Notes to Consolidated Condensed Financial Statements

Six Months Ended April 1, 2023

(Unaudited)

(dollars in thousands, except per share data)

Note 1 - Basis of Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements have been prepared by management in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. In the opinion of management, all adjustments consisting of normal recurring adjustments considered necessary for the fair presentation of results for the interim period have been included. The results of operations for the three and six months ended April 1, 2023 are not necessarily indicative of the results expected for the full year. The accompanying unaudited consolidated condensed financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements and notes thereto included in our Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended October 1, 2022. All references to years in these financial statements are to fiscal years.

Impairment of Assets

Long-lived assets, including acquired intangible assets, are reviewed for impairment whenever events or changes in circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of those assets may not be recoverable. We use undiscounted cash flows to determine whether impairment exists and measure any impairment loss using discounted cash flows, or another comparable method.

In 2023, we recorded a $1,000 impairment charge on long-lived assets in our Aircraft Controls segment. These charges relate to equipment that experienced a decline in value due to the U.S. Air Force announcement to retire the KC-10 aerial refueling tanker. In addition, we have recorded a $219 impairment charge on receivables in our Space and Defense Controls segment associated with an expected cancellation of a contract.These charges are included in asset impairment in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Earnings.

In 2022, we recorded impairment charges on long-lived assets in our Aircraft Controls segment. These charges relate to equipment that experienced a significant decline in value due to a slower than expected recovery of our commercial aircraft business. In addition, we recorded impairment charges on receivables and inventories associated with Russian actions in Ukraine. These charges are included in asset impairment in the Consolidated Condensed Statement of Earnings.

Reclassifications

Certain prior year amounts have been reclassified to conform to current year's presentation, which management does not consider to be material.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

There have been no accounting pronouncements adopted for the six months ended April 1, 2023.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

We consider the applicability and impact of all Accounting Standard Updates ("ASU"). ASUs not listed were assessed and determined to be either not applicable, or had or are expected to have an immaterial impact on our financial statements and related disclosures.

Note 2 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers

We recognize revenue from contracts with customers using the five-step model prescribed in ASC 606. The first step is identifying the contract. The identification of a contract with a customer requires an assessment of each party’s rights and obligations regarding the products or services to be transferred, including an evaluation of termination clauses and presently enforceable rights and obligations. Each party’s rights and obligations and the associated terms and conditions are typically determined in purchase orders. For sales that are governed by master supply agreements under which provisions define specific program requirements, purchase orders are issued under these agreements to reflect presently enforceable rights and obligations for the units of products and services being purchased.

Contracts are sometimes modified to account for changes in contract specifications and requirements. When this occurs, we assess the modification as prescribed in ASC 606 and determine whether the existing contract needs to be modified (and revenue cumulatively caught up), whether the existing contract needs to be terminated and a new contract needs to be created, or whether the existing contract remains and a new contract needs to be created. This is determined based on the rights and obligations within the modification as well as the associated transaction price.

The next step is identifying the performance obligations. A performance obligation is a promise to transfer goods or services to a customer that is distinct in the context of the contract, as defined by ASC 606. We identify a performance obligation for each promise in a contract to transfer a distinct good or service to the customer. As part of our assessment, we consider all goods and/or services promised in the contract, regardless of whether they are explicitly stated or implied by customary business practices. The products and services in our contracts are typically not distinct from one another due to their complexity and reliance on each other or, in many cases, we provide a significant integration service. Accordingly, many of our contracts are accounted for as one performance obligation. In limited cases, our contracts have more than one distinct performance obligation, which occurs when we perform activities that are not highly complex or interrelated or involve different product life cycles. Warranties are provided on certain contracts, but do not typically provide for services beyond standard assurances and are therefore not distinct performance obligations under ASC 606.

The third step is determining the transaction price, which represents the amount of consideration we expect to be entitled to receive from a customer in exchange for providing the goods or services. There are times when this consideration is variable, for example a volume discount, and must be estimated. Sales, use, value-added, and excise taxes are excluded from the transaction price, where applicable.

The fourth step is allocating the transaction price. The transaction price must be allocated to the performance obligations identified in the contract based on relative stand-alone selling prices when available, or an estimate for each distinct good or service in the contract when standalone prices are not available. Our contracts with customers generally require payment under normal commercial terms after delivery. Payment terms are typically within 30 to 60 days of delivery. The timing of satisfaction of our performance obligations does not significantly vary from the typical timing of payment.

The final step is the recognition of revenue. We recognize revenue as the performance obligations are satisfied. ASC 606 provides guidance to help determine if we are satisfying the performance obligation at a point in time or over time. In determining when performance obligations are satisfied, we consider factors such as contract terms, payment terms and whether there is an alternative use of the product or service. In essence, we recognize revenue when, or as control of, the promised goods or services transfer to the customer.

Revenue is recognized either over time using the cost-to-cost method, or point in time method. The over-time method of revenue recognition is predominantly used in Aircraft Controls and Space and Defense Controls. We use this method for U.S. Government contracts and repair and overhaul arrangements as we are creating or enhancing assets that the customer controls as the assets are being created or enhanced. In addition, many of our large commercial contracts qualify for over-time accounting as our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date. Our over-time contracts are primarily firm fixed price.

Table of Contents

Revenue recognized at the point in time control is transferred to the customer is used most frequently in Industrial Systems. We use this method for commercial contracts in which the asset being created has an alternative use. We determine the point in time control transfers to the customer by weighing the five indicators provided by ASC 606 - the entity has a present right to payment; the customer has legal title; the customer has physical possession; the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership; and the customer has accepted the asset. When control has transferred to the customer, profit is generated as cost of sales is recorded and as revenue is recognized. Inventory costs include all product manufacturing costs such as direct material, direct labor, other direct costs and indirect overhead cost allocations. Shipping and handling costs are considered costs to fulfill a contract and not considered performance obligations. They are included in cost of sales as incurred.

Revenue is recognized on contracts using the cost-to-cost method of accounting as work progresses toward completion as determined by the ratio of cumulative costs incurred to date to estimated total contract costs at completion, multiplied by the total estimated contract revenue, less cumulative revenue recognized in prior periods. We believe that cumulative costs incurred to date as a percentage of estimated total contract costs at completion is an appropriate measure of progress toward satisfaction of performance obligations as this measure most accurately depicts the progress of our work and transfer of control to our customers. Changes in estimates affecting sales, costs and profits are recognized in the period in which the change becomes known using the cumulative catch-up method of accounting, resulting in the cumulative effect of changes reflected in the period. Estimates are reviewed and updated quarterly for substantially all contracts. For the three and six months ended April 1, 2023 we recognized additional revenue of $2,233 and lower revenue of $2,066, respectively, for adjustments made to performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods. For the three and six months ended April 2, 2022 we recognized lower revenue of $2,238 and additional revenue of $8,740, respectively, for adjustments made to performance obligations satisfied (or partially satisfied) in previous periods.

