit-sharing contributions (which are usually approved at the end of each calendar year).

Note 9. Income taxes

On a quarterly basis, the Company estimates its effective tax rate for the full fiscal year and records a quarterly income tax provision based on the anticipated rate. As the year progresses, the Company will refine its estimate based on facts and circumstances by each tax jurisdiction.

For the nine months ended September 30, 2020 our annual effective tax rate (EFT) is 26.80%, excluding discrete items. Income tax expense (benefit) was $733 and ($1,101), and the effective tax rate (ETR) from continuing operations was -199.82% and 12.17% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, respectively. The following caused the ETR to be different from our expected annual ETR at statutory tax rates:

For the nine months ended September 30, 2019, our annual EFT was 23.35% excluding discrete items. Income tax expense (benefit) was estimated at $2,512 and ($231) and the ETR from continuing operations was 19.60% and 3.50% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019, respectively.

The calculation of our tax liabilities involves dealing with uncertainties in the application of complex tax laws and regulations in these jurisdictions. Accounting Standards Codification (ASC) Topic 740, Income Taxes, states that a tax benefit from an uncertain tax position may be recognized when it is more likely than not that the position will be sustained upon examination, including resolutions of any related appeals or litigation processes, on the basis of technical merits.

Based on the Company’s evaluation, it has been concluded that there are no significant uncertain tax positions requiring recognition in the Company’s financial statements for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019.

Prior to the Company’s IPO, the Company’s legacy business was an S Corporation, where substantially all taxes were passed to the shareholders and the Company did not pay federal or state corporate income taxes on its taxable income. In connection with the IPO, the Company’s legacy business converted to a C Corporation. As a result, the consolidated business is subject to paying federal and state corporate income taxes on its taxable income from May 9, 2019 forward. Upon the Company’s conversion from a non-taxable entity to a taxable entity, we established an opening deferred tax asset of $784 as a result of evaluating estimated temporary differences that existed on this date.

The Company’s policy for recording interest and penalties associated with potential income tax audits is to record such expense as a component of income tax expense. There were no amounts for penalties or interest recorded as of September 30, 2020. Management is currently unaware of any issues under review that could result in significant payments, accruals or material deviations from its positions.

14

Note 10. Contingencies

From time to time, the Company may be involved in various claims and lawsuits, both for and against the Company, arising in the normal course of business. Although the results of litigation and claims cannot be predicted with certainty, in management’s opinion, either the likelihood of loss is remote, or any reasonably possible loss associated with the resolution of such proceedings is not expected to have a material adverse impact on the consolidated financial statements.

Note 11. Deferred compensation

The Mayville Engineering Deferred Compensation Plan is available for certain employees designated to be eligible to participate by the Company and approved by the Board of Directors. Eligible employees may elect to defer a portion of his or her compensation for any plan year and the deferral cannot exceed 50% of the participant’s base salary and may include the participant’s annual short-term cash incentive up to 100%. The participant’s election must be made prior to the first day of the plan year.

 An employer contribution will be made for each participant to reflect the amount of any reduced allocations to the ESOP and/or 401(k) employer contributions due solely to the participant’s deferral amounts, as applicable. In addition, a discretionary amount may be awarded to a participant by the Company.

Prior to the IPO, all deferrals were deemed to have been invested in the Company’s common stock at a price equal to the share value on the date of deferral and the value of the account increased or decreased with the change in the value of the stock. Individual accounts are maintained for each participant. Each participant’s account is credited with the participant’s deferred compensation and investment income or loss, reduced for charges, if any.

For the period subsequent to the IPO, deferrals are assumed to be invested in an investment vehicle based on the options made available to the participant (which does not include Company stock).

The deferred compensation plan provides benefits payable upon separation of service or death. Payments are to be made 30 days after date of separation from service, either in a lump-sum payment or up to five annual installments as elected by the participant when the participant first elects to defer compensation.

