Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)

(Dollars in Thousands, Except Share and Per Share Data)

1. Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policy Information

On April 30, 2010, a group of investors led by entities affiliated with CHS Capital LLC (“CHS”) and two other private equity firms (together with CHS, our “former private equity sponsors”) acquired a controlling interest in Thermon Holding Corp. and its subsidiaries from Thermon Holdings, LLC (“Predecessor”) for approximately $321,500 in a transaction that was financed by approximately $129,252 of equity investments by our former private equity sponsors and certain members of our current and former management team (collectively, the “management investors”) and $210,000 of debt raised in an exempt Rule 144A senior secured note offering to qualified institutional investors (collectively, the “CHS Transactions”). The proceeds from the equity investments and debt financing were used both to finance the acquisition and pay related transaction costs. As a result of the CHS Transactions, Thermon Group Holdings, Inc. became the ultimate parent of Thermon Holding Corp. Thermon Group Holdings, Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are referred to collectively as “we,” “our,” the “Company” or “Successor” herein.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the year ended March 31, 2014. In our opinion, the accompanying consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring items) considered necessary to present fairly our financial position at June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, and the results of our operations for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013. Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period presentation of our geographic operating income to conform to the current period presentation. The reclassifications had no effect on the reported sales or operating income in prior periods.

Use of Estimates

Generally accepted accounting principles ("GAAP") requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. While our management has based their assumptions and estimates on the facts and circumstances existing at June 30, 2014, actual results could differ from those estimates and affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosures of contingent assets and liabilities and the corresponding revenues and expenses as of the date of the financial statements. The operating results for the three months ended June 30, 2014 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

Revenue Recognition - In May 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-09 "Revenue from Contracts with Customers" (Topic 606), which supersedes almost all existing revenue recognition requirements and guidance. Under the new guidance, revenue is recognized when promised goods or services are transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration that is expected to be received for those goods or services. The new revenue standard may be applied retrospectively to each prior period presented or retrospectively with the cumulative effect recognized as of the date of adoption. Early adoption is not permitted. The standard will be adopted on April 1, 2017. We have not selected a transition method and we are currently evaluating the effect that the updated standard will have on our consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Stock Compensation - In June 2014, the Financial Accounting Standards Board issued Accounting Standards Update No. 2014-12 (Topic 718), which clarified the treatment of share-based payments when a performance target could be achieved after the requisite service period. Under the new guidance, compensation cost should be recognized over the requisite service period when it becomes probable that the performance target will be achieved. The total compensation cost recognized should reflect the number of awards that are expected to vest and should be adjusted to reflect those awards that ultimately vest. These provisions are effective for annual periods and interim periods within those years beginning on or after December 15, 2015. Early adoption is permitted. When adopted, we do not believe this update will have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2. Fair Value Measurements

Fair Value. We measure fair value based on authoritative accounting guidance, which defines fair value, establishes a framework for measuring fair value and expands on required disclosures regarding fair value measurements.

Inputs are referred to as assumptions that market participants would use in pricing the asset or liability. The uses of inputs in the valuation process are categorized into a three-level fair value hierarchy.


•	Level 1 — uses quoted prices in active markets for identical assets or liabilities we have the ability to access.


•	Level 2 — uses observable inputs other than quoted prices 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 — uses one or more significant inputs that are unobservable and supported by little or no market activity, and that reflect the use of significant management judgment.

Financial assets and liabilities with carrying amounts approximating fair value include cash, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, accrued expenses and other current liabilities. The carrying amount of these financial assets and liabilities approximates fair value because of their short maturities. At June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, no assets or liabilities were valued using Level 3 criteria.

Information about our long-term debt that is not measured at fair value is as follows:



	June 30, 2014				March 31, 2014
	Carrying Value		Fair Value		Carrying Value		Fair Value		Valuation Technique
Financial Liabilities
Long-term debt	$	118,125	$	118,125	$	121,500	$	121,500	Level 2 - Market Approach

At June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, the fair value of our variable rate term loan approximates its carrying value as we pay interest based on the current market rate. As the quoted price is only available for similar financial assets, the Company concluded the pricing is indirectly observable through dealers and has been classified as Level 2.

