Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and Subsidiaries
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
September 30, 2022

NOTE 1 — Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “our” or the “Company”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three- and nine-month periods ended September 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022. The balance sheet at December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2 — New Accounting Pronouncements

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting,” which was issued in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and, particularly, the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate. The guidance is effective upon issuance and may be adopted on any date on or after March 12, 2020. However, the relief is temporary and generally cannot be applied to contract modifications that occur after December 31, 2022 or hedging relationships entered into or evaluated after that date. This standard is not expected to have a material impact once adopted.

No other recently-issued ASUs are expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.
    
NOTE 3 - Revenue

We disaggregate our revenue by product line and geographic region of our customer as we believe these metrics best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenues and cash flows are affected by economic factors. See details in the tables below.

NOTE 4 — Segments

Our operating segments are defined as components of the enterprise for which separate financial information is available and evaluated on a regular basis by our chief operating decision maker to allocate resources and assess performance.

For purposes of measuring business segment performance, the Company utilizes segment operating income, which is defined as revenues less expenses identifiable to the product lines within each segment. The Company does not allocate items that are non-operating; unusual in nature; or corporate costs, which include but are not limited to executive and share-based compensation and corporate office costs. Segment operating income reconciles to consolidated income before income taxes by deducting corporate costs; Other components of pension income and other postretirement benefits expense, net; and interest expense, net.

In the three months ended September 30, 2022, income tax benefit was $3.0 million on pre-tax income of $0.1 million. The overall benefit included a discrete benefit of $2.4 million due primarily to changes in estimates related to prior year federal research and development credits, Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”), Foreign-Derived Intangible Income (“FDII”) and foreign tax credits. In the three months ended September 30, 2021, income tax benefit was $2.8 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 27%. This rate is higher than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% due primarily to the additional tax benefit recorded as result of stock compensation that vested and state and local taxes during the quarter.

In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, income tax benefit was $5.7 million on pre-tax income of $5.2 million. The overall benefit included discrete tax benefits totaling $6.5 million related primarily to changes in estimates related to prior year federal research and development credits, GILTI, FDII and foreign tax credits. In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, income tax benefit was $3.7 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 33%. This rate is higher than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the additional benefit recorded as result of the net operating loss carryback claim under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and the composition of earnings.

NOTE 12 — Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to a variety of claims, suits, investigations and administrative proceedings with respect to commercial, premises liability, product liability, employment, personal injury and environmental matters arising from the ordinary course of business. The Company records a liability for loss contingencies in the consolidated financial statements when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Our provisions are based on historical experience, current information and legal advice, and they may be adjusted in the future based on new developments. Estimating probable losses requires the analysis of multiple forecasted factors that often depend on judgments and potential actions by third parties. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the ultimate outcome or cost of these matters, the Company believes they will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Our subsidiaries are involved in a number of contractual and warranty-related disputes. We believe that appropriate liabilities for these contingencies have been recorded; however, actual results may differ materially from our estimates.

In addition to the routine lawsuits and asserted claims noted above, we are also a co-defendant in 99 cases asserting claims on behalf of 162 plaintiffs alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. In every asbestos case in which we are named as a party, the complaints are filed against multiple named defendants. Historically, we have been dismissed from asbestos cases.  We intend to vigorously defend these cases and believe we will continue to be successful in being dismissed from such cases. 

While it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings due to the unpredictable nature of personal injury litigation, and although our results of operations and cash flows for a particular period could be adversely affected by asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings, management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

Net Sales

Net sales increased 21.6% to $435.8 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $358.5 million in the same period in 2021. This increase was primarily due to higher customer demand and increased net price realization in all three of our business segments.

The factors explaining the changes in segment net sales for the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the corresponding 2021 period are contained within the “Segment Results” section below.

Cost of Sales & Gross Margin

Cost of sales increased 21.0% to $385.4 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $318.4 million in the same period in 2021. The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to the increase in net sales for the 2022 period compared to the corresponding period in 2021, as well as the factors listed below that impacted gross margin.

Gross margin was 11.6% in the third quarter of 2022 compared to 11.2% in the same period in 2021. The higher margin in the 2022 was driven by increased net price realization and profit flow-through from higher volumes, which more than offset the ongoing impact of inflation, higher labor costs and supply chain constraints. The third quarter of 2022 included expenses of $2.5 million related to plant closure and consolidation and other actions to improve profitability. The third quarter of 2021 included expenses of $1.8 million related to plant closure and consolidation actions.