Contract costs include only allocable, allowable and reasonable costs which are included in cost of sales when incurred. For applicable U.S. Government contracts, contract costs are determined in accordance with the Federal Acquisition Regulations and the related Cost Accounting Standards. The nature of these costs includes development engineering costs and product manufacturing costs such as direct material, direct labor, other direct costs and indirect overhead costs. Contract profit is recorded as a result of the revenue recognized less costs incurred in any reporting period. Variable consideration and contract modifications, such as performance incentives, penalties, contract claims or change orders are considered in estimating revenues, costs and profits when they can be reliably estimated and realization is considered probable. Revenue recognized on contracts for unresolved claims or unapproved contract change orders was not material for the three and six months ended April 1, 2023.

As of April 1, 2023, we had contract reserves of $45,602. For contracts with anticipated losses at completion, a provision for the entire amount of the estimated remaining loss is charged against income in the period in which the loss becomes known. Contract losses are determined considering all direct and indirect contract costs, exclusive of any selling, general or administrative cost allocations that are treated as period expenses. Loss reserves are more common on firm fixed-price contracts that involve, to varying degrees, the design and development of new and unique controls or control systems to meet the customers’ specifications. In accordance with ASC 606, we calculate contract losses at the contract level, versus the performance obligation level. Recall reserves are recorded when additional work is needed on completed products for them to meet contract specifications. Contract-related loss reserves are recorded for the additional work needed on completed and delivered products in order for them to meet contract specifications.

Contract Assets and Liabilities

Unbilled receivables (contract assets) primarily represent revenues recognized for performance obligations that have been satisfied but for which amounts have not been billed. These are included as Receivables on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Contract advances (contract liabilities) relate to payments received from customers in advance of the satisfaction of performance obligations for a contract. We do not consider contract advances to be significant financing components as the intent of these payments in advance are for reasons other than providing a significant financing benefit and are customary in our industry.

Total contract assets and contract liabilities are as follows:


	April 1, 2023		October 1, 2022
Unbilled receivables	$	685,398	$	614,760
Contract advances	317,253		296,899
Net contract assets	$	368,145	$	317,861

The increase in contract assets reflects the net impact of additional unbilled revenues recorded in excess of revenue recognized during the period. The increase in contract liabilities reflects the net impact of additional deferred revenues recorded in excess of revenue recognized during the period. For the three and six months ended April 1, 2023, we recognized $76,349 and $165,148 of revenue, that was included in the contract liability balance at the beginning of the year.

Remaining Performance Obligations

As of April 1, 2023, the aggregate amount of the transaction price allocated to the performance obligations that are unsatisfied (or partially unsatisfied) was $5,200,000. We expect to recognize approximately 44% of that amount as sales over the next twelve months and the balance thereafter.

Disaggregation of Revenue

See Note 20 - Segments, for disclosures related to disaggregation of revenue.

Note 3 - Acquisitions and Divestitures

Acquisitions

On February 21, 2022, we acquired TEAM Accessories Limited ("TEAM") based in Dublin, Ireland for a purchase price, net of acquired cash, of $14,394, consisting of $11,832 in cash and contingent consideration with an initial fair value of $2,562. TEAM specializes in Maintenance, Repair and Overhaul of engine and airframe components. This operation is included in our Aircraft Controls segment.

Divestitures

On September 30, 2022, we sold a sonar business based in the United Kingdom previously included in our Industrial Systems segment. We have cumulatively received net proceeds of $13,075 and recorded a loss of $15,246, net of transaction costs. The transaction is subject to adjustments associated with amounts currently held in escrow.

On September 20, 2022, we sold assets of a security business based in Northbrook, Illinois previously included in our Space and Defense Controls segment. We have cumulatively received net proceeds of $9,108 and recorded a loss of $4,324, net of transaction costs. The transaction is subject to adjustments associated with amounts currently held in escrow.

On December 3, 2021, we sold the assets of our Navigation Aids ("NAVAIDS") business based in Salt Lake City, Utah previously included in our Aircraft Controls segment to Thales USA Inc. We have cumulatively received net proceeds of $36,550 and recorded a gain of $16,146, net of transaction costs.

Note 4 - Receivables

Receivables consist of:


	April 1, 2023		October 1, 2022
Accounts receivable	$	382,114	$	363,137


Unbilled receivables	685,398		614,760

Other	16,547		16,973
Less allowance for credit losses	(4,079)		(4,608)
Receivables, net	$	1,079,980	$	990,262

Moog Receivables LLC (the "Receivables Subsidiary"), a wholly owned bankruptcy remote special purpose subsidiary of Moog Inc. (the "Company"), as seller, the Company, as master servicer, Wells Fargo Bank, N.A., as administrative agent (the "Agent") and certain purchasers (collectively, the "Purchasers") entered into an Amended and Restated Receivables Purchase Agreement (the "RPA"). The RPA matures on November 4, 2024 and is subject to customary termination events related to transactions of this type.

Under the RPA, the Receivables Subsidiary may sell receivables to the Purchasers in amounts up to a $100,000 limit. The receivables will be sold to the Purchasers in consideration for the Purchasers making payments of cash, which is referred to as "capital" for purposes of the RPA, to the Receivables Subsidiary in accordance with the terms of the RPA. The Receivables Subsidiary may sell receivables to the Purchasers so long as certain conditions are satisfied, including that, at any date of determination, the aggregate capital paid to the Receivables Subsidiary does not exceed a "capital coverage amount", equal to an adjusted net receivables pool balance minus a required reserve. Each Purchaser's share of capital accrues yield at a variable rate plus an applicable margin.

The parties intend that the conveyance of receivables to the Agent, for the ratable benefit of the Purchasers will constitute a purchase and sale of receivables and not a pledge for security. The Receivables Subsidiary has guaranteed to each Purchaser and Agent the prompt payment of sold receivables, and to secure the prompt payment and performance of such guaranteed obligations, the Receivables Subsidiary has granted a security interest to the Agent, for the benefit of the Purchasers, in all assets of the Receivables Subsidiary. The assets of the Receivables Subsidiary are not available to pay our creditors or any affiliate thereof. In our capacity as master servicer under the RPA, we are responsible for administering and collecting receivables and have made customary representations, warranties, covenants and indemnities. We also provided a performance guarantee for the benefit of the Purchaser.