Foreign Currency Forward Contracts

We transact business in various foreign currencies and have established a program that primarily utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to offset the risk associated with the effects of certain foreign currency exposures. Under this program, increases or decreases in our foreign currency exposures are offset by gains or losses on the forward contracts to mitigate foreign currency transaction gains or losses. These foreign currency exposures typically arise from intercompany transactions. Our forward contracts generally have terms of 30 days. We do not use forward contracts for trading purposes or designate these forward contracts as hedging instruments pursuant to ASC 815. We adjust the carrying amount of all contracts to their fair value at the end of each reporting period and unrealized gains and losses are included in our results of operations for that period. These gains and losses largely offset gains and losses resulting from settlement of payments received from our foreign operations which are settled in U.S. dollars. The fair value is determined by quoted prices from active foreign currency markets (Level 2 fair value). The condensed consolidated balance sheets reflect unrealized gains within accounts receivable, net and unrealized losses within accrued liabilities. Our ultimate realized gain or loss with respect to currency fluctuations will depend on the currency exchange rates and other factors in effect as the contracts mature. As of June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014, the notional amounts of forward contracts were as follows:



Notional amount of foreign currency forward contracts by currency
	June 30, 2014		March 31, 2014
Russian Ruble	$	—	$	772
Euro	3,770		2,386
Canadian Dollar	2,373		—
South Korean Won	3,739		532
Indian Rupee	2,786		2,574
British Pound	1,201		201
Mexican Peso	697		1,077
Other	1,280		636
Total notional amounts	$	15,846	$	8,178

The following table represents the fair value of our foreign currency forward contracts:



	June 30, 2014				March 31, 2014
	Fair Value				Fair Value
	Assets		Liabilities		Assets		Liabilities
Foreign currency forward contracts	$	31	$	82	$	35	$	93

Foreign currency gains or losses related to our forward contracts in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income were gains of $33 and $165 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively. Gains and losses from our forward contracts were offset by transaction gains or losses incurred with the settlement of transactions denominated in foreign currencies. Our net foreign currency gains were $15 and $17 for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively.

Interest Rate Swap

During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap contract to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with its variable rate term loan. Under the agreement we will pay a fixed amount and receive or make payments based on a variable rate. Effective July 1, 2013, the Company designated the interest rate swap contract as a cash flow hedge pursuant to ASC 815. The Company formally documents all relationships between the hedging instrument and hedged item, its risk management objective and strategy, as well as counter-party creditworthiness. At each reporting period our interest rate swap contract is adjusted to fair value based on dealer quotes, which consider forward yield curves and volatility levels (Level 2 fair value). Unrealized gains, representing derivative assets, are reported within accounts receivable, net and unrealized losses, representing derivative liabilities, are reported within accrued liabilities on the accompanying condensed consolidated balance sheets. As of June 30, 2014, the fair value of the interest rate swap contract was an unrealized loss of $341. The change in fair value of the derivative instruments is recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income to the extent the derivative instruments are deemed effective. Ineffectiveness is measured based on the changes in fair value of the interest rate swap contract and the change in fair value of the hypothetical derivative and is recognized in earnings in the period in which ineffectiveness is realized. Based on the criteria established by ASC 815, the interest rate swap contract is deemed to be highly effective. Any realized gains or losses resulting from the interest rate swap contract are recognized within interest expense. Gains and losses from our interest rate swap contract are offset by changes in the variable interest rate on our term loan. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, our interest rate on outstanding principal amounts was fixed at approximately 3.62%. Effective July 1, 2014, our interest expense on outstanding principal was fixed at approximately 3.37% after taking into account the interest rate swap contract. We have hedged 100% of the outstanding principal on our variable rate term loan through April 2016. For the period from May 1, 2016 through April 30, 2018, interest payments on approximately $5,200 of average outstanding principal remain unhedged as of June 30, 2014, increasing to $49,780 for the period from May 1, 2018 to April 19, 2019.

The following table summarizes the aggregate unrealized loss in accumulated other comprehensive loss, and the losses reclassified into earnings for the three months ended June 30, 2014 (amounts in thousands):



	Three Months Ended June 30, 2014
Unrealized gain/(loss) at beginning of the period	$	(81	)
Add: gain/(loss) from change in fair value of cash flow hedge	(555		)
Less: Loss reclassified to earnings from effective hedge	(284		)
Less: ineffective portion of hedge transferred to earnings	(11		)
Unrealized loss at end of the period	$	(341	)

We did not have any interest rate swaps designated as hedging instruments pursuant to ASC 815 during the three months ended June 30, 2013.