SG&A Expenses
22

Table of Contents


SG&A expenses decreased to $43.4 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $45.1 million in the comparable period in 2021, a decrease of 3.8%. The decrease in SG&A expenses is primarily attributable to the lower personnel related expenses. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 10.0% in third quarter of 2022 compared to 12.6% in the comparable period in 2021. The improvement in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales was also driven by the impact of fixed SG&A expenses over the higher revenue base in the 2022 quarter compared to the same quarter a year ago. SG&A expenses in the 2022 period included $1.9 million of charges related to plant closure and consolidation, severance and other actions to improve future profitability and $0.4 million of acquisition-related costs. The third quarter of 2021 included $2.5 million of expenses related to plant closure and consolidation and other costs.

Other Components of Pension Income and Other Postretirement Benefits Expense (“OPEB”), Net

Other components of pension income and OPEB expense, net was $2.7 million in the three months ended September 30, 2022 compared to $2.4 million in the corresponding period in 2021. This increase was driven by estimated higher returns on plan assets and lower actuarial loss in the 2022 period compared to the same period a year ago.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net was $9.6 million in the third quarter of 2022 compared to $7.6 million in the 2021 period. The increase was due to higher average outstanding borrowings and higher interest rates during the 2022 period.

Income Tax Benefit

In the three months ended September 30, 2022, income tax benefit was $3.0 million on pre-tax income of $0.1 million. The overall benefit included a discrete benefit of $2.4 million due primarily to changes in estimates related to prior year federal research and development credits, Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”), Foreign-Derived Intangible Income (“FDII”) and foreign tax credits. In the three months ended September 30, 2021, income tax benefit was $2.8 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 27%. This rate is higher than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% due primarily to the additional tax benefit recorded as result of stock compensation that vested and state and local taxes during the quarter.

Net Sales

Net sales increased 20.1% to $1,282.8 million in the first nine months of 2022 compared to $1,068.1 million in the same period in 2021. This increase was primarily due to higher customer demand and increased net price realization in all three of our business segments.

The factors explaining the changes in segment net sales for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the corresponding 2021 period are contained in the “Segment Results” section below.

Cost of Sales & Gross Margin

Cost of sales increased 20.6% to $1,128.9 million in the first nine months of 2022 compared to $936.1 million in the same period in 2021. The increase in cost of sales was primarily due to the increase in net sales described above.

24

Table of Contents

Gross margin was 12.0% in the first nine months of 2022 compared to 12.4% in the corresponding period in 2021. The margin decline was due to charges of $8.4 million in the 2022 period related to plant closure can consolidation and other actions to improve future profitability, compared to similar charges of $2.9 million in the 2021 period.

SG&A Expenses

SG&A expenses were $134.2 million in the first nine months of 2022, compared to $128.1 million in the same period in 2021, an increase of 4.8%. As a percentage of net sales, SG&A expenses were 10.5% in first nine months of 2022 compared to 12.0% in the comparable period in 2021. The improvement in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales was driven by the impact of fixed SG&A expenses over the higher revenue base in the 2022 period compared to the same period a year ago, which more than offset higher selling expenses as a result of higher sales levels, higher costs due to ongoing inflation, and expenses related to plant closure and consolidation. SG&A expenses in the 2022 period included $4.5 million of expenses related to plant closure and consolidation, severance and other costs and $0.7 million of acquisition-related expenses. SG&A expenses in the 2021 period included expenses of $4.1 million for plant closure and consolidation, severance and other costs and $0.4 million of acquisition-related costs.

Gain on Sale of Assets

During the second quarter of 2022, in connection with the plant closure and consolidation initiatives, the Company sold real estate within the Engineered Products segment for cash proceeds of $3.6 million, resulting in a gain of $2.5 million, and within the Assembly Components segment for cash proceeds of $0.4 million, resulting in a gain of $0.4 million.

Other Components of Pension Income and OPEB, Net

Other components of pension income and OPEB expense, net was $8.3 million in the first nine months of 2022 compared to $7.3 million in the corresponding period in 2021. This increase was driven by estimated higher returns on plan assets and lower actuarial loss in the 2022 period compared to the same period a year ago.

Interest Expense, Net

Interest expense, net was $25.7 million in the first nine months of 2022 compared to $22.4 million in the 2021 period. The increase was due primarily to higher average outstanding debt balances and higher interest rates in the 2022 period compared to the same period a year ago.

Income Tax Benefit

In the nine months ended September 30, 2022, income tax benefit was $5.7 million on pre-tax income of $5.2 million. The overall benefit included discrete tax benefits totaling $6.5 million related primarily to changes in estimates related to prior year federal research and development credits, GILTI, FDII and foreign tax credits. In the nine months ended September 30, 2021, income tax benefit was $3.7 million, representing an effective income tax rate of 33%. This rate is higher than the U.S. statutory rate of 21% primarily due to the additional benefit recorded as result of the net operating loss carryback claim under the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security Act and the composition of earnings.