The proceeds of the RPA are classified as operating activities in our Consolidated Condensed Statement of Cash Flows and were used to pay off the outstanding balance of the Securitization Program. Cash received from collections of sold receivables is used by the Receivables Subsidiary to fund additional purchases of receivables on a revolving basis or to return all or any portion of outstanding capital of the Purchaser. Subsequent collections on the pledged receivables, which have not been sold, will be classified as operating cash flows at the time of collection. Total receivables sold and cash collections under the RPA were $123,434 and $238,476 for the three and six months ended April 1, 2023, respectively. The fair value of the sold receivables approximated book value due to their credit quality and short-term nature, and as a result, no gain or loss on sale of receivables was recorded.

As of April 1, 2023, the amount sold to the Purchasers was $100,000, which was derecognized from the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. As collateral against sold receivables, the Receivables Subsidiary maintains a certain level of unsold receivables, which was $731,260 at April 1, 2023.

The allowance for credit losses is based on our assessment of the collectability of customer accounts. The allowance is determined by considering factors such as historical experience, credit quality, age of the accounts receivable, current economic conditions and reasonable forecasted financial information that may affect a customer’s ability to pay.

Note 7 - Leases

We lease certain manufacturing facilities, office space and machinery and equipment globally. At inception we evaluate whether a contractual arrangement contains a lease. Specifically, we consider whether we control the underlying asset and have the right to obtain substantially all the economic benefits or outputs from the asset. If the contractual arrangement contains a lease, we then determine the classification of the lease, operating or finance, using the classification criteria described in ASC 842. We then determine the term of the lease based on terms and conditions of the contractual arrangement, including whether the options to extend or terminate the lease are reasonably certain to be exercised. We have elected to not separate lease components from non-lease components, such as common area maintenance charges and instead, account for the lease and non-lease components as a single component.

Our lease right-of-use ("ROU") assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and our lease liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments. Operating lease ROU assets are included in Operating lease right-of-use assets and operating lease liabilities are included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Finance lease ROU assets are included in Property, plant and equipment and finance lease liabilities are included in Accrued liabilities and other and Other long-term liabilities on the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets. Operating lease cost is included in Cost of sales and Selling, general and administrative on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. Finance lease cost is included in Cost of sales, Selling, general and administrative and Interest on the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings.

The ROU assets and lease liabilities for both operating and finance leases are recognized as of the commencement date at the net present value of the fixed minimum lease payments over the term of the lease, using the discount rate described below. Variable lease payments are recorded in the period in which the obligation for the payment is incurred. Variable lease payments based on an index or rate are initially measured using the index or rate as of the commencement date of the lease and included in the fixed minimum lease payments. For short-term leases that have a term of 12 months or less as of the commencement date, we do not recognize a ROU asset or lease liability on our balance sheet; we recognize expense as the lease payments are made over the lease term.

The discount rate used to calculate the present value of our leases is the rate implicit in the lease. If the information necessary to determine the rate implicit in the lease is not available, we use our incremental borrowing rate for collateralized debt, which is determined using our credit rating and other information available as of the lease commencement date.

The components of lease expense were as follows:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	April 1, 2023		April 2, 2022		April 1, 2023		April 2, 2022

The credit facility has a capacity of $1,100,000 and provides an expansion option, which permits us to request an increase of up to $400,000 to the credit facility upon satisfaction of certain conditions. Interest on the majority of our outstanding borrowings is principally based on SOFR plus the applicable margin. The credit facility is secured by substantially all of our U.S. assets. The loan agreement contains various covenants which, among others, specify interest coverage and maximum leverage. We are in compliance with all covenants.

The SECT has a revolving credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $35,000, maturing on July 26, 2024. Interest is based on LIBOR plus an applicable margin. A commitment fee is also charged based on a percentage of the unused amounts available and is not material.

We have $500,000 aggregate principal amount of 4.25% senior notes due December 15, 2027 with interest paid semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of each year. The senior notes are unsecured obligations, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries and contain normal incurrence-based covenants and limitations such as the ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, make other restricted payments and investments, create liens and certain corporate acts such as mergers and consolidations. We are in compliance with all covenants.

Note 12 - Derivative Financial Instruments

We principally use derivative financial instruments to manage foreign exchange risk related to foreign operations and foreign currency transactions and interest rate risk associated with long-term debt. We enter into derivative financial instruments with a number of major financial institutions to minimize counterparty credit risk.

Derivatives designated as hedging instruments

We use foreign currency contracts as cash flow hedges to effectively fix the exchange rates on future payments and revenue. To mitigate exposure in movements between various currencies, including the Philippine peso, we had outstanding foreign currency contracts with notional amounts of $14,124 at April 1, 2023. These contracts mature at various times through March 1, 2024.

We use forward currency contracts to hedge our net investment in certain foreign subsidiaries. As of April 1, 2023, we had no outstanding net investment hedges.

Interest rate swaps are used to adjust the proportion of total debt that is subject to variable and fixed interest rates. The interest rate swaps are designated as hedges of the amount of future cash flows related to interest payments on variable-rate debt that, in combination with the interest payments on the debt, convert a portion of the variable-rate debt to fixed-rate debt. At April 1, 2023, we had no outstanding interest rate swaps.

Foreign currency contracts, net investment hedges and interest rate swaps are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at fair value and the related gains or losses are deferred in Shareholders’ Equity as a component of Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income (Loss) ("AOCIL"). These deferred gains and losses are reclassified into the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings, as necessary, during the periods in which the related payments or receipts affect earnings. However, to the extent the foreign currency contracts and interest rate swaps are not perfectly effective in offsetting the change in the value of the payments and revenue being hedged, the ineffective portion of these contracts is recognized in earnings immediately. Ineffectiveness was not material in the first six months of 2023 or 2022.

Table of Contents

Derivatives not designated as hedging instruments

We also have foreign currency exposure on balances, primarily intercompany, that are denominated in a foreign currency and are adjusted to current values using period-end exchange rates. The resulting gains or losses are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. To minimize foreign currency exposure, we have foreign currency contracts with notional amounts of $122,789 at April 1, 2023. The foreign currency contracts are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Balance Sheets at fair value and resulting gains or losses are recorded in the Consolidated Condensed Statements of Earnings. We recorded the following gains and losses on foreign currency contracts which are included in other income or expense and generally offset the gains or losses from the foreign currency adjustments on the intercompany balances that are also included in other income or expense:

Note 13 - Fair Value

Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction between market participants at the measurement date. Depending on the nature of the asset or liability, various techniques and assumptions can be used to estimate fair value. The definition of the fair value hierarchy is as follows:

Level 1 – Quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.