Transfers out of accumulated other comprehensive loss

During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, there were no transfers out of accumulated other comprehensive loss except for realized losses from our interest rate swap contract presented in the preceding table, which were recorded within interest expense, and $11 related to hedge ineffectiveness.

3. Earnings and Net Income per Common Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") and net loss per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during each period. Diluted net income (loss) per share is computed by dividing net income (loss) by the weighted average number of common shares and common share equivalents outstanding (if dilutive) during each period. The number of common share equivalents, which includes options and both restricted and performance stock units, is computed using the treasury stock method. With regard to the performance stock units, we assumed that the target number of shares would be issued within the calculation of diluted net income per common share.

The reconciliations of the denominators used to calculate basic and diluted EPS for the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, respectively, are as follows:



	Three Months Ended June 30, 2014		Three Months Ended June 30, 2013
Basic net income (loss) per common share
Net income (loss)	$	11,534	$	(6,938	)
Weighted-average common shares outstanding	31,943,534		31,342,078
Basic net income (loss) per common share	$	0.36	$	(0.22	)



	Three Months Ended June 30, 2014		Three Months Ended June 30, 2013
Diluted net income (loss) per common share
Net income (loss)	$	11,534	$	(6,938	)
Weighted-average common shares outstanding	31,943,534		31,342,078
Common share equivalents:
Stock options	298,948		—
Restricted and performance stock units	97,455		—
Weighted average shares outstanding – dilutive (1)	32,339,937		31,342,078
Diluted net income (loss) per common share	$	0.36	$	(0.22	)

(1) For the three months ended June 30, 2014, 49,193 equity awards were not included in the calculation of diluted net income per common share since they would have had an anti-dilutive effect. For the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company was in a net loss position; therefore, 649,125 common stock equivalents were not included in the calculation of diluted loss per common share since they would have had an anti-dilutive effect.

4. Inventories

Inventories consisted of the following:



	June 30, 2014			March 31, 2014
Raw materials	$	11,310		$	12,036
Work in process	2,812			2,200
Finished goods	24,394			23,973
	38,516			38,209
Valuation reserves	(971		)	(893		)
Inventories, net	$	37,545		$	37,316

5. Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets

The carrying amount of goodwill as of June 30, 2014 is as follows:



	Amount
Balance as of March 31, 2014	114,112
Foreign currency translation impact	1,372
Balance as of June 30, 2014	$	115,484

The excess purchase price over the fair value of assets acquired is recorded as goodwill. Goodwill is tested for impairment on an annual basis, and between annual tests if indicators of potential impairment exist. We perform a qualitative analysis to determine whether it is more likely than not that the fair value of a reporting unit is less than its carrying amount, including goodwill. In addition to the qualitative analysis, we also perform a quantitative analysis using the income approach. Our annual impairment test will be performed during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year. At June 30, 2014, there were no indicators of a goodwill impairment. Goodwill is not deductible for tax purposes.

Other intangible assets consisted of the following:



	Gross Carrying Amount at June 30, 2014		Accumulated Amortization			Net Carrying Amount at June 30, 2014		Gross Carrying Amount at March 31, 2014		Accumulated Amortization			Net Carrying Amount at March 31, 2014

These amounts represent amounts due to the Predecessor owners in final settlement of the acquisition by our former private equity sponsors of a controlling interest in us that was completed on April 30, 2010. During the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, we made no payments to the Predecessor owners. At June 30, 2014, the remaining $567 outstanding represents remaining encumbered cash to be released as letters of credit expire.

Revolving Credit Facility and Senior Secured Debt

Credit facility. On June 11, 2014, we entered into the first amendment (the "Amendment") to our amended and restated credit agreement, executed April 19, 2013. The Amendment extended the maturity date of our variable rate secured term loan and $60,000 senior secured revolving credit facility, which we refer to collectively as our "credit facility," through April 19, 2019. Under the Amendment the fixed portion of our borrowing rate, which is dictated by our leverage ratio, was reduced by 0.25% and our payments on undrawn amounts on our senior secured revolving credit facility was reduced 0.05%. The interest payment reductions will be effective July 1, 2014 and June 11, 2014, respectively. The Amendment also changed the maximum leverage ratio permitted for each fiscal quarter ending on and after March 31, 2015 from 2.25 to 1.0 to 2.75 to 1.0.

