NOTE 1 – BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Basis of Financial Statement Presentation

The accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”) for interim financial information, and with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) regarding interim financial reporting. Accordingly, these interim consolidated financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by US GAAP for complete financial statements. In the opinion of the management of the Company, as defined below, these unaudited consolidated financial statements include all normal, recurring adjustments necessary to present fairly the information set forth therein. Results for interim periods are not necessarily indicative of results to be expected for a full year.

The consolidated balance sheet information as of December 31, 2021, was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 ("2021 Form 10-K”). The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein should be read in conjunction with the 2021 Form 10-K.

The consolidated financial statements have been reported in U.S. dollars by translating asset and liability amounts of a foreign wholly-owned subsidiary at the closing exchange rate, equity amounts at historical rates and the results of operations and cash flow at the average of the prevailing exchange rates during the periods reported. As a result, the Company is exposed to foreign currency translation gains or losses. These gains or losses are presented in the Company’s consolidated financial statements as “Other comprehensive income (loss) - foreign currency translation adjustment.”

Principles of Consolidation

The unaudited consolidated financial statements contained herein include the accounts of P&F Industries, Inc., and its subsidiaries (“P&F” or the “Company”). All significant intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated.

The Company

P&F, a Delaware corporation incorporated in 1963, conducts its business through a wholly-owned subsidiary, Continental Tool Group, Inc. (“Continental”), which in turn operates through its wholly-owned subsidiaries, Florida Pneumatic Manufacturing Corporation (“Florida Pneumatic”) and Hy-Tech Machine, Inc. (“Hy-Tech”).

Florida Pneumatic

Florida Pneumatic directly, and through its wholly-owned subsidiaries Exhaust Technologies Inc. (“ETI”), Universal Air Tool Company Limited (“UAT”), and Jiffy Air Tool, Inc. (“Jiffy”) imports, manufactures, and markets pneumatic hand tools of its own design, primarily to the retail, industrial, automotive and aerospace markets. Its products include sanders, grinders, drills, saws, and impact wrenches. These tools are similar in appearance and function to electric hand tools, but are powered by compressed air, rather than by electricity or a battery. Air tools, as they are more commonly referred to, generally offer better performance, and weigh less than their electrical counterparts. Florida Pneumatic imports and/or manufactures approximately 75 types of pneumatic hand tools, most of which are sold at prices ranging from $50 to $1,000, under the names “Florida Pneumatic,” “Universal Tool”, “Jiffy Air Tool”, AIRCAT, NITROCAT, as well as under the trade names or trademarks of several private label customers. These products are sold to retailers, distributors, manufacturers and private label customers through in-house sales personnel and manufacturers’ representatives. The AIRCAT and NITROCAT brands of pneumatic tools are sold primarily to the automotive service and repair market (“automotive market”). Users of Florida Pneumatic’s hand tools include industrial maintenance and production staffs, do-it-yourself mechanics, professional automobile mechanics and auto body personnel. Jiffy manufactures and distributes pneumatic tools and components primarily to aerospace manufacturers.

The Company - Continued

Hy-Tech

Hy-Tech designs, manufactures, and markets industrial tools, systems, gearing, accessories, and a wide variety of replacement parts under various brands including ATP, NUMATX, and Thaxton. Hy-Tech produces and sells heavy-duty pneumatic impact tools, grinders, air motors, hydro-pneumatic riveters, hydrostatic test plugs, impact sockets and custom gears, with prices ranging from $300 to $42,000.

Hy-Tech’s “Engineered Solutions” products are sold directly to Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEM’s”), and industrial branded products are sold through a broad network of specialized industrial distributors serving the power generation, petrochemical, aerospace, construction, railroad, mining, ship building and fabricated metals industries, among others. Hy-Tech works directly with its industrial customers, designing and manufacturing products from finished components to complete turnkey systems to be sold under their own brand names.

Hy-Tech’s “Power Transmission Group", commonly referred to as "PTG", produces spiral bevel and straight bevel gears along with a wide variety of other gearing. These products are sold direct to OEMs, end-users and gearbox repair companies. PTG works directly with its customer's engineering departments to design or redesign gears or gearboxes to optimize a solution for functionality and manufacturability.

Nearly all of Hy-Tech brands are manufactured in the United States of America. Hy-Tech markets ATP branded impact sockets, striking wrenches and accessories that are imported from Italy and Asia.

COVID-19

On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization designated the recent novel coronavirus, or COVID-19, as a global pandemic. COVID-19 was first detected in Wuhan City, Hubei Province, China and continued to spread, significantly impacting various markets around the world, including the United States. Various policies and initiatives have been implemented to reduce the global transmission of COVID-19.