SEGMENT RESULTS

For purposes of business segment performance measurement, the Company utilizes segment operating income, which is defined as revenues less expenses identifiable to the product lines within each segment. The Company does not allocate items that are non-operating or unusual in nature or are corporate costs, which include but are not limited to executive and share-based compensation and corporate office costs.

Operating Activities

In the first nine months of 2022, we had cash usage of $31.4 million compared to $25.9 million in the same period of 2021. The usage of cash was driven by higher working capital levels in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 compared to the same period a year ago. In the 2022 period, working capital increased $67.2 million, compared to $45.1 million in the 2021 period, with the higher amount in 2022 driven by an increase in inventories of $52.7 million resulting from higher sales levels and supply chain constraints and an increase in accounts receivable of $35.5 million resulting from higher sales.

Investing Activities

Capital expenditures were $23.7 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and were primarily to provide increased capacity for future growth in our Engineered Products and Assembly Components segments, for facility consolidation in our Engineered Products segment and to maintain existing operations. Additionally, the Company sold real estate for total proceeds of $4.0 million and made two acquisitions, which utilized cash of $21.9 million.

Capital expenditures were $24.9 million in the nine months ended September 30, 2021 and were primarily to provide increased capacity for future growth in our Engineered Products and Assembly Components segments and to maintain existing operations. Also in the 2021 period, the Company acquired NYK Component Solutions Limited ("NYK") for $5.4 million.

Financing Activities

During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we had net debt borrowings of $85.1 million to fund our higher working capital levels and complete two acquisitions. In addition, in the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we made cash dividend payments to shareholders totaling $4.8 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2021, we had net debt borrowings of $71.8 million and paid dividends to shareholders of $4.7 million. The borrowings were used to fund our higher working capital levels and the acquisition of NYK.

We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financing or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, other than the letters of credits disclosed in Note 10 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere herein.

Liquidity

Our liquidity needs are primarily for working capital, capital expenditures, dividends and acquisitions. Our primary sources of liquidity have been funds provided by operations, funds available from existing bank credit arrangements and the sale of our debt securities. Our existing financial resources (working capital and available bank borrowing arrangements) and anticipated cash flow from operations are expected to be adequate to meet anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve months and the foreseeable future thereafter, including but not limited to our ability to maintain current operations and fund capital expenditure requirements, service our debt, pursue acquisitions, pay dividends and repurchase common shares.

28

Table of Contents

As of September 30, 2022, we had total liquidity of $163.6 million, which included $53.7 million of cash and cash equivalents and $109.9 million of unused borrowing availability under our credit agreements, which included $23.6 million of suppressed availability.

The Company had cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries of $43.1 million at September 30, 2022 and $44.2 million at December 31, 2021. We do not expect restrictions on repatriation of cash held outside the U.S. to have a material effect on our overall liquidity, financial condition or results of operations for the foreseeable future.

The Company has two components to its assertion regarding reinvestment of foreign earnings outside of the United States.  First, for all foreign subsidiaries except RB&W Corporation of Canada (“RB&W”), all earnings are permanently reinvested outside of the United States.  Second, for RB&W, dividend distributions may be made, but only to the extent of current earnings in excess of cash required to fund its business operations; all accumulated earnings are permanently reinvested.

Senior Notes

In April 2017, Park-Ohio Industries, Inc. (“Park-Ohio”), the operating subsidiary of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp., completed the sale, in a private placement, of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were used to repay in full our previously outstanding 8.125% Senior Notes due 2021 and our outstanding term loan, and to repay a portion of the borrowings then outstanding under our revolving credit facility.

Credit Agreement

Park-Ohio’s Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (as amended, the “Credit Agreement”) provides for a revolving credit facility in the amount of $405.0 million, including a $40.0 million Canadian revolving subcommitment and a European revolving subcommitment in the amount of $30.0 million. Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, Park-Ohio has the option to increase the availability under the revolving credit facility by an aggregate incremental amount up to $70.0 million. The Credit Agreement matures on November 26, 2024.

Finance Leases

In August 2015, the Company entered into a Capital Lease Agreement (the “Lease Agreement”). The Lease Agreement provides the Company up to $50.0 million for finance leases. Finance lease obligations of $13.0 million were borrowed under the Lease Agreement to acquire machinery and equipment as of September 30, 2022.