The deferred compensation plan is non-funded, and all future contributions are unsecured in that the employees have the status of a general unsecured creditor of the Company and the agreements constitute a promise by the Company to make benefit payments in the future. During the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, eligible employees elected to defer compensation of $10 for both periods. During the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, eligible employees elected to defer compensation of $51 and $1,064, respectively. As of September 30, 2020, and December 31, 2019, the total amount accrued for all benefit years under this plan was $25,183 and $24,949, respectively, which is included within the deferred compensation and long-term incentive on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. These amounts include the initial deferral of compensation as adjusted for (a) subsequent changes in the share value of the Company stock pursuant to the IPO or (b) following the IPO in the investment options chosen by the participants. Total expense for the deferred compensation plan for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 amounted to $310 and $141, respectively. Total expense for the deferred compensation plan for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019 amounted to $289 and $10,405, respectively. These expenses are included in profit sharing, bonuses and deferred compensation on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

15

Note 12. Long-Term incentive plan

Prior to the IPO, the Company’s long-term incentive plan (LTIP) was available for any employee who had been designated to be eligible to participate by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors. Annually, the LTIP provided for long-term cash incentive awards to eligible participants based on the Company’s performance over a three-year performance period.

The LTIP was non-funded and each participant in the plan was considered a general unsecured creditor of the Company and each agreement constituted a promise by the Company to make benefit payments if the future conditions were met, or if discretion is exercised in favor of a benefit payment.

The qualifying conditions for each award granted under the plan included a minimum increase in the aggregate fair value of the Company of 12% during the three-year performance period and the eligible participants must have been employed by the Company on the date of the cash payment or have retired after attaining age 65, died or become disabled during the period from the beginning of the performance period to the date of payment. If the qualifying conditions were not attained, discretionary payments were made, up to a maximum amount specified in each award agreement. Discretionary payments were determined by the Compensation Committee of the Board of Directors (for payment to the Chief Executive Officer of the Company) and by the Chief Executive Officer (for payments to other participants in the plan).

If a participant was not employed throughout the performance period due to retirement, death or disability, their maximum benefit was prorated based on the number of days employed by the Company during the performance periods.

The LTIP was terminated in May 2019 in conjunction with the IPO. Total expense for the long-term incentive plan for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2019 amounted to zero and $10,000, respectively. These expenses are included in profit sharing, bonuses and deferred compensation on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Note 13. Self-Funded insurance

The Company is self-funded for the medical benefits provided to its employees and their dependents. Healthcare costs are expensed as incurred and are based upon actual claims paid, reinsurance premiums, administration fees, and estimated unpaid claims. As of March 31, 2020, the Company has consolidated benefit plans with no specific stop loss and an aggregate stop loss to limit risk. Expense related to this contract is approximately $4,757 and $4,709 for the three months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively, and $16,072 and $14,875 for the nine months ended September 30, 2020 and 2019, respectively. An estimated accrued liability of approximately $1,567 and $1,316 was recorded as of September 30, 2020 and December 31, 2019, respectively, for estimated unpaid claims and is included within other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

Note 14. Segments

The Company applies the provisions of ASC Topic 280, Segment Reporting. An operating segment is defined as a component that engages in business activities whose operating results are reviewed by the chief operating decision maker and for which discrete financial information is available. Based on the provisions of ASC 280, the Company has determined it has one operating segment. The Company does not earn revenues or have long-lived assets located in foreign countries.

Note 15. Fair value of financial instruments

Fair value provides information on what the Company may realize if certain assets were sold or might pay to transfer certain liabilities based upon an exit price. Financial assets and liabilities that are measured and reported at fair value are classified into a three-level hierarchy that prioritizes the inputs used in the valuation process. A financial instrument’s categorization within the valuation hierarchy is based on the lowest level of any input that is significant to the fair value measurement. The hierarchy is based on the observability and objectivity of the pricing inputs as follows:

16

The following table lists the Company’s financial assets and liabilities accounted for at fair value by the fair value hierarchy:

Fair value measurements for the Company’s cash and cash equivalents are classified based upon Level 1 measurements because such measurements are based upon quoted market prices in active markets for identical assets.

Accounts receivable, accounts payable, long-term debt and accrued liabilities are recorded in the financial statements at cost and approximate fair value.

Deferred compensation liabilities are recorded at amounts due to participants at the time of deferral. Deferrals are invested in an investment vehicle based on the options made available to the participant, considered to be Level 1 and Level 2 on the fair value hierarchy, with the majority of the balance as Level 2. The change in fair value is recorded in the Profit sharing, bonuses, and deferred compensation line item on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). The balance due to participants is reflected on the Deferred compensation and long-term incentive line item on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The Company’s non-financial assets such as intangible assets and property, plant, and equipment are re-measured at fair value when there is an indication of impairment and adjusted only when an impairment charge is recognized.