The COVID-19 virus and the resultant global economic down-turn had a negative impact on our fiscal 2021 results and continues to negatively impact the Company during the first quarter of 2022. Additionally, we believe the on-going supply-chain crisis is related to a large degree to the pandemic. Beginning in early 2021, and worsening during the latter half of 2021, we encountered severe shipping / receiving delays of inventory / containers from our Asian suppliers, which has caused intermittent shortages of inventory. Further, the Company believes the COVID-19 global pandemic has been and continues to be the primary factor in the exorbitant increases in the cost of international ocean freight. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused many of the Company's customers and potential customers to refuse or delay on-site visits, which is critical to generating revenue. The Company believes that until the above issues subside, its business will likely continue to be adversely affected.

NOTE 1 – BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued)

Going Concern Assessment

Management assesses going concern uncertainty to determine whether there is sufficient cash on hand and working capital, including available borrowings on loans, to operate for a period of at least one year from the date the consolidated financial statements are issued, which is referred to as the “look-forward period,” as defined in US GAAP. As part of this assessment, based on conditions that are known and reasonably knowable to management, it considers various scenarios, forecasts, projections, estimates and makes certain key assumptions, including the timing and nature of projected cash expenditures, its ability to reduce, delay or curtail cash outflows and its ability to raise additional capital, if necessary, among other factors. Management has prepared estimates of operations covering the look-forward period and believes that sufficient funds will be generated from operations, working capital, and its existing credit facility to fund its operations. The Company has contingency plans in which it would further reduce or defer additional expenses and cash outlays, should operations weaken beyond current forecasts.

The impact of COVID-19 on the Company’s business has been considered in these assumptions; however, it is unclear what the full impact of COVID-19 will be in the future or when the Company believes a return to more normal operations may occur.

The accompanying consolidated financial statements have been prepared on a going concern basis under which the Company is expected to be able to realize its assets and satisfy its liabilities in the normal course of business.

Customer Concentration

The Company had one customer that accounted for 30.6% and 36.8% of its consolidated accounts receivable at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Further, this customer accounted for 21.5% and 27.2% of the Company’s consolidated revenue during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, respectively. There was no other customer that accounted for more than 10% of our consolidated revenue during these three -month periods.

Management Estimates

The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with US GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses in those financial statements. Certain significant accounting policies that contain subjective management estimates and assumptions include those related to revenue recognition, inventory, goodwill, intangible assets and other long-lived assets, contingent consideration, income taxes and deferred taxes. Descriptions of these policies are discussed in the Company’s 2021 Form 10-K. Management evaluates its estimates and assumptions on an ongoing basis using historical experience and other factors, including the current economic environment, and adjusts when facts and circumstances dictate. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Significant changes, if any, in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.

Significant Accounting Policies

The Company’s significant accounting policies are described in “Note 1: Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our 2021 Form 10-K.

NOTE 1 - BUSINESS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES - (Continued)

Lease Accounting

The Company adheres to the standards set forth in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, “Leases”. ASC Topic 842 retains a distinction between finance leases and operating leases. The classification criteria for distinguishing between finance leases and operating leases are substantially similar to the classification criteria for distinguishing between capital leases and operating leases in the previous leases’ guidance.

If the rate implicit in the lease is not readily determinable, the Company uses its incremental borrowing rate as the discount rate. The Company uses its best judgement when determining the incremental borrowing rate, which is the rate of interest that the Company would have to pay to borrow on a collateralized basis over a similar term to the lease payments in a similar currency.

The Company’s operating leases include vehicles, office space and the use of real property. The Company has not identified any new material finance leases during the three -month period ended March 31, 2022.

The Company considers any options to extend the term of a lease when measuring the Right-of-Use lease asset.

For the three -month periods ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, the Company had $232,000 and $224,000, respectively, in operating lease expense.

Effective March 1, 2022, the Company and the landlord of the facility located in Punxsutawney, PA. agreed to modify the lease related to the approximate 42,000 square foot premises that was leased by Hy-Tech. This lease modification among other things, increased the rented space to approximately 62,000 square feet, extended the lease termination date to February 2027, and provided two three-year options to renew. The cost per square foot for the additional space was equal to that of the original lease.

The following is a maturity analysis of the annual undiscounted cash flows reconciled to the carrying value of the operating lease liabilities as of March 31, 2022:

NOTE 2 - ACQUISITION

Effective January 15, 2022, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hy-Tech, the Company acquired (the "Acquisition") substantially all the non-real estate assets comprising the business of Jackson Gear Company ("JGC"), a Pennsylvania-based corporation that manufactures and distributes custom gears and power transmission gear products. The purchase price consisted of an aggregate of approximately $2.3 million in cash, which was funded by Revolver (as defined in Note 8) borrowings, and the assumption of certain payables. The Company has incorporated this business into its PTG business and believes that the Acquisition will provide added market exposure into the market for larger gears.

