NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements (“consolidated financial statements”) have been prepared in accordance with United States generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by United States generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments which are, in the opinion of management, necessary for a fair statement of the results for the interim periods presented. All such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. Operating results for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the Consolidated Financial Statements and related Notes to such statements included in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 that was previously filed by the Company.
COVID-19 Impacts on Our Business
On March 11, 2020, the World Health Organization declared the outbreak of the coronavirus a global pandemic. COVID-19 resulted in the disruption of our operations due to the push-out of orders by our customers, elevated safety standards to keep our employees safe, and supply chain challenges. We continue to maintain the health and safety of our employees while meeting the needs of our customers and securing the financial well-being of the Company. All of our operations and production activities have remained operational. See “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operation” for more information related to COVID-19.
2. Business Description and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
Business Description
Servotronics, Inc. and its subsidiaries design, manufacture and market advanced technology products consisting primarily of control components, and consumer products consisting of knives and various types of cutlery and other edged products.
Principles of Consolidation
The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Servotronics, Inc. and its wholly-owned subsidiaries (the “Company”). All intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated upon consolidation.
Cash
The Company considers cash to include all currency and coins owned by the Company as well as all deposits in the bank including checking accounts and savings accounts.
Accounts Receivable
The Company grants credit to substantially all of its customers and carries its accounts receivable at original invoice amount less an allowance for doubtful accounts. On a periodic basis, the Company evaluates its accounts receivable and establishes an allowance for doubtful accounts based on history of past write-offs, collections, and current credit conditions. The allowance for doubtful accounts amounted to approximately $131,000 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The Company does not accrue interest on past due receivables.

Revenue Recognition
Revenues are recognized at the time of shipment of goods, transfer of title and customer acceptance, as required. Our revenue transactions generally consist of a single performance obligation to transfer contracted goods and are not accounted for under industry-specific guidance. Purchase orders generally include specific terms relative to quantity, item description, specifications, price, customer responsibility for in-process costs, delivery schedule, shipping point, payment and other standard terms and conditions of purchase. Service sales, principally representing repair, are recognized at the time of shipment of goods. The costs incurred for nonrecurring engineering, development and repair activities of our products under agreements with commercial customers are expensed as incurred. Subsequently, the revenue is recognized as products are delivered to the customers with the approval by the customers.
Revenue is recognized at an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferring goods and services to a customer. The Company determines revenue recognition using the following five steps: (1) identify the contract(s) with a customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price, (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations in the contract; and (5) recognize revenue when the company satisfies a performance obligation.
Revenue excludes taxes assessed by a governmental authority that are both imposed on and concurrent with a specific revenue-producing transaction and collected by the Company from a customer (e.g., sales and use taxes). Revenue includes payments for shipping activities that are reimbursed by the customer to the Company.
Performance obligations are satisfied as of a point in time. Performance obligations are supported by contracts with customers, providing a framework for the nature of the distinct goods, services or bundle of goods and services. The timing of satisfying the performance obligation is typically indicated by the terms of the contract. As a significant portion of the Company’s revenue are recognized at the time of shipment, transfer of title and customer acceptance, there is no significant judgment applied to determine the timing of the satisfaction of performance obligations or transaction price. Shipping and handling activities that occur after the customer obtains control of the promised goods are considered fulfillment activities.
The timing of satisfaction of our performance obligations does not significantly vary from the typical timing of payment. The Company generally receives payment for these contracts within the payment terms negotiated and agreed upon by each customer contract.
Warranty and repair obligations are assessed on all returns. Revenue is not recorded on any warranty returns. The Company warrants its products against design, materials and workmanship based on an average of twenty-seven months. The Company determines warranty reserves needed based on actual average costs of warranty units shipped and current facts and circumstances. As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 under the guidance of ASC460 the Company has recorded a warranty reserve of approximately $496,000 and $511,000, respectively. This amount is reflected in other accrued expenses in the accompanying balance sheet. Revenue is recognized on repair returns, covered under a customer contract, at the contractual price upon shipment to the customer.
Inventories
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost includes all costs incurred to bring each product to its present location and condition. Market provisions in respect of lower of cost or market adjustments and inventory expected to be used in greater than two years are applied to the gross value of the inventory through a reserve of approximately $1,663,000 and $1,742,000 at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively. Pre-production and start-up costs are expensed as incurred.