Note 16. Common Equity

On May 13, 2019 the Company issued a stock dividend specific to pre-IPO shares, of approximately 1,334.34-for-1. The share dividend was accounted for as a 1,334.34-for-1 stock split and is retroactively reflected in these consolidated financial statements. All share redemption provisions were removed effective with the IPO.

Note 17. Temporary Equity

Prior to our IPO in May 2019, our common stock was considered redeemable under GAAP because of certain repurchase obligations related to the ESOP. As a result, all common shares were recorded as temporary equity (redeemable common shares) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at their redemption values as of the respective balance sheet dates.

All contractual redemption features were removed at the time of the IPO. As a consequence, all outstanding shares of common stock ceased to be considered temporary equity and were reclassified to Shareholders’ Equity, including the associated balances of retained earnings. As the common shares have no par value, the amounts recorded in temporary equity for the share redemption value were recorded to additional paid-in capital within Shareholders’ Equity upon the transfer.

The following table shows all changes to temporary equity during the nine months ended September 30, 2019.

Note 18. Revenue Recognition

Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities

The Company has contract assets and contract liabilities, which are included in other current assets and other current liabilities on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet, respectively. Contract assets include products where the Company has satisfied its performance obligation, but receipt of payment is contingent upon delivery. Contract liabilities include deferred tooling revenue, where the performance obligation was not met. The performance obligation is satisfied when the tooling is completed and the customer signs off through the Product Part Approval Process (PPAP). At this time, the tool is placed into service and the cost to build the tooling is released from the balance sheet and included in cost of goods sold.

The Company’s contracts with customers are short-term in nature; therefore, revenue is typically recognized, billed and collected within a 12-month period. The following table reflects the changes in our contract assets and liabilities during the nine months ended September 30, 2020.

Disaggregated Revenue

The following table represents a disaggregation of revenue by product category:

Note 19. Concentration of major customers

The following customers accounted for 10% or greater of the Company’s recorded net sales and net trade receivables:

Note 20. Stock based compensation

The Mayville Engineering Company, Inc. 2019 Omnibus Incentive Plan provides the Company the ability to grant monetary payments based on the value of its common stock, up to two million shares.

The Company recognizes stock-based compensation using the fair value provisions prescribed by ASC Topic 718, Compensation – Stock Compensation. Accordingly, compensation costs for awards of stock-based compensation settled in shares are determined based on the fair value of the share-based instrument at the time of grant and are recognized as expense over the vesting period of the share-based instrument. For units, fair value is equivalent to the stock price at the date of grant. The Black-Scholes option pricing model is utilized to determine fair value for options.

Cancellations and forfeitures are accounted for as incurred.

Stock awards were granted on May 12, 2020, February 27, 2020, and May 8, 2019. There were no stock awards granted prior to this.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2020, 264,991 units vested. For the same period, 125,414 options vested with a strike price of $17.00. There was no vesting for the three months ended September 30, 2020.

As of September 30, 2020, 843,942 options remained outstanding with a weighted average strike price of $9.97 and a weighted average contractual life of 9.31 years remaining.

The Company’s stock-based compensation expense by award type is summarized as follows:

One-time IPO unit awards are fully expensed as of September 30, 2020.

A rollforward of unrecognized stock-based compensation expense is displayed in the table below. Unrecognized stock-based compensation expense as of September 30, 2020 will be expensed over the remaining requisite service period from which individual award values relate, up to February 27, 2022.

Note 21. Greenwood Facility Closure and Restructuring

Based on the Company’s investments in new technology and automation, which have resulted in a smaller footprint requirement to maintain manufacturing capacity, the Company announced it would be closing its Greenwood, SC facility on May 6, 2020. The facility closure was finalized during the third quarter of 2020 with all customer components re-distributed amongst five other MEC manufacturing facilities. All customer relationships and manufactured components were maintained through this transition without disruption to our customers.

Costs associated with the closure are being accounted for in accordance with ASC 420 Exit or Disposal Cost Obligations.