In connection with the Acquisition, the Company entered into the Consent, Joinder and Amendment No. 9 ("Amendment No. 9") to the Second Amended and Restated Loan and Security Agreement (the "Credit Agreement"), with Capital One, National Association. Amendment No. 9, among other things, provided consent to the Acquisition.


	Total
Total purchase price	$	2,300,000

The following table presents preliminary purchase price allocation:


Accounts receivable	$	490,000
Inventories		369,000
Machinery and equipment		823,000
Goodwill		833,000
Liabilities assumed		(215,000)
Total estimated purchase price	$	2,300,000

The excess of the total purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired is currently being presented as goodwill. The Company has not yet determined the fair value of the identifiable intangible assets. When finalized, any goodwill will be amortized over 15 years for tax purposes, but not deductible for financial reporting purposes. Any identifiable intangible assets subject to amortization will be amortized over 15 years for tax purposes.

The following unaudited pro-forma combined financial information gives effect to the Acquisition as if the transaction was consummated on January 1, 2021. This unaudited pro-forma financial information is presented for information purposes only and is not intended to present actual results that would have been attained had the Acquisition been completed as of January 1, 2021 (the beginning of the earliest period presented) or to project potential operating results as of any future date or for any future periods.

NOTE 3 - LOSS PER SHARE

Basic loss per common share is based only on the weighted average number of shares of Common Stock outstanding for the periods. Diluted loss per common share reflects the effect of shares of Common Stock issuable upon the exercise of options unless the effect on earnings is anti-dilutive.

Diluted loss per common share is computed using the treasury stock method. Under this method, the aggregate number of shares of Common Stock outstanding reflects the assumed use of proceeds from the hypothetical exercise of any outstanding options to purchase shares of Common Stock. The average market value for the period is used as the assumed purchase price.

The following table sets forth the elements of basic and diluted loss per common share:


	Three months ended
	March 31,
	2022		2021
Numerator for basic and diluted loss per common share:
Net loss	$	(618,000)	$	(307,000)

Denominator:

Dilutive securities (1)		—		—
Denominator for diluted loss per share - weighted average common shares outstanding		3,169,000		3,169,000

(1)Dilutive securities consist of the “in the money” stock options. In the event of a loss, options are considered anti-dilutive and are therefore not included in the calculation of diluted loss per share.

At March 31, 2022, and 2021, there were outstanding stock options whose exercise prices were higher than the average market values of the underlying Common Stock for the period. The weighted average of anti-dilutive stock options outstanding was as follows:


	Three months ended

NOTE 5 – FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

Accounting guidance defines fair value 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. Under this guidance, the Company is required to classify certain assets and liabilities based on the following hierarchy:

Level 1: Quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in active markets that can be assessed at the measurement date.

Level 2: Inputs other than quoted prices included in Level 1, such as quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets; quoted prices for identical or similar assets and liabilities in markets that are not active; or other inputs that are observable or can be corroborated by observable market data.

Level 3: Inputs reflect management’s best estimate of what market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability at the measurement date. The inputs are unobservable in the market and significant to the instrument’s valuation.

The guidance requires the use of observable market data if such data is available without undue cost and effort.

As of March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, the carrying amounts reflected in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets for current assets and current liabilities approximated fair value due to the short-term nature of these accounts.

Assets and liabilities measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis include goodwill and intangible assets. Such assets are reviewed quarterly for impairment indicators. If a triggering event has occurred, the assets are re-measured when the estimated fair value of the corresponding asset group is less than the carrying value. The fair value measurements, in such instances, are based on significant unobservable inputs (Level 3).

NOTE 6 – ACCOUNTS RECEIVABLE AND ALLOWANCE FOR DOUBTFUL ACCOUNTS

Accounts receivable - net consists of:


	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021

	$	27,548,000	$	24,021,000

Inventory increased to $27,548,000 at March 31, 2022, from $24,021,000 at December 31, 2021. This increase, most of which took place at Florida Pneumatic, was due primarily to two factors; to increase safety stock levels, and to fulfill a large retail order that was received in late 2021 that is scheduled to ship during the second quarter of 2022.

NOTE 9 – DEBT

In October 2010, the Company entered into a Loan and Security Agreement (“Credit Agreement”) with an affiliate of Capital One, National Association (“Capital One” or the “Bank”). The Credit Agreement, as amended and restated in April 2017 and further amended from time-to-time, among other things, provides the ability to borrow funds under a $16,000,000 revolver line (“Revolver”), subject to certain borrowing base criteria. Additionally, there is a $2,000,000 line of credit for capital expenditures (“Capex Loan”), with $1,600,000 available for future borrowings. Revolver and Capex Loan borrowings are secured by the Company’s accounts receivable, inventory, equipment, and real property, among other things. P&F and certain of its subsidiaries are borrowers under the Credit Agreement, and their obligations are cross guaranteed by certain other subsidiaries. The Credit Agreement expires on February 8, 2024.