The purchase of suppliers’ minimum economic quantities of material such as steel, etc. may result in a purchase of quantities exceeding one year of customer requirements. Also, in order to maintain a reasonable and/or agreed to lead time, certain larger quantities of other product support items may have to be purchased and may result in over one year’s supply.

Shipping and Handling Costs
Shipping and handling costs are classified as a component of cost of goods sold.
Property, Plant and Equipment
Property, plant and equipment is carried at cost; expenditures for new facilities and equipment and expenditures which substantially increase the useful lives of existing plant and equipment are capitalized; expenditures for maintenance and repairs are expensed as incurred. Upon disposal of properties, the related cost and accumulated depreciation are removed from the respective accounts and any profit or loss on disposition is included in income.
Depreciation is provided on the basis of estimated useful lives of depreciable properties, primarily by the straight-line method for financial statement purposes and by accelerated methods for income tax purposes. Depreciation expense includes the amortization of right-of-use (“ROU”) assets accounted for as finance leases. The estimated useful lives of depreciable properties are generally as follows:
Buildings and improvements |
| 5-40 years |
Machinery and equipment | 5-20 years | |
Tooling | 3‑5 years |
Income Taxes
The Company recognizes deferred tax assets and liabilities for the expected future tax consequences of temporary differences between the carrying amounts and the tax basis of assets and liabilities, as well as operating loss and credit carryforwards. The Company and its subsidiaries file a consolidated federal income tax return, combined New York, Texas, California and Connecticut state income tax returns and a separate Arkansas state income tax return.
The Company’s practice is to recognize interest and/or penalties related to income tax matters in income tax expense. The Company did not have any accrued interest or penalties included in its consolidated balance sheets at June 30, 2022 or December 31, 2021, and did not recognize any interest and/or penalties in its consolidated statements of operations during the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021. The Company did not have any material uncertain tax positions or unrecognized tax benefits or obligations as of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021. The 2018 through 2021 federal and state tax returns remain subject to examination.
Supplemental Cash Flow Information
There were income tax refunds received of approximately $811,000 and $0 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Income tax paid amounted to approximately $50,000 and $180,000 for the six month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. Interest paid during the six month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 amounted to approximately $66,000 and $73,000, respectively.
Employee Stock Ownership Plan
Contributions to the employee stock ownership plan are determined annually by the Company according to plan formula.
Impairment of Long-Lived Assets
The Company reviews long-lived assets for impairment annually or whenever events or changes in business circumstances indicate that the carrying amount of the assets may not be fully recoverable based on undiscounted future operating cash flow analyses. If an impairment is determined to exist, any related impairment loss is calculated based on fair value. Due to the losses incurred by our Consumer Products Group (“CPG”), we performed a test for recoverability of the long-lived assets by comparing its carrying value to the future undiscounted cash flows that we expect will be generated by the asset group. Impairment losses on assets to be disposed of, if any, are based on the estimated proceeds to be received, less costs of disposal. The Company has determined that no impairment of long-lived assets existed at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021.

SERVOTRONICS, INC. AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
Use of Estimates
The preparation of the consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (GAAP) requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.
Reclassifications
Certain balances, as previously reported, were reclassified to conform to classifications adopted in the current period.
Research and Development Costs
Research and development costs are expensed as incurred.
Concentration of Credit Risks
Financial instruments that potentially subject the Company to concentration of credit risks principally consist of cash accounts in financial institutions. Although the accounts exceed the federally insured deposit amount, management assesses the risk of nonperformance by the financial institutions to be low.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The carrying amount of cash, accounts receivable, accounts payable and accrued expenses are reasonable estimates of their fair value due to their short maturity. Based on variable interest rates and the borrowing rates currently available to the Company for loans similar to its long-term debt, the fair value approximates its carrying amount.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments-Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments, which creates a new credit impairment standard for financial assets measured at amortized cost and available-for-sale debt securities. The ASU requires financial assets measured at amortized cost (including loans, trade receivables and held-to-maturity debt securities) to be presented at the net amount expected to be collected, through an allowance for credit losses that are expected to occur over the remaining life of the asset, rather than incurred losses. The measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets (other than certain purchased assets) and subsequent changes in the allowance for credit losses are recorded in the statement of income as the amounts expected to be collected change. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, including interim periods within those fiscal years. ASU 2016-13 will be adopted by the Company as of January 1, 2023. The Company is currently evaluating the impact of adopting this new guidance on its consolidated financial statements and does not expect the impact to be significant.