For the three months ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred $687 of costs associated with the facility closure and restructuring including $51 for severance and retention bonuses, $88 for the loss on sale of manufacturing equipment not transferred to another facility, $78 for the buyout of operating leases, and the remainder mostly related to costs to close the facility and relocate equipment to other facilities. For the nine months ended September 30, 2020, the Company incurred $2,524 of costs associated with the facility closure and restructuring, including $282 for severance and retention bonus, $931 for the loss on sale of manufacturing equipment not transferred to another MEC facility, $78 for the buyout of operating leases, $622 for the disposition of inventory, and the remainder mostly related to costs to close the facility and relocate equipment to other facilities. These costs were recognized on the cost of sales line item of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss). The Company expects to incur an immaterial amount of additional costs associated with the facility closure in the fourth quarter this year.

The Greenwood facility has a net book value of approximately $3,552 as of September 30, 2020 and is classified as assets held for sale on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet. Based on information provided by reputable independent third parties, the Company has concluded that the fair value of the facility exceeds its net book value.

The following table summarizes the activity related to the Greenwood restructuring through September 30, 2020:

20

As a result of the Greenwood facility closure, future earnings and cash flows will no longer be impacted by the depreciation associated with the assets disposed of or the facility, maintenance costs of the facility, and facility personnel expenses.

Assets disposed of had a net book value of $2,475 with a remaining useful life of approximately 3 years resulting in approximately $825 of annual depreciation expense that will no longer be incurred. The facility has a net book value of $3,552 as of September 30, 2020 with a remaining weighted average useful life of approximately 27 years resulting in approximately $133 of annual depreciation expense that will no longer be incurred.

The Company incurred approximately $800 of annual facility maintenance costs, including utilities, that will no longer be incurred.

Total personnel costs associated with the facility were approximately $2,250 for the first quarter 2020 resulting in approximately $9,000 of annual personnel expenses, of which the majority of these costs will be transitioned to the other five MEC facilities that will now be manufacturing these components. As previously mentioned, all customer relationships and manufacturing programs were retained through the transition.

The aforementioned depreciation, maintenance costs, and personnel expenses associated with the Greenwood facility have been classified as cost of sales on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Comprehensive Income (Loss).

Note 22. Subsequent events

The company evaluated events and transactions for potential recognition or disclosure in the interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements through November 3, 2020, the date on which the interim unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements were available to be issued.

Overview

MEC is a leading U.S.-based value-added manufacturing partner that provides a broad range of prototyping and tooling, production fabrication, coating, assembly and aftermarket components. Our customers operate in diverse end markets, including heavy-and medium-duty commercial vehicles, construction & access equipment, powersports, agriculture, military and other end markets. We have developed long-standing relationships with our blue-chip customers based upon a high level of experience, trust and confidence.

Our one operating segment focuses on producing metal components that are used in a broad range of heavy-and medium-duty commercial vehicles, construction & access equipment, powersports, agricultural, military and other products.

In May 2019, we completed our IPO. In conjunction with the IPO, the Company’s legacy business converted from an S corporation to a C corporation. As a result, the consolidated business is subject to paying federal and state corporate income taxes on its taxable income from May 9, 2019 forward.

COVID-19 Impact

COVID-19 has had and will continue to have a negative impact on our business, financial condition, cash flows, and results of operations, although the full extent is uncertain.

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2020, net sales reflected the significant disruption we encountered primarily due to COVID-19 with customer shutdowns, demand changes, and continued destocking, which were most apparent in the Commercial Vehicle, Agriculture and Construction & Access Equipment end markets served. Despite MEC and its customer base carrying the essential business designation, customer production facilities shut down 5 – 6 weeks on average during the second quarter due to COVID-19. As a direct result of the customer shutdowns, MEC temporarily halted production at some of its facilities during the second quarter. Customer manufacturing facilities gradually reopened toward the end of the second quarter, but MEC production volumes remain below pre-pandemic levels as of the end of the third quarter with all MEC facilities open. Despite the decline in volumes for the second and third quarters, all existing customer relationships and manufacturing programs remain intact. While end markets have started to stabilize, we have improved our near- and long-term cost structure through facility and process optimization and are actively working with our customers to grow our partnerships while pursuing incremental sales through a wide range of new customer and market opportunities.