On April 12, 2022, we entered into Amendment No. 10 ("Amendment No. 10") to the Credit Agreement.

The substantive matters included in Amendment No. 10 include:

●

Increasing the Revolving Commitment by $2,000,000, to $18,000,000 until June 30, 2022.

●

Removing a $10,000,000 cap on inventory availability through June 30, 2022.

●

Prohibiting any Capex Loans through June 30, 2022.

●

Implementing Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR") as the new benchmark interest rate immediately, in lieu of LIBOR.

Until the effective date of Amendment No. 10, at the Company’s option, Revolver borrowings would bear interest at either LIBOR or the Base Rate, as the terms are defined in the Credit Agreement, plus an Applicable Margin, as defined in the Credit Agreement. Additionally, the Company was subject to limitations on the number of LIBOR borrowings. As noted above, Amendment No. 10, the Company would be required to use SOFR rates instead of LIBOR. The Company will continue to be subject to the number of SOFR borrowings. The Company does not believe that this change from LIBOR to SOFR will have a significant effect on its consolidated financial statements.

The Company provides Capital One with monthly borrowing base certificates, and in certain circumstances, it is required to deliver monthly financial statements and certificates of compliance with various financial covenants. Should an event of default occur the interest rate would increase by two percent per annum during the period of default, in addition to other remedies provided to Capital One.

At March 31, 2022, short-term or Revolver borrowing was $12,522,000, compared to $5,765,000 at December 31, 2021. (See Note 2, for further discussion related to this increase. Applicable Margin Rates at March 31, 2022 were 1.50% and 0.50%, respectively for LIBOR and Base Rate borrowings. At December 31, 2021, these rates were 1.50% and 0.50%, respectively for LIBOR and Base Rate borrowings. Additionally, at March 31, 2022, and December 31, 2021, there was approximately $3,360,000 and $9,578,000, respectively, available to the Company under its Revolver arrangement.

The average balances of short-term borrowings from our Bank for the three -month periods ended March 31, 2022 and 2021, were $10,157,000 and $2,167,000, respectively.

Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations - Continued

OVERVIEW

During the first quarter of 2022, significant factors that impacted our results of operations were the:

●

Ongoing negative impact of the COVID-19 pandemic on revenue, income, and supply chain;

●

Ongoing production slow-down by Boeing of its 737 MAX aircraft, as well as significant reductions in activity at other commercial and military aerospace manufacturing facilities; and

●

The acquisition of the Jackson Gear Company business.

OUR BUSINESS

Florida Pneumatic

Florida Pneumatic directly, and through its wholly-owned subsidiaries Exhaust Technologies Inc. (“ETI”), Universal Air Tool Company Limited (“UAT”), and Jiffy Air Tool, Inc. (“Jiffy”) imports, manufactures, and markets pneumatic hand tools of its own design, primarily to the retail, industrial, automotive, and aerospace markets. Its products include sanders, grinders, drills, saws, and impact wrenches. These tools are similar in appearance and function to electric hand tools, but are powered by compressed air, rather than by electricity or a battery. Air tools, as they are more commonly referred to, generally offer better performance, and weigh less than their electrical counterparts. Florida Pneumatic imports and/or manufactures approximately 75 types of pneumatic hand tools, most of which are sold at prices ranging from $50 to $1,000, under the names “Florida Pneumatic,” “Universal Tool”, “Jiffy Air Tool”, AIRCAT, NITROCAT, as well as under the trade names or trademarks of several private label customers. These products are sold to retailers, distributors, manufacturers and private label customers through in-house sales personnel and manufacturers’ representatives. The AIRCAT and NITROCAT brands of pneumatic tools are sold primarily to the automotive service and repair market (“automotive market”). Users of Florida Pneumatic’s hand tools include industrial maintenance and production staffs, do-it-yourself mechanics, professional automobile mechanics and auto body personnel. Jiffy manufactures and distributes pneumatic tools and components primarily to aerospace manufacturers.

Hy-Tech

Hy-Tech designs, manufactures, and markets industrial tools, systems, gearing, accessories and a wide variety of replacement parts under various brands including ATP, NUMATX, and Thaxton. Hy-Tech produces and sells heavy-duty pneumatic impact tools, grinders, air motors, hydro-pneumatic riveters, hydrostatic test plugs, impact sockets and custom gears, with prices ranging from $300 to $42,000.