On January 11, 2022, the Company executed an amendment to the loan agreement, which extended the line of credit availability period from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2023. The amended agreement suspended the Debt Service Coverage Ratio loan covenant up through and including the third quarter of 2022. A Quarterly Minimum Cash Flow measurement loan covenant replaced the Debt Service Coverage Ratio loan covenant. Minimum Cash Flow means net income, plus depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense, plus interest expense, plus non-cash expense related to the Servotronics, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan, plus non-cash stock and stock option transactions. Also, the amended agreement requires the Company to maintain a minimum liquidity, defined as cash on hand plus line of credit availability of at least $9,000,000. At June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 the Company was in compliance with our loan covenants.
Although the Company meets the current covenant requirements as of June 30, 2022, it is probable that the Company will fail to meet the Quarterly Minimum Cash Flow covenant requirement as of September 30, 2022. As the Company has no term loan or line of credit outstanding balances as of June 30, 2022 and the Minimum Liquidity Covenant is not expected to fail at September 30, 2022, the Company does not anticipate adverse consequences of its probable failure to satisfy future covenants.
The line of credit is secured by all personal property of the Company with the exception of certain equipment that was purchased from proceeds of government grants. There was approximately $0 and $4,250,000 outstanding at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, respectively.
B.) | The Company had an equipment loan facility in the amount of $1,000,000 available until July 9, 2021. This line was non-revolving and non-renewable. The loan term for the equipment covered by the agreement is 60 months. Monthly payments are fixed for the term of each funding based upon the Lender’s lease pricing in effect at the time of such funding. There was approximately $602,000 outstanding at June 30, 2022 and $712,000 balance outstanding at December 31, 2021. |
C.) | The Company had a lease line of credit for equipment financing in the amount of $1,000,000 available until June 28, 2018. This line was non-revolving and non-renewable. The lease term for equipment covered by the lease line of credit is 60 months. Monthly payments are fixed for the term of each funding based upon the Lender’s lease pricing in effect at the time of such funding. There was approximately $34,000 outstanding at June 30, 2022 and $64,000 at December 31, 2021. |
Principal maturities of long-term debt are as follows: 2022 - $136,000; 2023 - $231,000; 2024 - $182,000; 2025 - $77,000; and 2026 - $10,000. Remaining principal payments and interest payments for the capital note and capital equipment financing lease obligations for each of the next five years:

6. Postretirement Benefit Plan
The Company provides certain postretirement benefits for two former executives of the Company (the Plan). Under the Plan, the Company pays the annual cost of health insurance coverage and provides life insurance at the same level of coverage provided to the former employee at the time of termination of employment. The Plan also provides a benefit to reimburse the participants for certain out-of-pocket medical or health related expenses. The participant’s benefits under the Plan cease upon the death of the former executive. The Plan is unfunded and the actuarially determined future accumulated postretirement benefit obligation at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 was approximately $5,866,000 and $5,865,000, respectively and has been accrued and reflected in Post Retirement Obligation in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets.
Benefit costs for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 totaled $69,000 and $46,000, respectively. Benefit costs for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 totaled $138,000 and $92,000, respectively.

On January 1, 2021, 25,250 shares of restricted stock vested of which 9,920 shares were withheld by the Company for approximately $81,000 to satisfy statutory minimum withholding tax requirements for those participants who elected this option as permitted under the applicable equity plan.
The Company’s director compensation policy provides that non-employee directors receive a portion of their annual retainer in the form of restricted stock under the Company’s 2012 Long-Term Incentive Plan. These shares vest quarterly over a twelve month service period, have voting rights and accrue dividends that are paid upon vesting. The aggregate amount of expense to the Company, measured based on the grant date fair value, will be recognized over the requisite service period. An aggregate of 13,160 restricted shares were issued on May 14, 2021 with a grant date fair value of $100,000.
Included in six months ended June 30, 2022 and June 30, 2021 is approximately $67,000 and $50,000, respectively, of stock-based compensation expense related to the restrictive share awards.