Under our credit facility, in no case shall availability exceed commitments thereunder. The credit facility will mature in April 2019. Any credit facility borrowings will bear interest, at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) a base rate determined by reference to the greatest of (a) JPMorgan Chase Bank's prime rate in New York City, (b) the federal funds effective rate in effect on such day plus ½ of 1% and (c) the adjusted LIBOR rate for a one month interest period on such day plus 1%, in each case plus an applicable margin dictated by our leverage ratio, or (ii) the LIBOR rate, plus an applicable margin dictated by our leverage ratio. Borrowings denominated in Canadian Dollars under the Canadian sub-facility bear interest at our option, at a rate equal to either (i) a base rate determined by reference to the greater of (a) JPMorgan Chase Bank, Toronto branch's prime rate and (b) the sum of (x) the yearly interest rate to which the one-month Canadian deposit offered rate is equivalent plus (y) 1.0%, in each case plus an applicable margin dictated by our leverage ratio, or (ii) a Canadian deposit offered rate determined by the sum of (a) the annual rate of interest determined with reference to the arithmetic average of the discount rate quotations of all institutions listed in respect of the relevant period for Canadian dollar-denominated bankers' acceptances plus (b) 0.10% per annum, plus an applicable margin dictated by our leverage ratio. In addition to paying interest on outstanding borrowings under our credit facility, we are currently required to pay a 0.35% per annum commitment fee to the lenders in respect of the unutilized commitments thereunder, which commitment fee could change based on our leverage ratio, and letter of credit fees equal to the LIBOR margin or the Canadian deposit offered rate, as applicable, on the undrawn amount of all outstanding letters of credit, in addition to a 0.125% annual fronting fee. At June 30, 2014, we had no outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility. Had there been any outstanding borrowings thereunder, the interest rate would have been 2.69%. As of June 30, 2014, we had $59,137 of capacity available under our revolving credit facility after taking into account the borrowing base, outstanding loan advances and letters of credit. The variable rate term loan bears interest at the LIBOR rate plus an applicable margin dictated by our leverage ratio. As of June 30, 2014, our interest rate was 2.69%. The term loan includes monthly principal payments of $1,125 through March 31, 2017, increasing to $1,688 through the maturity date. The remaining $40,500 is due in April 2019.

Senior secured notes and refinancing under a term loan. On May 20, 2013, we utilized the proceeds from our variable rate term loan to redeem the remaining $118,145 of aggregate principal amount outstanding of our 9.5% senior secured notes. In conjunction with the redemption, we paid a total of $15,485 in call premiums and expensed the remaining $4,010 of associated deferred debt issuance costs. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, in connection with the Amendment we incurred $290 of fees, which we have deferred and will recognize as interest expense over the life of the term loan.

Interest rate swap. During the three months ended June 30, 2013, the Company entered into an interest rate swap to reduce the exposure to interest rate fluctuations associated with its variable rate term loan interest payments. Under the agreement we will pay a fixed amount and receive payments based on a variable interest rate. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, our interest rate on outstanding principal amounts was fixed at approximately 3.62%. Effective July 1, 2014 our interest expense on outstanding principal will be fixed at approximately 3.37% through April 2016. For the period from May 1, 2016 through April 30, 2018, interest payments based on the one month LIBOR rate on approximately $5,200 of average outstanding principal, remains unhedged as of June 30, 2014, increasing to $49,780 for the period from May 1, 2018 to April 19, 2019.

Guarantees; security. The obligations under our credit facility are guaranteed on a senior secured basis by each of our existing and future domestic restricted subsidiaries, including Thermon Industries, Inc., the U.S. borrower under our credit facility. The obligations under our credit facility are secured by a first priority perfected security interest in substantially all of our assets, subject to certain exceptions, permitted liens and encumbrances reasonably acceptable to the administrative agent under our credit facility.