Hy-Tech’s “Engineered Solutions” products are sold directly to Original Equipment Manufacturers (“OEM’s”), and industrial branded products are sold through a broad network of specialized industrial distributors serving the power generation, petrochemical, aerospace, construction, railroad, mining, ship building and fabricated metals industries. Hy-Tech works directly with its industrial customers, designing and manufacturing products from finished components to complete turnkey systems to be sold under their own brand names.

Hy-Tech’s Power Transmission Group, or PTG, is a custom gear, gearbox and power transmission system manufacturer located in Punxsutawney, PA. In addition to manufacturing a broad range of standard and custom gears for manufacturers in a wide variety of industries, PTG reverse engineers existing gears as well as designs new gears, utilizing state-of-the-art technologies, including 3D imaging and Gleason Gear modeling software.

Effective January 15, 2022, through a wholly-owned subsidiary of Hy-Tech, we acquired substantially all the non-real estate assets comprising the business of Jackson Gear Company ("JGC"), a Pennsylvania-based corporation that manufactures and distributes custom gears and power transmission gear products. (See Note -2 for additional information). This business was consolidated into PTG. We believe this acquisition will provide added market exposure into the larger gears market.

ECONOMIC MEASURES

Much of our business is driven by the ebbs and flows of the general economic conditions in both the United States and, to a lesser extent, abroad. We focus on a wide array of customer types including, but not limited to, large retailers, aerospace manufacturers, large and small resellers of pneumatic tools and parts, and automotive related customers. We tend to track the general economic conditions of the United States, industrial production, and general retail sales.

A key economic measure relevant to us is the cost of the raw materials in our products. Key materials include metals, especially various types of steel and aluminum. Also important is the value of the United States Dollar (“USD”) in relation to the Taiwanese dollar (“TWD”), as we purchase a significant portion of our products from Taiwan. Purchases from Chinese sources are made in USD; however, if the Chinese currency, the Renminbi (“RMB”), were to be revalued against the USD, there could be a negative impact on the cost of our products. Additionally, we closely monitor the fluctuation in the Great British Pound (“GBP”) to the USD, and the GBP to TWD, both of which can have an impact on the consolidated results.

We consider tariffs a key economic measure, as a significant portion of products imported by Florida Pneumatic and to a lesser degree, Hy-Tech, are subject to these tariffs. Further, we monitor transportation costs, specifically ocean freight rates, which since early 2021 have become a key area.

Lastly, the cost and availability of a quality labor pool in the countries where products and components are manufactured, both overseas as well as in the United States, could materially affect our overall results.

OPERATING MEASURES

Key operating measures we use to manage our operations are orders; shipments; development of new products; customer retention; inventory levels and productivity. These measures are recorded and monitored at various intervals, including daily, weekly and monthly. To the extent these measures are relevant, they are discussed in the detailed sections below.

FINANCIAL MEASURES

Key financial measures we use to evaluate the results of our business include various revenue metrics; gross margin; selling, general and administrative expenses; earnings before interest and taxes; earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization; operating cash flows and capital expenditures; return on sales; return on assets; days’ sales outstanding and inventory turns. These measures are reviewed at monthly, quarterly and annual intervals and compared to historical periods as well as to established objectives. To the extent that these measures are relevant, they are discussed in detail below.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

We prepare our consolidated financial statements in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“US GAAP”). Descriptions of these policies are discussed in the 2021 Form 10-K, and in the notes to these consolidated financial statements. Certain of these accounting policies require us to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and the related disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities, revenues and expenses. On an ongoing basis, we evaluate estimates, including, but not limited to those related to bad debts, inventory reserves, goodwill and intangible assets, warranty reserves, taxes and deferred taxes. We base our estimates on historical data and experience, when available, and on various other assumptions that are believed to be reasonable under the circumstances, the combined results of which form the basis for making judgments about the carrying values of assets and liabilities that are not readily apparent from other sources. As future events and their effects cannot be determined with precision, actual results could differ significantly from those estimates and assumptions. Significant changes, if any, in those estimates resulting from continuing changes in the economic environment will be reflected in the consolidated financial statements in future periods.

TRENDS AND UNCERTAINTIES

COVID-19 PANDEMIC

The COVID-19 virus and the resultant global economic down-turn had a negative impact on our fiscal 2021 results and continues to negatively impact the Company during the first quarter of 2022. Additionally, we believe the on-going supply-chain crisis is related to a large degree to the pandemic. Beginning in early 2021, and worsening during the latter half of 2021, we encountered severe shipping / receiving delays of inventory / containers from our Asian suppliers, which has caused intermittent shortages of inventory. Further, we believe the COVID-19 global pandemic has been and continues to be the primary factor in the exorbitant increases in the cost of international ocean freight. In addition, the COVID-19 pandemic has caused many of our customers and potential customers to refuse on-site visits, which is critical to generating revenue. We believe that until the above issues subside, our business will likely continue to be adversely affected.