Level 2 – Observable inputs other than quoted prices in active markets for similar assets and liabilities.

Level 3 – Inputs for which significant valuation assumptions are unobservable in a market and therefore value is based on the best available data, some of which is internally developed and considers risk premiums that a market participant would require.

Our derivatives are valued using various pricing models or discounted cash flow analyses that incorporate observable market data, such as interest rate yield curves and currency rates, and are classified as Level 2 within the valuation hierarchy.

The following table presents the fair values and classification of our financial assets and liabilities measured on a recurring basis, all of which are classified as Level 2, except for the acquisition contingent consideration, which is classified as Level 3:


	Balance Sheets location	April 1, 2023		October 1, 2022
Foreign currency contracts	Other current assets	$	577	$	1,241
Foreign currency contracts	Other assets	—		165



	Total assets	$	577	$	1,406
Foreign currency contracts	Accrued liabilities and other	$	1,008	$	4,615
Foreign currency contracts	Other long-term liabilities	—		751




Acquisition contingent consideration	Other long-term liabilities	2,954		3,272
	Total liabilities	$	3,962	$	8,638

The changes in financial liabilities classified as Level 3 within the fair value hierarchy are as follows:


	Three Months Ended				Six Months Ended
	April 1, 2023		April 2, 2022		April 1, 2023		April 2, 2022
Balance at beginning of period	$	3,365	$	—	$	3,272	$	—
Additions from acquisition	(491)		3,053		(491)		3,053
Increase in discounted future cash flows recorded as interest expense	80		31		173		31


Balance at end of period	$	2,954	$	3,084	$	2,954	$	3,084

Our only financial instrument for which the carrying value differs from its fair value is long-term debt. At April 1, 2023, the fair value of long-term debt was $920,817 compared to its carrying value of $964,574. The fair value of long-term debt is classified as Level 2 within the fair value hierarchy and was estimated based on quoted market prices.

Note 21 - Related Party Transactions

John Scannell, Moog's Non-Executive Chairman of the Board of Directors, is a member of the Board of Directors of M&T Bank Corporation and M&T Bank. We currently engage with M&T Bank in the ordinary course of business for various financing activities, all of which were initiated prior to the election of Mr. Scannell to the Board. M&T Bank provides credit extension for routine purchases, which for the three and six months ended April 1, 2023 totaled $3,637 and $7,054, respectively. Credit extension for the three and six months ended April 2, 2022 totaled $4,220 and $7,863, respectively. At April 1, 2023, we held outstanding leases with a total original cost of $14,245.

Further details of the U.S. revolving credit facility can be found in Note 10 - Indebtedness. Wilmington Trust, a subsidiary of M&T Bank, is the trustee of the pension assets for our qualified U.S. defined benefit plan.

Note 22 - Commitments and Contingencies

From time to time, we are involved in legal proceedings. We are not a party to any pending legal proceedings which management believes will result in a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

We are engaged in administrative proceedings with governmental agencies and legal proceedings with governmental agencies and other third parties in the normal course of our business, including litigation under Superfund laws, regarding environmental matters. We believe that adequate reserves have been established for our share of the estimated cost for all currently pending environmental administrative or legal proceedings and do not expect that these environmental matters will have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

In the ordinary course of business we could be subject to ongoing claims or disputes from our customers, the ultimate settlement of which could have a material adverse impact on our consolidated results of operations. While the receivables and any loss provisions recorded to date reflect management's best estimate of the projected costs to complete a given project, there is still significant effort required to complete the ultimate deliverable. Future variability in internal cost and future profitability is dependent upon a number of factors including deliveries, performance and government budgetary pressures. The inability to achieve a satisfactory contractual solution, further unplanned delays, additional developmental cost growth or variations in any of the estimates used in the existing contract analysis could lead to further loss provisions. Additional losses could have a material adverse impact on our financial condition, results of operations or cash flows in the period in which the loss may be recognized.

We are contingently liable for $22,027 related to standby letters of credit issued by a bank to third parties on our behalf at April 1, 2023.

Note 23 - Subsequent Event

On April 27, 2023, we declared a $0.27 per share quarterly dividend payable on issued and outstanding shares of our Class A and Class B common stock on May 30, 2023 to shareholders of record at the close of business on May 12, 2023.

OVERVIEW

We are a worldwide designer, manufacturer and systems integrator of high performance precision motion and fluid controls and control systems for a broad range of applications in aerospace and defense and industrial markets.

Within the aerospace and defense market, our products and systems include:

•Defense market - primary and secondary flight controls for military aircraft, turreted weapon systems, stabilization and automatic ammunition loading controls for armored combat vehicles, tactical and strategic missile steering controls and gun aiming controls.

•Commercial aircraft market - primary and secondary flight controls for commercial aircraft.

•Space market - satellite positioning controls and thrust vector controls, as well as integrated space vehicles and hypersonic applications.

In the industrial market, our products are used in a wide range of applications including:

•Industrial automation market - components and systems for injection and blow molding machinery, heavy industry applications for steel and aluminum production, metal forming presses, flight simulation motion control systems and material and automotive structural and fatigue testing systems.

•Medical market - components and pumps for enteral clinical nutrition and infusion therapy, CT scan medical equipment, ultrasonic sensors and surgical handpieces and sleep apnea equipment.

•Energy market - control and safety components for steam and gas power generation turbines and oil and gas exploration components and systems.

We operate under three segments, Aircraft Controls, Space and Defense Controls and Industrial Systems. Our principal manufacturing facilities are located in the United States, Philippines, United Kingdom, Germany, Italy, Costa Rica, China, Netherlands, Luxembourg, Japan, Czech Republic, Canada, India and Lithuania.

Under ASC 606, 64% of revenue was recognized over time for the quarter ended April 1, 2023, using the cost-to-cost method of accounting. The over-time method of revenue recognition is predominantly used in Aircraft Controls and Space and Defense Controls. We use this method for U.S. Government contracts and repair and overhaul arrangements as we are creating or enhancing assets that the customer controls. In addition, many of our large commercial contracts qualify for over-time accounting as our performance does not create an asset with an alternative use and we have an enforceable right to payment for performance completed to date.

For the quarter ended April 1, 2023, 36% of revenue was recognized at the point in time control transferred to the customer. This method of revenue recognition is used most frequently in Industrial Systems. We use this method for commercial contracts in which the asset being created has an alternative use. We determine the point in time control transfers to the customer by weighing the five indicators provided by ASC 606. When control has transferred to the customer, profit is generated as cost of sales is recorded and as revenue is recognized.