Restrictive covenants. The credit facility contains various restrictive covenants that include restrictions or limitations on our ability to: incur additional indebtedness or issue disqualified capital stock unless certain financial tests are satisfied; pay dividends, redeem subordinated debt or make other restricted payments; make certain investments or acquisitions; issue stock of subsidiaries; grant or permit certain liens on our assets; enter into certain transactions with affiliates; merge, consolidate or transfer substantially all of our assets; incur dividend or other payment restrictions affecting certain of our subsidiaries; transfer or sell assets, including capital stock of our subsidiaries; and change the business we conduct. As of June 30, 2014, we were in compliance with all restrictive covenants of the credit facility.

10. Commitments and Contingencies

At June 30, 2014, the Company had in place letter of credit guarantees and performance bonds securing performance obligations of the Company. These arrangements totaled approximately $13,370. Of this amount, $1,429 is secured by cash deposits at the Company’s financial institutions. The remaining $11,941 represents a reduction of the available amount of the Company’s short term and long term revolving lines of credit and performance bonds that the Company has secured. Included in prepaid expenses and other current assets at June 30, 2014 and March 31, 2014 was approximately $1,429 and $1,307, respectively, of cash deposits pledged as collateral on performance bonds and letters of credit. Our Indian subsidiary also has $3,961 in customs bonds outstanding to secure the Company's customs and duties obligations in India.

The Company is involved in various legal and administrative proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of doing business. Some of these proceedings may result in fines, penalties or judgments being assessed against us,

which may adversely affect our financial results. In addition, from time to time, the Company is involved in various disputes, which may or may not be settled prior to legal proceedings being instituted and which may result in losses in excess of accrued liabilities, if any, relating to such unresolved disputes. As of June 30, 2014, management believes that adequate reserves have been established for any probable losses. Expenses related to litigation reduce operating income. We do not believe that the outcome of any of these proceedings or disputes would have a significant adverse effect on our financial position, long-term results of operations, or cash flows. It is possible, however, that charges related to these matters could be significant to our results of operations or cash flows in any one accounting period.

The Company has no outstanding legal matters outside of matters arising in the ordinary course of business, except as described below. We can give no assurances we will prevail in any of these matters.

Notice of Tax Dispute with the Canada Revenue Agency. On June 13, 2011, we received notice from the Canada Revenue Agency, which we refer to as the "Agency," advising us that they disagree with the tax treatment we proposed with respect to certain asset transfers that were completed in August 2007 by our Predecessor owners. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we were informed by the Agency that they had concluded their review in the Company's favor and would not make an assessment under Canada's General Anti Avoidance Rule.

Russia Tax Audit. Our income tax returns for the three years ended December 31, 2012 are subject to ongoing audits with the Russian tax authority. During our fiscal year ended March 31, 2014, we were issued an assessment by the Russian tax authority for which we have filed an objection. As of June 30, 2014, we have accrued $167 in our consolidated financial statements for the amount we believe to be payable to the Russian tax authority. See Note 12, “Income Taxes.”

11. Stock-Based Compensation Expense

Since the completion of the CHS Transactions on April 30, 2010, the board of directors has adopted and the shareholders have approved two stock option award plans. The 2010 Thermon Group Holdings, Inc. Restricted Stock and Stock Option Plan (“2010 Plan”) was approved on July 28, 2010. The 2010 Plan authorized the issuance of 2,767,171 stock options or restricted shares (on a post-stock split basis). On April 8, 2011, the board of directors approved the Thermon Group Holdings, Inc. 2011 Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2011 LTIP”). The 2011 LTIP made available 2,893,341 shares of the Company’s common stock that may be awarded to employees, directors or non-employee contractor's compensation in the form of stock options, restricted stock awards or restricted stock units.

At June 30, 2014, there were 494,791 options outstanding. For the three months ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, stock compensation expense was $556 and $366, respectively.

12. Income Taxes

For the three month periods ended June 30, 2014 and 2013, the Company recorded tax expense of $53 on pre-tax income of $11,587 and a tax benefit of $2,437 on pre-tax loss of $9,375, respectively. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, the Company released a deferred tax liability of $3,224 for taxes accrued on previously undistributed foreign earnings that are no longer expected to be repatriated. Our anticipated annual effective tax rate before discrete events is approximately 28.3% and has been applied to our consolidated pre-tax income for the three month period ended June 30, 2014.