BOEING/AEROSPACE

The Federal Aviation Administration (“FAA”) and the European Union Aviation Safety Agency (“EASA”) have lifted the grounding of the 737 MAX, however, China, which is a large customer of Boeing, has not lifted the grounding on the 737 MAX aircraft. Boeing is currently holding completed 737 MAX aircraft destined for Chinese carriers. As a result of the aforementioned, and airline companies limiting deliveries of new aircraft, we believe production at Boeing of its 737 MAX aircraft is likely to remain below the production levels that existed prior to the onset of the COVID-19 pandemic and the grounding of certain aircraft.

Although the 787 Dreamliner is still in production, albeit at a reduced rate, we believe that Boeing has not been able to deliver a new aircraft to a customer for over 1 year. The FAA is in process of evaluating the manufacturing flaws and subsequent corrective actions put forth by Boeing, but a firm timeline for customer deliveries of new aircraft has not been announced.

Until these issues are fully resolved, we will likely continue to experience an adverse effect on our revenue for the foreseeable future. Additionally, production of military and other commercial aircraft throughout the industry has slowed as well, which we believe much is due to the ongoing global COVID-19 pandemic. However, we believe when all other commercial and military production lines throughout the United States come back online, an increase in our revenue should follow.

TRENDS AND UNCERTAINTIES - (Continued)

INTERNATIONAL SUPPLY CHAIN

Beginning in 2021, but magnified during the third and fourth quarters, we encountered severe delays in receiving inventory from our Asian suppliers, which led to intermittent shortages of inventory. Further, during this same period and continuing into 2022, ocean freight costs have greatly increased. This trend of higher costs and delayed deliveries has continued into 2022. We believe the major reasons for these issues include the following:

●

Increased price of fuel;

●

Shortage of shipping containers;

●

Congestion at the ports in Asia and the United States; and

●

Shortage of truck drivers in the United States.

At the present time, we believe the above-mentioned supply chain disruptions, along with increased freight and general domestic transportation costs will likely continue during the remainder of 2022. While we believe that most of these costs have been, or will be, passed on to our customers after the first quarter of 2022, there is no assurance that any additional cost increases can be passed on in the future.

INVENTORY GROWTH

Our inventory increased to $27,548,000 at March 31, 2022, from $24,021,000 at December 31, 2021. This increase, most of which took place at Florida Pneumatic, was due primarily to two factors; to increase safety stock levels, and inventory required to fulfill a large retail order that was received in late 2021 that is scheduled to ship during the second quarter of 2022.

We believe it was strategic to bolster our safety stock levels of imported products due to the significant delays we encountered during the latter portion of 2021 and early 2022, which in turn had resulted in “out of stock” positions on several key items. Lastly, it should be noted that inventory levels during fiscal 2020, were suppressed due primarily to supply chain issues and production levels being hampered by the pandemic. As such, a portion of the inventory increase was designed to raise our inventory at all locations to safer, pre-pandemic levels, in order to provide necessary inventory for growth.

TECHNOLOGIES

We believe that over time, several newer technologies and features will have a greater impact on the market for our traditional pneumatic tool offerings. The impact of this evolution has been felt initially by the advent of advanced cordless operated hand tools in the automotive aftermarket. We continue to analyze the practicality of developing or incorporating more advanced technologies in our tool platforms.

Other than the aforementioned, or matters that may be discussed below, there are no major trends or uncertainties that had, or we could have reasonably expected to have a material impact on our revenue, nor was there any unusual or infrequent event, transaction or any significant economic change that materially affected our results of operations.

Unless otherwise discussed elsewhere in the Management’s Discussion and Analysis, we believe that our relationships with our key customers and suppliers remain satisfactory.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

REVENUE

The tables below provide an analysis of our net revenue for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022, and 2021:

Consolidated

					Increase (decrease)
	2022		2021		$		%

Florida Pneumatic

Florida Pneumatic markets its air tool products to four primary sectors within the pneumatic tool market; Automotive, Retail, Aerospace and Industrial. It also generates revenue from its Berkley products line, as well as a line of air filters and other OEM parts (“Other”).