Earnings Per Share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period. The weighted average number of common shares outstanding does not include any potentially dilutive securities or any unvested restricted shares of common stock. These unvested restricted shares, although classified as issued and outstanding, are considered forfeitable until the restrictions lapse and will not be included in the basic EPS calculation until the shares are vested. Diluted earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period plus the number of shares of common stock that would be issued assuming all contingently issuable shares having a dilutive effect on the earnings per share that were outstanding for the period. Incremental shares from assumed conversions are calculated as the number of shares that would be issued, net of the number of shares that could be purchased in the marketplace with the cash received upon stock option exercise. The dilutive effect of unvested restrictive stock is determined using the treasury stock method.

8. Litigation
In the course of its business, the Company is subject to a variety of claims and lawsuits that are inherently subject to many uncertainties regarding the possibility of a loss to the Company. Because litigation outcomes are inherently unpredictable, the Company’s evaluation of legal proceedings often involves a series of complex assessments by management, after consulting with legal counsel, about future events and can rely heavily on estimates and assumptions. The Company carries liability insurance, subject to certain deductibles and policy limits, for such claims as they arise and may from time to time establish reserves for litigation that is considered probable of a loss. The Company does not accrue liabilities when the likelihood that the liability has been incurred is probable but the amount cannot be reasonably estimated, or when the liability is believed to be only reasonably possible or remote.
On June 7, 2021, a Summons and Complaint was filed by an employee in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of Erie, against Servotronics, Inc., the Servotronics Board of Directors, The Ontario Knife Company and Kenneth D. Trbovich (collectively, the “Defendants”). The Complaint alleges certain violations under the New York Human Rights Law by the Defendants relating to the employee’s employment by the Company as well as intentional and negligent infliction of emotional distress. The complaint also alleges certain purported derivative causes of action against all Defendants, including breach of fiduciary duties, fraud and corporate waste. The complaint seeks monetary damages in an amount not less than $5,000,000 with respect to the direct causes of action and equitable relief with respect to the purported derivative causes of action. The Defendants filed a motion to dismiss the Complaint on August 6, 2021. On January 13, 2022, the Defendants’ motion to dismiss was granted, in part, and denied, in part. This litigation is still in its earliest stages. Based on the information known by the Company as of the date of this filing, the Company does not consider the risk of loss to be probable and is unable to reasonably or accurately estimate the likelihood and amount of any liability that may be realized as a result of this litigation. Accordingly, no loss has been recognized in the accompanying financials statements related to this litigation. The Company intends to vigorously defend against this litigation.
On December 21, 2021, the Company’s former Chief Executive Officer (“Former CEO”) delivered his Notice of Termination and alleged that the Company breached the terms of the Employment Agreement between the Company and the Former CEO by, among others, placing the Former CEO on paid administrative leave in June 2021 pending an internal investigation. On December 22, 2021, the Board of Directors accepted the Former CEO’s resignation from the Company but rejected his request to treat his resignation as resignation for good reason under Paragraph 10 of his Employment Agreement. The Board also determined, based on the findings of its investigation that the Former CEO committed willful malfeasance in violation of his Employment Agreement, and that such willful malfeasance would have justified termination of employment pursuant to Paragraph 9 of the Employment Agreement, but for his earlier resignation. The Former CEO claims that he is entitled to a severance payment equal to 2.99 times his average annual compensation as set forth in the Employment Agreement, plus the reimbursement of certain expenses and the value of any lost benefits. As noted above, the Board of Directors rejected the Former CEO’s claim that the Company breached the Employment Agreement. Accordingly, the Company is classifying the Former CEO’s termination as a voluntary resignation for which no severance is due. The Employment Agreement provides that disputes arising thereunder shall be settled by arbitration. To date, neither party has commenced an arbitration proceeding with respect to these matters. Based on the information known by the Company as of the date of this filing, if a claim is ultimately asserted, the Company does not consider the risk of loss to be probable and is unable to reasonably or accurately estimate the likelihood and amount of any liability that may be realized with respect to this matter.
There are no other legal proceedings currently pending by or against the Company other than litigation incidental to the business which is not expected to have a material adverse effect on the business or earnings of the Company.