We concentrate on providing our customers with products designed and manufactured to the highest quality standards. Our technical experts work collaboratively with customers around the world, delivering capabilities for mission-critical solutions. This approach is critical in creating products that are applied in demanding applications, "When Performance Really Matters®." By capitalizing on this customer intimacy, we believe we have achieved a leadership position in the high performance, precision controls market. Additionally, these strengths yield a broad control product portfolio, across a diverse base of customers and end markets.

Table of Contents

By focusing on customer intimacy and commitment to solving our customers' most demanding technical problems, we have been able to expand our motion control franchise to multiple markets; organically growing from a high-performance components manufacturer to a high-performance systems designer, manufacturer and systems integrator. In addition, we continue expanding our content positions on our current platforms, seeking to be the market-leading supplier in the niche markets we serve. We also look for innovation in all aspects of our business, employing new technologies to improve productivity and operational performance.

Our path to success comes from our talented employees building a sustainable company for current and future generations. We are concentrating our efforts on: customer focus, people, community and the planet, and financial strength. Initiatives in these three areas will drive accountability, improve operational performance, increase employee engagement and workforce diversity and, with business simplification, result in improved financial results and increased shareholder value.

We will improve shareholder value through strategic revenue growth, both organic and acquired, through improving operating efficiencies and manufacturing productivity and through utilizing low cost manufacturing facilities without compromising quality. Historically, we have taken a balanced approach to capital deployment in order to maximize shareholder returns over the long term. These activities have included strategic acquisitions, share buybacks and dividend payments. Today, we believe we can create long term value for our shareholders by continuing to invest in our business through both capital expenditures as well as investments in new market opportunities. We will also continue exploring opportunities to make strategic acquisitions and return capital to shareholders.

Net sales increased in the second quarter and in the first half of 2023 compared to the same periods of 2022 across all of our segments. Weaker foreign currencies, primarily the Euro and the British Pound, relative to the U.S. Dollar, decreased sales $10 million in the second quarter and $26 million in the first half of 2023 relative to the same periods of 2022. Additionally, the absence of sales associated with our divested businesses in 2022 decreased sales $8 million in the second quarter and $20 million through the first half of 2023. The 2023 sales increases excluding these effects compared to the same periods of 2022 were 11% in the second quarter and 10% in the first half.

Gross margin in the second quarter of 2023 included an unfavorable sales mix in Aircraft Controls, contract-related charges in Space and Defense Controls and operational charges in Industrial Systems. Partially offsetting these negative impacts was the benefit of higher sales volumes. Gross margin also decreased in the first half of 2023 compared to the first half of 2022 due mostly to the same factors as the second quarter.

Research and development expenses decreased in the second quarter and in the first half of 2023 compared to the same periods of 2022. We had lower research and development activity due to our prioritization of our engineering activities on funded development programs.

Selling, general and administrative expense as a percentage of sales decreased in the second quarter and in the first half of 2023 compared to the second quarter and the first half of 2022 reflecting the incremental benefit of higher sales volume.

Interest expense in the second quarter and in the first half of 2023 increased due to higher interest rates on our outstanding debt balances and, to a lesser extent, higher debt levels.

The second quarter of 2023 included $3 million of charges for various restructuring activities and impairments across all of our segments. The second quarter of 2022 included $15 million of asset impairments, $8 million of restructuring expenses, primarily in Aircraft Controls, and $2 million of inventory write-down charges.

Through the first half of 2023, we benefited from a $10 million gain from the sale of three buildings in Industrial Systems. The first half of 2022 included a $16 million gain from the sale of our NAVAIDS business in Aircraft Controls.

The effective tax rate in the second quarter of 2023 decreased compared to the second quarter of 2022 due to the incremental benefit from share exercises.

The twelve-month backlog was relatively unchanged in the second quarter of 2023 compared with the second quarter of 2022. Within Industrial Systems, we had higher orders for simulation and test programs and for our core industrial programs. The twelve-month backlog decreased slightly in Aircraft Controls as the work-down of various military development programs was partially offset by higher orders for our business jet and commercial aftermarket programs. Space and Defense Controls' twelve-month backlog decreased slightly due in part to the absence of orders from our divested security business. Additionally, higher orders for space vehicles was offset by the timing of new and follow-on missile program orders.

Aircraft Controls' net sales increased in the second quarter and in the first half of 2023 compared to the second quarter and first half of 2022, as the continued commercial aircraft market recovery was partially offset by lower military sales.

In the second quarter of 2023, sales increased $43 million in our commercial OEM programs and $9 million in our commercial aftermarket programs as both continued to recover. Within commercial OEM, sales increased $20 million across all of our wide-body programs. Also, higher sales volumes for business jets and a strong order book for our Genesys programs increased sales $14 million. Within our commercial aftermarket programs, higher amounts of spares and repair volume increased sales $7 million for the A350 program.

Partially offsetting the commercial sales increase was a sales decline of $10 million in military aftermarket spread across most programs, as we benefited from a strong quarter a year ago. Additionally, sales for military OEM programs decreased $6 million. Lower volume on funded development programs and lower deliveries across our legacy programs were partially offset by a $7 million increase in the F-35 program.

The sales increases in the first half of 2023 compared to the first half of 2022 were largely due to the same factors as the second quarter. The continued recovery of the commercial market increased OEM program sales by $46 million and aftermarket sales by $27 million. Within our military programs, sales decreased across both our OEM and aftermarket programs due mostly to the same factors as the second quarter.

Operating margin increased in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022. The second quarter of 2023 included a $1 million impairment charge, whereas the second quarter of 2022 included $15 million of impairment and $4 million of restructuring expenses. Excluding these charges, adjusted operating margin in the second quarter of 2023 was 9.5% compared to 10.0% in the second quarter of 2022. The resulting decrease in adjusted operating margin was due to an unfavorable sales mix from higher amounts of commercial OEM sales, partially offset by lower research and development expenses.

Operating margin increased in the first half of 2023 compared to the first half of 2022. Adjustments in the first half of 2023 consisted of the second quarter charges, whereas the first half of 2022 included a $16 million gain associated with a divested business. Excluding this gain and the charges in the second quarter, the adjusted operating margin in the first half of 2023 was 9.5% and 9.3% in the first half of 2022. The resulting slight increase in adjusted operating margin in the first half of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022 is due to incremental sales volumes and $4 million of lower research and development expenses. Partially offsetting these benefits was the unfavorable sales mix due to higher levels of commercial OEM sales.

Space and Defense Controls' net sales increased in the second quarter and in the first half of 2023 compared to the second quarter and first half of 2022 primarily driven by growth in both of our markets.