As of April 1, 2013, we adopted a permanent reinvestment position whereby we expect to reinvest our foreign earnings for most of our foreign subsidiaries and do not expect to repatriate future earnings. As a result of the adoption of a permanent reinvestment position, we no longer accrue a tax liability in anticipation of future dividends from most of our foreign subsidiaries. The estimated annual effective tax rate for the fiscal year ending March 31, 2015 reflects the estimated taxable earnings of our various foreign subsidiaries and the applicable local tax rates, after accounting for certain permanent differences, such as nondeductible compensation expenses.

As of June 30, 2014, we have established a long-term liability for uncertain tax positions in the amount of $869. The Company recognizes related accrued interest and penalties as income tax expense and has accrued $15 for the three months ended June 30, 2014.

As of June 30, 2014, the tax years 2006 through 2013 remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions to which we are subject, except for the United States federal income tax returns, where the federal income tax returns for fiscal 2012 and 2013 remain open.

13. Geographic Information

We have defined our operating segments based on geographic regions. These regions share similar economic characteristics, product mix, customers and distribution methods. Accordingly, we have elected to aggregate these geographic regions into a single reportable segment.

Within our one reportable segment, we present additional detail for those countries or regions that generate significant revenue and operating income. For purposes of this note, revenue is attributed to individual countries or regions on the basis of the physical location and jurisdiction of organization of the subsidiary that invoices the material and services.

Total sales and income from operations are classified by major geographic area in which the Company operates are as follows:

Our forward-looking statements are not guarantees of future performance, and actual results and future performance may differ materially from those suggested in any forward-looking statements. We do not intend to update these statements unless we are required to do so under applicable securities laws.

Overview

We are one of the largest providers of highly engineered thermal solutions for process industries. For 60 years, we have served a diverse base of thousands of customers around the world in attractive and growing markets including energy, chemical processing and power generation. We are a global leader and one of the few thermal solutions providers with a global footprint and a full suite of products and services required to deliver comprehensive solutions to complex projects. We serve our customers locally through a global network of sales and service professionals and distributors in more than 30 countries and through our four manufacturing facilities on three continents. These global capabilities and longstanding relationships with some of the largest multinational energy, chemical processing, power and engineering, procurement and construction companies in the world have enabled us to diversify our revenue streams and opportunistically access high growth markets worldwide. During each of Interim 2015 and Interim 2014, approximately 68% of our revenues were generated outside of the United States.

Revenue. Our revenues are derived from providing customers with a full suite of innovative and reliable heat tracing solutions, including electric and steam heat tracing, tubing bundles, control systems, design optimization, engineering services and installation services. Our sales are primarily to industrial customers for petroleum and chemical plants, oil and gas production facilities and power generation facilities. Demand for industrial heat tracing solutions falls into two categories: (i) new facility construction, which we refer to as Greenfield projects, and (ii) recurring maintenance, repair and operations and facility upgrades or expansions, which we refer to as MRO/UE. Greenfield construction projects often require comprehensive heat tracing solutions. We believe that Greenfield revenue consists of sales revenues by a customer in excess of $1 million for the preceding twelve month period (excluding sales to resellers), and typically includes most orders for projects related to facilities that are new or that are built independent of existing facilities. We refer to sales revenues by a customer of less than $1 million for the preceding twelve month period, which we believe are typically derived from MRO/UE, as MRO/UE revenue. Based on our experience, we believe that $1 million in annual sales is an appropriate threshold for distinguishing between Greenfield revenue and MRO/UE revenue. However, we often sell our products to intermediaries or subcontract our services; accordingly, we have limited visibility into how our products or services may ultimately be used and can provide no assurance that our categorization may accurately reflect the sources of such revenue. Furthermore, our customers do not typically enter into long-term forward maintenance contracts with us. In any given year, certain of our smaller Greenfield projects may generate less than $1 million in annual sales, and certain of our larger plant expansions or upgrades may generate in excess of $1 million in annual sales, though we believe that such exceptions are few in number and insignificant to our overall results of operations.