	Three months ended March 31,
	2022				2021				Increase (decrease)
			Percent of				Percent of

Total	$	10,281,000	100.0	%	$	10,901,000	100.0	%	$	(620,000)	(5.7)	%

When comparing the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, the most significant change in Florida Pneumatic's revenue occurred within its Retail sector. The fall-off was due primarily to reduced volume in the sale of "spray guns" during the first quarter of 2022, compared to the same period in 2021. We believe that The Home Depot's ("THD"s) purchase level of spray guns during the COVID-19 pandemic (2020 and 2021) were likely used by their customers to sanitize large areas. Accordingly, as the pandemic appears to have subsided somewhat, the need for this tool used to combat the virus has diminished. Additionally, THD discontinued eight items, which contributed to the decline in revenue. It should be noted that many of the discontinued items will be replaced with a "roll-out" scheduled to ship during the second quarter of 2022, consisting of six new items. Further, we believe revenue from the new six items should greatly offset the decline from the discontinued items. Although our Automotive revenue declined this quarter, compared to the same period in 2021, as the result in a change in a distribution channel strategy, the gross margin related to our Automotive revenue has increased. Aerospace revenue improved 16.3%, when comparing the first quarter of 2022 and 2021. This improvement was driven by an overall increase in demand throughout the sector.

Total	$	3,740,000	100.0	%	$	3,044,000	100.0	%	$	696,000	22.9	%

During the first quarter of 2022, Hy-Tech continued to see signs that the ill effects of the pandemic were beginning to ease. Customer orders for all of its major product lines improved when compared to the same three-month period a year ago. Its OEM product line growth was due in large part to a general rebound in the pneumatic tool sector, with increased shipments to two large customers. The growth in PTG revenue was due to the acquisition of the Jackson Gear Company business (“JGC”). (See Note – 2 for further discussion). Its added revenue was partially offset by a decline in orders from a large customer. The increase in Hy-Tech’s Other revenue was due to NUMATX growth.

GROSS MARGIN/PROFIT


	Three months ended March 31,						Increase
	2022			2021			Amount				%
Florida Pneumatic	$	3,949,000		$	4,200,000		$	(251,000)			(6.0)	%

As percent of respective revenue		32.2	%		33.2	%		(1.0)	%	pts

The minimal decline in Florida Pneumatic’s gross margin this quarter, compared to the same three-month period in the prior year was due primarily to product mix. Ocean freight costs continue to adversely affect our gross margin, particularly at Florida Pneumatic where we are still encountering container costs that are four to five times greater than a year ago. We are attempting to pass through most if not all of these increases; however, we may not be able to fully neutralize the negative effects.

The improvement in Hy-Tech’s gross margin is due primarily to its overall product/customer mix. However, its manufacturing overhead absorption at PTG suffered during the quarter, as we are in the process of integrating the Jackson Gear Company acquisition. We expect that the major integration items should be resolved during the second half of 2022 and thus improve gross margin as well.

SELLING, GENERAL AND ADMINISTRATIVE EXPENSES

Selling, general and administrative expenses (“SG&A”) include salaries and related costs, commissions, travel, administrative facilities costs, communications costs and promotional expenses for our direct sales and marketing staff, administrative and executive salaries and related benefits, legal, accounting, and other professional fees as well as general corporate overhead and certain engineering expenses.

During the first quarter of 2022, our SG&A was $5,173,000, compared to $4,991,000 incurred during the same three-month period in 2021. There were three significant factors contributing to the net increase. First, compensation expense increased $188,000. Compensation expense is comprised of base salaries and wages, accrued performance-based bonus incentives and associated payroll taxes and employee benefits. Several factors contributed to this increase, among them the staffing added in connection with the JGC acquisition, increased wages primarily related to retention incentives and annual wage adjustments and increases in companywide bonus/incentive/performance accruals. Secondly, professional fees and expenses increased $233,000, due primary to legal, accounting and other fees incurred in connection with the JGC acquisition. Other expenses that contributed to this $233,000 increase were cyber security related costs and recruitment fees. Lastly, partially offsetting the above increases was a reduction of $273,000 in our variable expenses. Variable expenses include among other items, commissions, freight out, travel, advertising, shipping supplies and warranty costs. Driving this decline were significantly lower advertising and shipping costs at Florida Pneumatic, caused by a change in a distribution channel strategy.

INTEREST


	Three months ended March 31,				Increase (decrease)
	2022		2021		Amount		%
Interest expense attributable to:
Short-term borrowings	$	48,000	$	10,000	$	38,000	380.0	%
PPP loan		—		8,000		(8,000)	(100.0)
Amortization expense of debt issue costs		4,000		4,000		—	—

Total	$	52,000	$	22,000	$	30,000	136.4	%

Our borrowings increased during the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, compared to the same period in the prior year. This increase was driven primarily by the decision to increase safety stock levels on inventory and the acquisition in 2022 of the Jackson Gear Company business.

The average balance of short-term borrowings during the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, were $10,157,000 and $2,167,000, respectively.

Debt issue costs are associated with an amendment to the Credit Agreement. There were no amortizable debt issue costs incurred with Amendment No. 9, to the Credit Agreement.