In the first quarter of 2023, we shifted a product line from our defense market into our space market. Excluding this product shift, the increase in our space market sales in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022 was $18 million. This increase is primarily due to accelerated activity on satellite avionics and components programs, as well as growth on our space vehicle programs. Within our defense market, the sales increase was $5 million. The production ramp of our RIwP turret program, which hit full-rate production levels in the first quarter of 2023, increased sales $11 million. Partially offsetting the defense sales increase was a $5 million decrease due to the absence of prior year sales related to our security business that we divested in the fourth quarter of 2022.

The sales increases in the first half of 2023 compared to the first half of 2022 were largely due to the same factors as the second quarter. The strong demand for our space programs and our RIwP turret program were partially offset by the absence of sales from our divested security business.

Operating margin increased in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022. The second quarter of 2023 included $1 million of restructuring and impairment charges, while the second quarter of 2022 included $2 million of restructuring charges. Excluding these charges, adjusted operating margin for the second quarter of 2023 was 11.7% compared to 11.6% in the second quarter of 2022. The benefit of higher sales and improvements in the core business were mostly offset by close to 300 basis points of development charges on our space vehicle programs.

Excluding $2 million of restructuring and impairment charges in the first half of 2023, adjusted operating margin was 10.6%. Excluding $3 million of restructuring and inventory write-down charges in the first half of 2022, adjusted operating margin was 11.3%. The resulting decline in adjusted operating margin is primarily due to cost growth on our space vehicle development programs, partially offset by the incremental margin from higher sales and improved operational performance.

Industrial Systems' net sales increased in the second quarter and in the first half of 2023 compared to the second quarter and the first half of 2022, primarily due to general market recoveries. Weaker foreign currencies, primarily the Euro relative to the U.S. Dollar, decreased sales $7 million and $18 million, respectively. Also, sales decreased $3 million and $6 million, respectively, due to the absence of prior year sales associated with our sonar business that we divested in the fourth quarter of 2022. Excluding the impacts of weaker foreign currencies and the divested sales, the resulting sales increases in the second quarter and first half of 2023 were 8% and 12%, respectively.

In the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022, sales increased $15 million in our industrial automation market, driven by higher demand for industrial components and for our core industrial products. Partially offsetting the increase was a $5 million sales decline in our simulation and test market due to the timing for various programs within this market.

In the first half of 2023 compared to the same period of 2022, sales increased across our markets due to recovering demand. Sales increased $24 million for our industrial automation programs, $5 million in our medical market and $1 million in our simulation and test market. Additionally, sales increased $3 million in our energy market excluding the lost sales associated with our divested business.

Operating margin increased in the second quarter of 2023 compared to the second quarter of 2022. The second quarter of 2023 included $1 million of restructuring and other adjustments, while the second quarter of 2022 included a total of $4 million of impairment and restructuring charges. Excluding these items, adjusted operating margin for the second quarter of 2023 was 10.4% compared to 10.5% in the second quarter of 2022. Charges related to operations across various programs decreased margins. However, these were mostly offset by incremental margin from higher sales.

Operating margin in the first half of 2023 included a $10 million gain related to the sales of three buildings as we consolidated operations. Excluding this gain and the other charges in the second quarter, adjusted operating margin in the first half of 2023 was 11.3%. Adjusted operating margin in the first half of 2022 was 9.3% after excluding $4 million of similar charges. The resulting increase in adjusted operating margin was driven by the incremental margin from higher sales volumes.

Total Company – We expect higher sales in 2023, driven by both the continued recoveries in commercial aircraft and industrial markets, as well as higher demand for space and defense programs. Excluding the lost sales associated with our divestitures in 2022, and the weaker foreign currencies through the first half of 2023, we expect our sales growth to be 7%. We expect operating margin will increase due to the incremental sales volumes, combined with lower amounts of charges related to restructuring and impairments. Excluding these charges, we expect adjusted operating margin will increase to 11.0%, from an adjusted operating margin in 2022 of 10.2%. Net earnings in 2023 are expected to benefit from the incremental operating margin, which we expect to be partially offset by higher interest expense due to higher interest rates. We expect adjusted diluted earnings per share will range between $5.50 and $5.90, with a midpoint of $5.70. Management believes that the adjusted outlook may be useful in evaluating the financial condition and results of operations of the Company.

Aircraft Controls – In 2023, we anticipate sales increases across all of our major commercial OEM programs as the commercial aircraft market recovers and as our customers match the increasing air travel demand with increased orders. However, in our military programs, we anticipate a sales decrease primarily driven by our military aftermarket programs. We expect operating margin in 2023 will increase slightly due to improved factory utilization from the higher sales volume, mostly offset by an unfavorable sales mix.

Space and Defense Controls – In 2023, we anticipate sales increases in our space programs from the higher activity on integrated space vehicle programs and for our satellite programs. Excluding the impact of lost sales associated with our divested security business, we expect sales increases across our defense programs, primarily driven by the continued production ramp of our RIwP program. We expect operating margin will increase in 2023 resulting from the incremental margin from higher sales volume and from the absence of charges from our security business sale. Partially offsetting the increases are the charges associated with our space vehicle programs in the first half of 2023.

Industrial Systems – In 2023, we anticipate sales increases across our markets due to recovering demand and our growing backlog. We expect operating margin will increase in 2023 resulting from the gain associated with the sale of buildings and due to lower amounts of charges related to impairments and restructuring. Excluding these charges, we expect adjusted operating margin to increase due to the incremental margin from higher sales volume, and from the benefits of our portfolio shaping and pricing activities.

Financing activities	92		(110)		202

Operating activities

Net cash was used by operating activities in the first half of 2023 compared to providing cash in the first half of 2022. Inventory used $79 million more cash as all of our segments experienced supply chain constraints preventing the release of products. We continue to strategically purchase materials ahead of requirements to reduce the risk of shipment delays. Accounts receivable used $72 million more cash, as last year included a $100 million benefit from the RPA program. Additionally, customer advances generated $43 million less cash due to the work-down of defense program milestones, primarily in our Space and Defense Controls segment.

We expect cash from operations in 2023 to be $165 million, a decrease compared to 2022, primarily due to the impact of the RPA transactions in the previous year.

Investing activities

Net cash used by investing activities in the first half of 2023 included $90 million of capital expenditures, including a $28 million building purchase, as we continue to prioritize internal investments to support core business growth. The first half of 2023 also included $20 million of proceeds from the sales of buildings and businesses.

Net cash used by investing activities in the first half of 2022 included $74 million for capital expenditures. Also, the first half of 2022 included $12 million for the acquisition of TEAM Accessories. These cash outflows were partially offset by the proceeds from the sale of a business.