9. Related Party Transactions
The Company paid legal fees and disbursements of approximately $33,000 and $25,000 in the three month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, for services provided by a law firm that is owned by a member of the Company’s Board of Directors. Legal fees paid to that firm for the six month periods ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 amounted to approximately $54,000 and $44,000, respectively. Additionally, the Company had accrued unbilled legal fees at June 30, 2022 and 2021 of approximately $6,000 and $20,000, respectively, with this firm.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations Overview
During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, approximately 80% and 79%, respectively, of our consolidated revenues were derived from the ATG sale of product to a small base of customers. During the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, approximately 20% and 21%, respectively, of our consolidated revenues were derived from the CPG sale of product to a large base of retail customers. There was an increase in consolidated revenue in the six months ended June 30, 2022 from 2021 of approximately $3,310,000, or 17.3%. This is primarily due to an increase in price at both the ATG of approximately $391,000 and the CPG of approximately $379,000, an increase in the number of units shipped at the ATG of approximately $2,479,000 and a favorable product mix shipped at the CPG of approximately $61,000.
Our commercial business is affected by such factors as uncertainties in today’s global economy, global competition, the vitality and ability of the commercial aviation industry to purchase new aircraft, the effects and threats of terrorism, and market demand.
The ATG engages its business development efforts in its primary markets and is broadening its activities to include new domestic and foreign markets that are consistent with its core competencies. We believe our business remains particularly well positioned in the strong commercial aircraft market driven by the recovery of business with increased demand post COVID, the replacement of older aircraft with more fuel efficient alternatives and the increasing demand for air travel in emerging markets. Although the ATG backlog continues to be strong, actual scheduled shipments may be delayed or changed as a function of our customers’ final delivery determinations.
See also Note 10, Business Segments, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information concerning business segment operating results.
Business Environment
There still remains uncertainty resulting from the COVID-19 pandemic. The ultimate impact depends on the severity and duration of the pandemic, including emergence and spread of new COVID-19 variants and resurgences and actions taken by government authorities and other third parties in response to the pandemic.
U.S. and global markets are experiencing volatility and disruption following the escalation of geopolitical tensions. Disruptions in normal operating levels continue to create supply chain interruptions, volatility in commodity prices, credit and capital markets, and inflationary cost pressures within our end-markets.
We continue to actively monitor the impact of the supply chain constraints, and anticipate the inflationary environment will continue throughout the remainder of 2022. We are focused on ensuring ample liquidity to meet our business needs. For the six months ended June 30, 2022, the impacts of COVID-19 have not been material.

Consolidated revenues from operations increased approximately $1,202,000 or 12.0% for the three month period ended June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021. This is due to the recovery of business within the commercial aircraft market of approximately $607,000 at the ATG and price increases of approximately $318,000 at the ATG and approximately $374,000 at the CPG. This is offset slightly by an unfavorable mix of the product shipped at the CPG of approximately $97,000 as compared to the same three month period ended June 30, 2021.
Consolidated revenues from operations increased approximately $3,310,000 or 17.3% for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021. This is due to the recovery of business within the commercial aircraft market and an increase in price at the ATG of approximately $2,870,000 or 19.1% and a favorable product mix shipped and an increase in price at the CPG of approximately $440,000 or 10.9% for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021.
- 21 -
Both Segment’s revenue improved for the three and six month periods of June 30, 2022 as compared to the same periods ended June 30, 2021.
Gross Margin
Consolidated gross margins from operations decreased approximately $704,000 or (37.6)% for the three month period ended June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021. The gross margins decreased at the ATG by approximately $888,000 or (56.2)% partially offset by an increase at the CPG of approximately $184,000 or 63.2%.
Gross margin benefited in the three month period from the recovery of business within the commercial aircraft market and favorable product mix shipped at the ATG of approximately $169,000 as well as price increases of approximately $318,000. However, these were offset by increased production costs of approximately $537,000 for wages due to the discontinuation of the New York State Shared Work Program in the second half of 2021, approximately $402,000 for acceleration of inventory obsolescence due to market changes, approximately $304,000 for a customer driven process change resulting in a one-time cost increase, and a net increase of approximately $132,000 for all other operating expenses as compared to the same period in 2021. Additionally, gross margin increased in the three month period due to a favorable product mix shipped at the CPG of approximately $277,000 and price increases of approximately $374,000, partially offset by higher production costs of approximately $467,000 as compared to the same period in 2021.
Consolidated gross margins from operations increased approximately $941,000 or 32.8% for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021. The gross margins increased at the ATG by approximately $452,000 or 17.4% and at the CPG by approximately $489,000 or 180.4%.