The future financial effects of COVID-19 are unknown due to many factors. These factors include uncertainty of the effectiveness of governmental actions to address COVID-19, including health, monetary and fiscal policies, the effect of elevated levels of sovereign and state debt, capital market disruptions, changes in demand and pricing, trade agreements, other geopolitical events, and volatility in the price of many commodities. As a result, predicting the Company’s forecasted financial performance is difficult and subject to many assumptions.

The Company’s first priority has been to safeguard the health and well-being of its employees while fulfilling its obligations as an essential business serving its customer base. This proactive approach has kept employees safe and production facilities operational

based on customer demand. Our goal is to continue to successfully manage through the effects of COVID-19 and strengthen our position serving customers in the future.

How We Assess Performance

Net Sales. Net sales reflect sales of our components and products net of allowances for returns and discounts. In addition to COVID-19, several factors affect our net sales in any given period, including general economic conditions, weather, timing of acquisitions and the production schedules of our customers. Net sales are recognized at the time of shipment to the customer.

Manufacturing Margins. Manufacturing margins represents net sales less cost of sales. Cost of sales consists of all direct and indirect costs used in the manufacturing process, including raw materials, labor, equipment costs, depreciation, lease expenses, subcontract costs and other directly related overhead costs. Our cost of sales is directly affected by the fluctuations in commodity prices, primarily sheet steel and aluminum, but these changes are largely mitigated by contractual agreements with our customers that allow us to pass through these price changes based upon certain market indexes.

Depreciation and Amortization. We carry property, plant and equipment on our balance sheet at cost, net of accumulated depreciation and amortization. Depreciation on property, plant and equipment is computed on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful life of the asset. Amortization expense is the periodic expense related to leasehold improvements and intangible assets. Leasehold improvements are amortized over the lesser of the life of the underlying asset or the remaining lease term. Our intangible assets were recognized as a result of certain acquisitions and are generally amortized on a straight-line basis over the estimated useful lives of the assets.

Other Selling, General, and Administrative Expenses. Other selling, general and administrative expenses consist primarily of salaries and personnel costs for our sales and marketing, finance, human resources, information systems, administration and other certain managerial employees and certain corporate level administrative expenses such as incentive compensation, audit, accounting, legal and other consulting and professional services, travel, and insurance.

Other Key Performance Indicators

EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin

EBITDA represents net income before interest expense, provision (benefit) for income taxes, depreciation and amortization. EBITDA Margin represents EBITDA as a percentage of net sales for each period.

Adjusted EBITDA represents EBITDA before transaction fees incurred in connection with the acquisition of Defiance Metal Products Co., Inc. (DMP) and the IPO, the loss on debt extinguishment relating to our December 2018 credit agreement, non-cash purchase accounting charges including costs recognized on the step-up of acquired inventory and contingent consideration fair value adjustments, one-time increases in deferred compensation and long-term incentive plan expenses related to the IPO, stock-based compensation, and restructuring expenses related to the closure of the Greenwood facility. Adjusted EBITDA Margin represents Adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales for each period. These metrics are supplemental measures of our operating performance that are neither required by, nor presented in accordance with, GAAP. These measures should not be considered as an alternative to net income or any other performance measure derived in accordance with GAAP as an indicator of our operating performance. We present Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin as management uses these measures as key performance indicators, and we believe they are measures frequently used by securities analysts, investors and other parties to evaluate companies in our industry. These measures have limitations as analytical tools and should not be considered in isolation or as substitutes for analysis of our results as reported under GAAP.

Starting in the first quarter of 2020, we excluded stock-based compensation expense from Adjusted EBITDA. Management excludes this charge when evaluating the performance of the business because it is a non-cash charge, and the Company is able to fund vesting obligations through treasury shares. Further, the exclusion of these charges aligns with the calculation of Adjusted EBITDA for purposes of our covenant calculations under the Credit Agreement. And finally, revaluations of grant date fair values can vary significantly with the passage of time without any accounting impact. For example, the fair value of the stock-based compensation awards granted in May 2019 would have been approximately half of that value had they been granted at the end of this quarter.

Our calculation of EBITDA, EBITDA Margin, Adjusted EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA Margin may not be comparable to the similarly named measures reported by other companies. Potential differences between our measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA compared to other similar companies’ measures of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may include differences in capital structure and tax positions.