We expect capital expenditures in 2023 to be $165 million, as we continue to invest in facilities and infrastructure to support future growth and operational improvements.

Financing activities

Net cash provided by financing activities in the first half of 2023 included $122 million of net borrowings on our credit facilities. Additionally, financing activities used $17 million of cash for dividend payments and $8 million for share repurchases.

Net cash used by financing activities in the first half of 2022 included $72 million of net payments on our credit facilities. Additionally, financing activities in the first half of 2022 included $17 million of share repurchases and $16 million of cash dividends.

Table of Contents

General

Cash flows from our operations, together with our various financing arrangements, fund on-going activities, debt service requirements, organic growth, acquisition opportunities and the ability to return capital to shareholders. We believe these sources of funding will be sufficient to meet our cash requirements for the next 12 months and for the foreseeable future thereafter.

At April 1, 2023, our cash balances were $110 million, which includes $99 million held outside of the U.S. by foreign operations. We regularly assess our cash needs, including repatriation of foreign earnings which may be subject to regulatory approvals and withholding taxes, where applicable by law.

Financing Arrangements

In addition to operations, our capital resources include bank credit facilities and an accounts receivable financing program to fund our short and long-term capital requirements. We continuously evaluate various forms of financing to improve our liquidity and position ourselves for future opportunities, which from time to time, may result in selling debt and equity securities to fund acquisitions or take advantage of favorable market conditions.

We are generally not required to obtain the consent of lenders of the U.S. revolving credit facility before raising significant additional debt financing; however, certain limitations and conditions may apply that would require consent to be obtained. We have demonstrated our ability to secure consents to access debt markets. We have also been successful in accessing equity markets from time to time. We believe that we will be able to obtain additional debt or equity financing as needed.

In the normal course of business, we are exposed to interest rate risk from our long-term debt. To manage these risks, we may enter into derivative instruments such as interest rate swaps which are used to adjust the proportion of total debt that is subject to variable and fixed interest rates.

Our U.S. revolving credit facility, which matures on October 27, 2027, has a capacity of $1.1 billion and also provides an expansion option, which permits us to request an increase of up to $400 million to the credit facility upon satisfaction of certain conditions. The weighted-average interest rate on the majority of the outstanding credit facility borrowings was 6.08% and is principally based on SOFR plus the applicable margin, which was 1.60% at April 1, 2023.

The U.S. revolving credit facility contains various covenants. The minimum for the interest coverage ratio, defined as the ratio of EBITDA to interest expense for the most recent four quarters, is 3.0. The maximum for the leverage ratio, defined as the ratio of net debt to EBITDA for the most recent four quarters, is 4.0. EBITDA is defined in the loan agreement as (i) the sum of net income, interest expense, income taxes, depreciation expense, amortization expense, other non-cash items reducing consolidated net income and non-cash equity-based compensation expenses minus (ii) other non-cash items increasing consolidated net income.

The SECT has a revolving credit facility with a borrowing capacity of $35 million, maturing on July 26, 2024. Interest was 6.88% as of April 1, 2023 and is based on LIBOR plus a margin of 2.13%.

We have $500 million aggregate principal amount of 4.25% senior notes due December 15, 2027 with interest paid semiannually on June 15 and December 15 of each year. The senior notes are unsecured obligations, guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by certain subsidiaries and contain normal incurrence-based covenants and limitations such as the ability to incur additional indebtedness, pay dividends, make other restricted payments and investments, create liens and certain corporate acts such as mergers and consolidations.

Our Receivables Purchase Agreement, which matures on November 4, 2024, allows the Receivables Subsidiary to sell receivables to the Purchasers in amounts up to a $100 million limit so long as certain conditions are satisfied. The receivables are sold to the Purchasers in consideration for the Purchasers making payments of cash. Each Purchaser’s share of capital accrues yield at a variable rate plus an applicable margin, which totaled 5.76% as of April 1, 2023.

At April 1, 2023, we had $663 million of unused capacity, including $645 million from the U.S. revolving credit facility after considering standby letters of credit. Our leverage ratio covenant limits our ability to increase net debt by $591 million as of April 1, 2023.

We are in compliance with all covenants under each of our financing arrangements.

ECONOMIC CONDITIONS AND MARKET TRENDS

We operate within the aerospace and defense and industrial markets. Our businesses are facing varying levels of supply chain pressures from the residual impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic.

Our aerospace and defense businesses represented 70% of our 2022 sales. Within the defense market, our programs are directly affected by funding levels, which has recently increased. Our commercial aircraft market, which represented less than 18% of our 2022 sales, is still recovering from the initial, dramatic, reductions in air travel at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic. While domestic travel has recovered, global international travel remains below pre-pandemic levels.

Within our industrial markets, which represented 30% of our 2022 sales, our programs benefited from increased order demand within industrial automation, simulation and test and energy markets. However, as customer demand increases, across these markets, we are now experiencing supply chain pressures.

A common factor throughout our markets is the continuing demand for technologically advanced products.

Aerospace and Defense

Within aerospace and defense, we serve three end markets: defense, commercial aircraft and space.

The defense market is dependent on military spending for development and production programs. We have a growing development program order book for future generation aircraft and hypersonic missiles, and we strive to embed our technologies within these high-performance military programs of the future. Aircraft production programs are typically long-term in nature, offering predictable capacity needs and future revenues. We maintain positions on numerous high priority programs, including the Lockheed Martin F-35 Lightning II and V-22 Osprey. The large installed base of our products leads to attractive aftermarket sales and service opportunities. The tactical and strategic missile, missile defense and defense controls markets are dependent on many of the same market conditions as military aircraft, including overall military spending and program funding levels. At times when there are perceived threats to national security, U.S. defense spending can increase; at other times, defense spending can decrease. Future levels of defense spending have increased in the near-term given the current global tensions, and are subject to presidential and congressional approval.

The commercial OEM aircraft market has depended on a number of factors, including both the last decade's increasing global demand for air travel and increasing fuel prices. Both factors contributed to the demand for new, more fuel-efficient aircraft with lower operating costs that led to large production backlogs for Boeing and Airbus. While domestic air travel has recovered from the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, international travel utilizing wide-body aircraft continues to be a longer recovery period. We believe Boeing and Airbus will continue to directionally match their wide-body aircraft production rates with the post-pandemic air traffic volumes, which affects our demand for our flight control systems.

The commercial aftermarket is driven by usage and the age of the existing aircraft fleet for passenger and cargo aircraft, which drives the need for maintenance and repairs. While there were initial dramatic reductions in flight hours at the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic, we have seen a recovery in the demand volume for our maintenance services and spare parts.