Gross margin benefited in the six month period as a result of the recovery of business within the commercial aircraft market and favorable product mix shipped at the ATG of approximately $614,000, price increases of approximately $391,000 and a net improvement of production efficiencies partially offset by the discontinued New York State Shared Work Program in the second half of 2021 of approximately $106,000. These increases were partially offset by the acceleration of inventory obsolescence of approximately $659,000 as compared to the same period in 2021. Additionally, gross margin increased in the six month period due to a favorable product mix shipped at the CPG of approximately $419,000 and price increases of approximately $379,000, partially offset by higher production costs of approximately $309,000 as compared to the same period in 2021.
Since late-2020, both Segments have experienced the challenge of fully utilizing their production resources, increasing the cost per unit produced. Additionally, we have incurred increased costs of raw materials and shipping costs associated with the production of our products. The Segments have been closely monitoring all other purchases. Despite these challenges, the consolidated gross margin and gross margin percent for the first six month period of 2022 is higher than the same period in 2021.

Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) decreased approximately $138,000 or 6.2% for the three month period ended June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021. The improvement is driven by the ATG due to lower legal and professional services fees of approximately $56,000 and a reversal of bad debt reserves of approximately $60,000, with all other SG&A expenses netting to a decrease of approximately $22,000 as compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2021.
Selling, general and administrative expenses (SG&A) increased approximately $71,000 or 1.7% for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 when compared to the same period in 2021. The increase is due to higher legal and professional services fees at the ATG of approximately $145,000 and trade shows, travel and meals expenditures at the CPG of approximately $94,000 partially offset by lower compensation at both segments of approximately $168,000 as compared to the same period in 2021.
Despite the increase in consolidated SG&A expenses in the six month period, the percentage to revenue is lower due to higher revenue at both Segments.
Operating Losses
Losses from operations increased approximately $566,000 or 168.0% when compared to the three month period ended June 30, 2022 to the same period in 2021. Losses from operations decreased approximately $870,000 or 66.1% when compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2022 to the same period in 2021. The consolidated improvement in the operating losses for the first six months is discussed above.

As discussed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K, the Company qualified for the Employee Retention Credit (ERC) for all quarters allowed under the Federal Government program. The Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act of 2021, enacted November 15, 2021 terminated the employee retention credit for wages paid in the fourth quarter of 2021 for employers that are not recovery startup businesses. As a result, for the three month and six month periods ended June 30, 2022 there was no recognition of an ERC as compared to approximately $1,914,000 recognized in the three month period and the approximately $3,644,000 recognized in the six month period ended June 30, 2021.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased by 12.1% and 13.4% in the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2022, respectively, when compared to the same period in 2021. This is primarily due to the increase in interest recognized for postretirement benefits offset by the elimination of the interest for the paydown of our term loans as of December 2021. See also Note 5, Long-Term Debt, of the accompanying consolidated financial statements for information on long-term debt.
Income before Income Taxes
Consolidated income before income taxes for the three month period ended June 30, 2022 decreased approximately $2,488,000 when compared to the same period in 2021. The consolidated decrease is primarily the result of the elimination of the ERC credit and increases in the COGS at the ATG segment offset slightly by improved revenues at both Segments and improved operating performance at the CPG segment. The consolidated income before income taxes for the six month period ended June 30, 2022 decreased approximately $2,765,000 or (125.7)% when compared to the same period in 2021. The consolidated decrease is primarily the result of the elimination of the ERC credit and increases in the SG&A offset slightly by improved revenues and operating performance at the CPG segment.

(1) NET OF PROCEEDS FROM SALE OF EQUIPMENT
Operating Activities:
We generated approximately $342,000 in cash from operations during the six month period ended June 30, 2022 as compared to generating approximately $3,866,000 for the same period in 2021. At June 30, 2022, we had working capital of approximately $29,548,000 ($34,067,000 – December 2021) of which approximately $5,108,000 ($9,546,000 – December 2021) was comprised of cash.
The decrease in cash flow from operating activities is primarily attributable to a decrease in net income of approximately $2,212,000, and an increase in accounts receivable of approximately $1,670,000 due to the increases in revenues. This is partially offset by all other operating accounts which generated a net amount of approximately $16,000.