INCOME TAXES

At the end of each interim reporting period, we compute an effective tax rate based upon our estimated full year results. This estimate is used to determine the income tax provision or benefit on a year-to-date basis and may change in subsequent interim periods. Accordingly, the effective tax rate for the three-month periods ended March 31, 2022, and 2021, were approximately a tax benefit of 13.4 %, and 18.6%, respectively. The effective tax rates for all periods presented were impacted primarily by state taxes, and non-deductible expenses. Additionally, impacting 2021’s net effective tax benefit was the enactment of the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

We monitor such metrics as days’ sales outstanding, inventory requirements, inventory turns, estimated future purchasing requirements and capital expenditures to project liquidity needs, as well as evaluate return on assets. Our primary sources of funds are operating cash flows, existing working capital and our Revolver Loan (“Revolver”) with our Bank.

We gauge our liquidity and financial stability by various measurements, some of which are shown in the following table:


	March 31, 2022		December 31, 2021
Working capital	$	22,375,000	$	24,598,000
Current ratio		2.15 to 1		3.04 to 1
Shareholders’ equity	$	43,181,000	$	43,840,000

Credit facility

Our Credit Facility is discussed in detail in Note 9, to our Consolidated Financial Statements. Discussed therein, we and the Bank entered into an amendment that, among other things, increased the Revolver borrowing commitment by $2,000,000 to $18,000,000 through June 30, 2022.

At March 31, 2022, there was approximately $3,360,000 available to us under its Revolver arrangement.

Should the need arise whereby the current Credit Agreement is insufficient; we believe that the current Agreement could be expanded, and/or we could obtain additional funds based on the value of our real property.

Cash flows

For the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, cash used by operating activities was $3,972,000, compared to cash used by operating activities for the year ended December 31, 2021, of $4,149,000. At March 31, 2022, our consolidated cash balance was $642,000, compared to $539,000 at December 31, 2021. Cash at our UAT subsidiary was $190,000 at March 31, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. We operate under the terms and conditions of the Credit Agreement. As a result, all domestic cash receipts are remitted to Capital One lockboxes.

Our total debt to total book capitalization (total debt divided by total debt plus equity) on March 31, 2022, was 22.5%, compared to 11.6% on December 31, 2021.

Our working capital needs will increase due to anticipated growth, and a roll-out of a new tools program to our Retail customer. As a result, our Revolver borrowings will likely increase in the first half of 2022 and should then decline throughout the remainder of 2022.

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, we completed the JGC acquisition, with a purchase price of $2,300,000, plus acquisition expenses that included among other things, legal, accounting, and relocation expenses. (See Note 2).

During the three-month period ended March 31, 2022, we used $380,000 for capital expenditures, compared to $68,000 during the same period in the prior year. Capital expenditures currently planned for the remainder of 2022 are approximately $800,000, which we expect will be financed through the Credit Facility.

Cash Flows- Continued

The major portion of these planned capital expenditures will be for new metal cutting equipment, tooling and information technology hardware and software, and the expansion of our Punxsutawney, PA facility as a result of the acquisition of Jackson Gear (See Note 2).

Our liquidity and capital is primarily sourced from our credit facility, described in Note 9 – Debt, to our Consolidated Financial Statements, and cash from operations.

Customer concentration

Refer to Note 1 – Business and summary of accounting policies – Customer Concentration for a detailed discussion.

IMPACT OF INFLATION

Increasing prices, most notably in freight/transportation and, to a lesser extent, the cost of raw materials and labor had a material effect on our results of operations during the three-month period ended March 31, 2022. We believe that the current and projected significant increases of inflation, the on-going volatility of freight/transportation costs, and recent geopolitical unrest will have an impact on our results of operations during 2022. At the present time we are unable to reasonably estimate said impact on our results of operations for the remainder of 2022 and beyond.

NEW ACCOUNTING PRONOUNCEMENTS

There were no new accounting standards or pronouncements issued during the three-month period ended March 31, 2022 that were applicable to us.

We do not believe that any recently issued, but not yet effective accounting standard, if adopted, will have a material effect on our consolidated financial statements

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company’s management, with the participation of the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), evaluated, as of March 31, 2022, the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures, which were designed to be effective at the reasonable assurance level. The term “disclosure controls and procedures,” as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Exchange Act, means controls and other procedures of a company that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by a company in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act is accumulated and communicated to the Company’s management, including its principal executive and principal financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Management recognizes that any controls and procedures, no matter how well designed and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance of achieving their objectives and management necessarily applies its judgment in evaluating the cost-benefit relationship of possible controls and procedures. Based on the evaluation of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of March 31, 2022, the Company’s management, including its CEO and CFO, concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were effective at that date.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There was no change in our internal control over financial reporting, identified in connection with the evaluation required by Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(d), that occurred during our most recently completed fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2022 that has materially affected, or is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