The space market is comprised of four customer markets: the civil market, the U.S. Department of Defense market, the commercial space market and the new space market. The civil market, namely NASA, is driven by investment for commercial and exploration activities, including NASA's return to the moon. The U.S. Department of Defense market is driven by governmental-authorized levels of defense spending, including funding for hypersonic defense technologies. Levels of U.S. defense spending could increase as there is growing emphasis on space as the next frontier of potential future conflicts. The commercial space market is comprised of large satellite customers, which traditionally sell to communications companies. Trends for this market, as well as for commercial launch vehicles, follow demand for increased capacity. This, in turn tends to track with underlying demand for increased consumption of telecommunication services, satellite replacements and global navigation needs. The new space market is driven by investments to increase the speed and access to space through smaller satellites at reduced cost.

Industrial

Within industrial, we serve two end markets: industrial and medical.The industrial market consists of industrial automation products, simulation and test products and energy generation and exploration products. The medical market consists of medical devices and medical components products.

The industrial market we serve with our industrial automation products is influenced by several factors including capital investment levels, the pace of product innovation, economic conditions, cost-reduction efforts, technology upgrades and the subsequent effects of the COVID-19 pandemic. As our industrial market continues to recover, ongoing supply chain constraints continue to impact our operations, as will potential future economic recessions.

Our simulation and test products operate in markets that were largely affected by the same factors and investment challenges stemming from the COVID-19 pandemic. However, we have seen stronger order demand for flight simulation systems as the airline training market recovers.

Our energy generation and exploration products operate in a market that is influenced by changing oil and natural gas prices, global urbanization and the resulting change in supply and demand for global energy. Historically, drivers for global growth include investments in power generation infrastructure and exploration of new oil and gas resources. Recently, we have seen oil prices rise above pre-pandemic levels due, in part, to global disruptions; but future energy crises could increase the market's uncertainty.

The medical market we serve, in general, is influenced by economic conditions, regulatory environments, hospital and outpatient clinic spending on equipment, population demographics, medical advances, patient demands and the need for precision control components and systems. When the COVID-19 pandemic altered the way hospitals provided care by asking non-critical patients to recuperate at home, our medical devices products saw an increase in orders. This surge in demand has waned, as our customers have resized their inventory levels.

Foreign Currencies

We are affected by the movement of foreign currencies compared to the U.S. dollar, particularly in Aircraft Controls and Industrial Systems. About one-fifth of our 2022 sales were denominated in foreign currencies. During the first six months of 2023, average foreign currency rates generally weakened against the U.S. dollar compared to 2022. The translation of the results of our foreign subsidiaries into U.S. dollars decreased sales by $26 million compared to the same period one year ago.

In evaluating these forward-looking statements, you should carefully consider the factors set forth below.

Although it is not possible to create a comprehensive list of all factors that may cause actual results to differ from the results expressed or implied by our forward-looking statements or that may affect our future results, some of these factors and other risks and uncertainties that arise from time to time are described in Item 1A “Risk Factors” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K and in our other periodic filings with the SEC and include the following:

STRATEGIC RISKS

▪ We operate in highly competitive markets with competitors who may have greater resources than we possess;

▪ Our research and development and innovation efforts are substantial and may not be successful, which could reduce our sales and earnings;

▪ If we are unable to adequately enforce and protect our intellectual property or defend against assertions of infringement, our business and our ability to compete could be harmed; and

▪ Our sales and earnings may be affected if we cannot identify, acquire or integrate strategic acquisitions, or as we conduct divestitures.

MARKET CONDITION RISKS

▪ The markets we serve are cyclical and sensitive to domestic and foreign economic conditions and events, which may cause our operating results to fluctuate;

▪ We depend heavily on government contracts that may not be fully funded or may be terminated, and the failure to receive funding or the termination of one or more of these contracts could reduce our sales and increase our costs;

▪ The loss of The Boeing Company or Lockheed Martin as a customer or a significant reduction in sales to either company could adversely impact our operating results; and

▪ We may not realize the full amounts reflected in our backlog as revenue, which could adversely affect our future revenue and growth prospects.

OPERATIONAL RISKS

▪ A reduced supply, as well as inflated prices, across various raw materials and third-party provided components and sub-assemblies within our supply chain could have a material impact on our ability to manufacture and ship our products, in addition to adversely impacting our operating profit and balance sheet;

▪ We face various risks related to health pandemics, such as the COVID-19 pandemic, which have had material adverse consequences on our operations, financial position, cash flows, and those of our customers and suppliers;

▪ If our subcontractors or suppliers fail to perform their contractual obligations, our prime contract performance and our ability to obtain future business could be materially and adversely impacted;

▪ We face, and may continue to face, risks related to information systems interruptions, intrusions or new software implementations, which may adversely affect our business operations;

▪ We may not be able to prevent, or timely detect, issues with our products and our manufacturing processes, which may adversely affect our operations and our earnings; and

▪ The failure or misuse of our products may damage our reputation, necessitate a product recall or result in claims against us that exceed our insurance coverage, thereby requiring us to pay significant damages.

FINANCIAL RISKS

▪ We make estimates in accounting for over-time contracts, and changes in these estimates may have significant impacts on our earnings;

▪ We enter into fixed-price contracts, which could subject us to losses if we have cost overruns;

▪ Our indebtedness and restrictive covenants under our credit facilities and indenture governing our senior notes could limit our operational and financial flexibility;

▪ Significant changes in discount rates, rates of return on pension assets, mortality tables and other factors could adversely affect our earnings and equity and increase our pension funding requirements;

▪ A write-off of all or part of our goodwill or other intangible assets could adversely affect our operating results and net worth; and

▪ Unforeseen exposure to additional income tax liabilities may affect our operating results.

LEGAL AND COMPLIANCE RISKS

▪ Contracting on government programs is subject to significant regulation, including rules related to bidding, billing and accounting standards, and any false claims or non-compliance could subject us to fines, penalties or possible debarment;

▪ Our operations in foreign countries expose us to currency, political and trade risks and adverse changes in local legal and regulatory environments could impact our results of operations;

▪ Government regulations could limit our ability to sell our products outside the United States and otherwise adversely affect our business;

▪ We are involved in various legal proceedings, the outcome of which may be unfavorable to us;

▪ Our operations are subject to environmental laws and complying with those laws may cause us to incur significant costs; and

▪ We may face reputational, regulatory or financial risks from a perceived, or an actual, failure to achieve our sustainability goals.

GENERAL RISKS

▪ Future terror attacks, war, natural disasters or other catastrophic events beyond our control could negatively impact our business; and

▪ Our performance could suffer if we cannot maintain our culture as well as attract, retain and engage our employees.