Covenants

The future availability of bank borrowings under the revolving credit facility provided by the Credit Agreement is based on (1) our calculated availability under the Credit Agreement and (2) if such calculated availability decreases below $50.625 million, our ability to meet a debt service ratio covenant. If our calculated availability is less than $50.625 million, our debt service coverage ratio must be greater than 1.0. At September 30, 2022, our calculated availability under the Credit Agreement was $78.8 million; therefore, the debt service ratio covenant did not apply.

Failure to maintain calculated availability of at least $50.625 million and meet the debt service ratio covenant could materially impact the availability and interest rate of future borrowings. Our debt service coverage ratio could be materially impacted by negative economic trends, including the negative trends caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. To make certain permitted payments as defined under the Credit Agreement, including but not limited to acquisitions and dividends, we must meet defined availability thresholds ranging from $37.5 million to $50.625 million, and a defined debt service coverage ratio of 1.15.

As our calculated availability under the Credit Agreement was above $50.625 million, we were also in compliance with the other covenants contained in the revolving credit facility as of September 30, 2022. While we expect to remain in compliance throughout 2022, declines in sales volumes in the future, including any declines caused by the COVID-19
29

pandemic, could adversely impact our ability to remain in compliance with certain of these financial covenants. Additionally, to the extent our customers are adversely affected by declines in the economy in general, including the decline caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, they may be unable to pay their accounts payable to us on a timely basis or at all, which could make our accounts receivable ineligible for purposes of the revolving credit facility and could reduce our borrowing base and our ability to borrow under such facility.

Dividends

The Company paid dividends to shareholders of $4.8 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2022. On November 4, 2022, the Company's Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.125 per common share. The dividend will be paid on December 2, 2022 to shareholders of record as of the close of business on November 18, 2022 and will result in a cash outlay of approximately $1.6 million. Although we currently intend to pay a quarterly dividend on an ongoing basis, all future dividend declarations will be at the discretion of our Board of Directors and dependent upon then-existing conditions, including our operating results and financial condition, capital requirements, contractual restrictions, business prospects and other factors that our Board of Directors may deem relevant.
Seasonality; Variability of Operating Results

The timing of orders placed by our customers has varied with, among other factors, orders for customers’ finished goods, customer production schedules, competitive conditions and general economic conditions. The variability of the level and timing of orders has, from time to time, resulted in significant periodic and quarterly fluctuations in the operations of our businesses. Such variability is particularly evident in our capital equipment business, included in the Engineered Products segment, which typically ships large systems at a relatively lower pace than our other businesses.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies are described in "Item. 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and in the notes to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2021, both contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There were no new critical accounting policies or updates to existing critical accounting policies as a result of new accounting pronouncements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The application of our critical accounting policies may require management to make judgments and estimates about the amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Management uses historical experience and all available information to make these estimates and judgments, and different amounts could be reported using different assumptions and estimates.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain statements that are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The words “believes”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “expects”, “intends”, “estimates” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements, including statements regarding future performance of the Company, that are subject to known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance and achievements, or industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such forward-looking statements. These factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include, but are not limited to, the following: the ultimate impact the COVID-19 pandemic has on our business, results of operations, financial position and liquidity, including, without limitation, supply chain issues such as the global semiconductor micro-chip shortage and logistic issues; our substantial indebtedness; the uncertainty of the global economic environment, including any recession; general business conditions and competitive factors, including pricing pressures and product innovation; demand for our products and services; the impact of labor disturbances affecting our customers; raw material availability and pricing; fluctuations in energy costs; component part availability and pricing; changes in our relationships with customers and suppliers;

Table of Contents

the financial condition of our customers, including the impact of any bankruptcies; our ability to successfully integrate recent and future acquisitions into existing operations; the amounts and timing, if any, of purchases of our common stock; changes in general economic conditions such as inflation rates, interest rates, tax rates, unemployment rates, higher labor and healthcare costs, recessions and changing government policies, laws and regulations, including those related to the current global uncertainties and crises, such as tariffs and surcharges; adverse impacts to us, our suppliers and customers from acts of terrorism or hostilities, including the evolving situation with Russia and Ukraine; public health issues, including the outbreak of COVID-19 and its impact on our facilities and operations and our customers and suppliers; our ability to meet various covenants, including financial covenants, contained in the agreements governing our indebtedness; disruptions, uncertainties or volatility in the credit markets that may limit our access to capital; potential disruption due to a partial or complete reconfiguration of the European Union; increasingly stringent domestic and foreign governmental regulations, including those affecting the environment or import and export controls and other trade barriers; inherent uncertainties involved in assessing our potential liability for environmental remediation-related activities; the outcome of pending and future litigation and other claims and disputes with customers; our dependence on the automotive and heavy-duty truck industries, which are highly cyclical; the dependence of the automotive industry on consumer spending; our ability to negotiate contracts with labor unions; our dependence on key management; our dependence on information systems; our ability to continue to pay cash dividends, and the timing and amount of any such dividends; and the other factors we describe under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a forward-looking statement herein should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved.