Our cash flow from operations and available capacity provide us with the financial resources needed to run our operations and reinvest in our business. Our ability to maintain sufficient liquidity is highly dependent upon achieving expected operating results. Failure to achieve expected operating results could have a material adverse effect on our liquidity, our ability to obtain financing, and our operations in the future.
Investing Activities:
We used approximately $390,000 in cash from investing activities during the six month period ended June 30, 2022 as compared to a usage of cash of approximately $13,000 during the same period in 2021. The investing activities were primarily related to ATG projects and facilities improvement. Cash was generated through the sale of the Company car.
Financing Activities:
Our primary usage of cash in our financing activities in the six month period ended June 30, 2022 includes the repayment of the line of credit of approximately $4,250,000 and the principal payments on equipment financing obligations of approximately $140,000.
As of March 20, 2020, we increased our line of credit from $4,000,000 to $6,000,000. On January 11, 2022, we executed an amendment to the loan agreement, which extended our line of credit availability period from December 31, 2022 to December 31, 2023. The amended agreement suspended the Debt Service Coverage Ratio up through and including the third quarter of 2022. A Quarterly Minimum Cash Flow measurement replaced the Debt Service Coverage Ratio. Minimum Cash
- 25 -
Flow means net income, plus depreciation, depletion, and amortization expense, plus interest expense, plus non-cash expense related to the Servotronics, Inc. Employee Stock Ownership Plan, plus non-cash stock and stock option transactions.
Through the third quarter of 2022, the amended agreement requires us to maintain a minimum liquidity, defined as cash on hand plus line of credit availability of at least $9,000,000.
The interest rate is a rate per year equal to the sum of (i) the greater of the Bloomberg’s Short-Term Bank Yield (BSBY) Daily Floating Rate or the Index Floor, plus (ii) 1.65 percentage point(s). For purposes of this paragraph, “Index Floor” means 0.5 percent.
The line of credit is secured by all personal property of the Company with the exception of certain equipment that was purchased from proceeds of government grants. There was no balance outstanding at June 30, 2022 and approximately $4,250,000 outstanding at December 31, 2021. The phase out of LIBOR and transition to the BSBY Daily Floating Rate is not expected to have a significant impact on our operating results, financial position, or cash flows as the only outstanding debt is the line of credit.
We had an equipment loan facility in the amount of $1,000,000 available until July 9, 2021. This line was non-revolving and non-renewable. The loan term for the equipment covered by the agreement is 60 months. Monthly payments are fixed for the term of each funding based upon the Lender’s lease pricing in effect at the time of such funding. There is approximately $602,000 outstanding as of June 30, 2022 and $712,000 outstanding at December 31, 2021.
We had a lease line of credit for equipment financing in the amount of $1,000,000 available until June 28, 2018. This line was non-revolving and non-renewable. The lease term for equipment covered by the lease line of credit is 60 months. Monthly payments are fixed for the term of each funding based upon the Lender’s lease pricing in effect at the time of such funding. There was approximately $34,000 outstanding at June 30, 2022 and $64,000 at December 31, 2021.
Management believes that it should retain the capital generated from operating activities for investment in research and development and programs to retain the Company’s human resources talent. Accordingly, there are no plans to institute a cash dividend within the next year.
We believe our cash generating capability and financial condition, together with available credit facilities will be adequate to meet our future operating and investing needs.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The Company carried out an evaluation under the supervision and with the participation of its management, including the Company’s Chief Executive Officer (“CEO”) and Chief Financial Officer (“CFO”), of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rule 13a-15(e) as of June 30, 2022. Based upon that evaluation, the CEO and CFO concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective due to the material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting reported in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
Changes in Internal Controls
As reported in the Company’s Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021, management identified certain control deficiencies that, individually and in the aggregate, constitute a material weakness in the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. The Company began its remediation efforts in 2021 and continues with its remediation plan which includes a comprehensive technology assessment by a third party, including the establishment and implementation of an information
- 26 -
technology strategy and improvement of its risk assessment and documentation over the monitoring of internal controls. Except for the implementation of the remediation plan, there have been no changes during the period covered by this report to the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to affect, the Company’s internal controls over financial reporting.
Notwithstanding the existence of the above-mentioned material weakness, the Company believes that the consolidated financial statements in this filing fairly present, in all material respects, the Company’s financial position, results of operations and cash flows as of the dates, and for the periods presented, in conformity with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles.