Item 3.Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk, including changes in interest rates. As of September 30, 2022, we are subject to interest rate risk on borrowings under the floating rate revolving credit facility provided by our Credit Agreement. A 100-basis-point increase in the interest rate would have resulted in an increase in interest expense on these borrowings of approximately $2.3 million during the nine-month period ended September 30, 2022.

Our foreign subsidiaries generally conduct business in local currencies. We face translation risks related to the changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Amounts invested in our foreign operations are translated in U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Shareholders' equity section of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Sales and expenses at our foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable monthly average exchange rates. Therefore, changes in exchange rates may either positively or negatively affect our net sales and expenses from foreign operations as expressed in U.S. dollars.

Our largest exposures to commodity prices relate to metal and rubber compound, which have fluctuated widely in recent years. During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, we entered into agreements to hedge foreign currency. The agreement will not have a material impact on the results of the Company. We have no other commodity swap agreements or forward purchase contracts.

Item 4.Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Part II. Other Information
 
Item 1.Legal Proceedings

We are involved in a variety of claims, suits, investigations and administrative proceedings with respect to commercial, premises liability, product liability, employment, personal injury and environmental matters arising from the ordinary course of business. While any such claims, suits, investigations and proceedings involve an element of uncertainty, in the opinion of management, liabilities, if any, arising from currently pending or threatened litigation are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

In addition to the routine lawsuits and asserted claims noted above, we were a party to the lawsuits and legal proceedings described below as of September 30, 2022:

We were a co-defendant in 99 cases asserting claims on behalf of 162 plaintiffs alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. These asbestos cases generally relate to production and sale of asbestos-containing products and allege various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability, and seek compensatory and, in some cases, punitive damages.

In every asbestos case in which we are named as a party, the complaints are filed against multiple named defendants. In substantially all of the asbestos cases, the plaintiffs either claim damages in excess of a specified amount, typically a minimum amount sufficient to establish jurisdiction of the court in which the case was filed (jurisdictional minimums generally range from $25,000 to $75,000), or do not specify the monetary damages sought. To the extent that any specific amount of damages is sought, the amount applies to claims against all named defendants.

There are four asbestos cases, involving 20 plaintiffs, that plead specified damages against named defendants. In each of the four cases, the plaintiff is seeking compensatory and punitive damages based on a variety of potentially alternative causes of action. In two cases, the plaintiff has alleged three counts at $3.0 million compensatory and punitive damages each; one count at $3.0 million compensatory and $1.0 million punitive damages; one count at $1.0 million. In the third case, the plaintiff has alleged compensatory and punitive damages, each in the amount of $20.0 million, for three separate causes of action, and $5.0 million compensatory damages for the fifth cause of action. In the fourth case, the plaintiff has alleged compensatory and punitive damages, each in the amount of $10.0 million, for ten separate causes of action.

Historically, we have been dismissed from asbestos cases on the basis that the plaintiff incorrectly sued one of our subsidiaries or because the plaintiff failed to identify any asbestos-containing product manufactured or sold by us or our subsidiaries. We intend to vigorously defend these asbestos cases, and believe we will continue to be successful in being dismissed from such cases. However, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings due to the unpredictable nature of personal injury litigation. Despite this uncertainty, and although our results of operations and cash flows for a particular period could be adversely affected by asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings, management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. Among the factors management considered in reaching this conclusion were: (a) our historical success in being dismissed from these types of lawsuits on the bases mentioned above; (b) many cases have been improperly filed against one of our subsidiaries; (c) in many cases the plaintiffs have been unable to establish any causal relationship to us or our products or premises; (d) in many cases, the plaintiffs have been unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any identifiable injury or compensable loss at all or that any injuries that they have incurred did in fact result from alleged exposure to asbestos; and (e) the complaints assert claims against multiple defendants and, in most cases, the damages alleged are not attributed to individual defendants. Additionally, we do not believe that the amounts claimed in any of the asbestos cases are meaningful indicators of our potential exposure because the amounts claimed typically bear no relation to the extent of the plaintiff's injury, if any.
Our cost of defending these lawsuits has not been material to date and, based upon available information, our management does not expect its future costs for asbestos-related lawsuits to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity or financial position.