We believe that our pipeline of planned projects, in addition to our backlog of signed purchase orders, provides us with strong visibility into our future revenue, as historically we have experienced few order cancellations, and the cancellations that have occurred in the past have not been material compared to our total contract volume or total backlog. The small number of order cancellations is attributable in part to the fact that a large portion of our solutions are ordered and installed toward the end of Greenfield project construction. Our backlog at June 30, 2014 was $97.8 million which reflects a recent upward trend due to increased Greenfield booking activity. The timing of recognition of revenue out of backlog is not always certain, as it is subject to a variety of factors that may cause delays, many of which are beyond our control (such as customers’ delivery schedules and levels of capital and maintenance expenditures). When delays occur, the recognition of revenue associated with the delayed project is likewise deferred.

Cost of sales. Our cost of sales includes primarily the cost of raw material items used in the manufacture of our products, cost of ancillary products that are sourced from external suppliers and construction labor cost. Additional costs of sales include contract engineering cost directly associated with projects, direct labor cost, external sales commissions, and other costs associated with our manufacturing/fabrication operations. The other costs associated with our manufacturing/fabrication operations are mainly indirect production costs, including depreciation, indirect labor costs, and the costs of manufacturing support functions such as logistics and quality assurance. Key raw material costs include polymers, copper, stainless steel, insulating material, and other miscellaneous parts related to products manufactured or assembled as part of our heat tracing solutions. Historically, the costs of our primary raw materials have been stable and readily available from multiple suppliers, and we generally have been successful with passing along raw material cost increases to our customers. Therefore, increases in the cost of key raw materials of our products have not generally affected our gross margins. We cannot provide any assurance, however, that we may be able to pass along such cost increases to our customers in the future, and if we are unable to do so, our results of operations may be adversely affected.

Operating expenses. Our marketing, general and administrative and engineering expenses are primarily comprised of compensation expense and related costs for sales, marketing, pre-sales engineering and administrative personnel, as well as other sales related expenses and other costs related to research and development, insurance, professional fees, the global integrated business information system, provisions for bad debts and warranty expense.

Key drivers affecting our results of operations. Our results of operations and financial condition are affected by numerous factors, including those described under the caption “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC on May 30, 2014 and elsewhere in this quarterly report and those described below:

•

Timing of Greenfield projects. Our results of operations in recent years have been impacted by the various construction phases of large Greenfield projects. On very large projects, we are typically designated as the heat tracing provider of choice by the project owner. We then engage with multiple contractors to address incorporating various heat tracing solutions throughout the overall project. Our largest Greenfield projects may generate revenue for several quarters. In the early stages of a Greenfield project, our revenues are typically realized from the provision of engineering services. In the middle stages, or the material requirements phase, we typically experience the greatest demand for our heat tracing cable, at which point our revenues tend to accelerate. Revenues tend to decrease gradually in the final stages of a project and are generally derived from installation services and demand for electrical panels and other miscellaneous electronic components used in the final installation of heat tracing cable, which we frequently outsource from third-party manufacturers. Therefore, we typically provide a mix of products and services during each phase of a Greenfield project, and our margins fluctuate accordingly.

•

Cyclicality of end-users’ markets. Demand for our products and services depends in large part upon the level of capital and maintenance expenditures of our customers and end users, in particular those in the energy, chemical processing and power generation industries, and firms that design and construct facilities for these industries. These customers’ expenditures historically have been cyclical in nature and vulnerable to economic downturns. Greenfield projects, and in particular large Greenfield projects (i.e., new facility construction projects generating in excess of $5 million in annual sales), have been a substantial source of revenue growth in recent years, and Greenfield revenues tend to be more cyclical than MRO/UE revenues. A sustained decrease in capital and maintenance spending or in new facility construction by our customers could have a material adverse effect on the demand for our products and services and our business, financial condition and results of operations.

•

Impact of product mix. Typically, both Greenfield and MRO/UE customers require our products as well as our engineering and construction services. The level of service and construction needs will affect the profit margin for each type of revenue. We tend to experience lower margins from our design optimization, engineering, installation and maintenance services than we do from sales of our heating cable, tubing bundle and control system products. We also tend to experience lower margins from our outsourced products, such as electrical switch gears and transformers, than we do from our manufactured products. Accordingly, our results of operations are impacted by our mix of products and services.

We estimate that Greenfield and MRO/UE have each made the following contribution as a percentage of revenue in the periods listed:



	Three Months Ended June 30,
	2014		2013
Greenfield	32	%	39	%
MRO/UE	68	%	61	%

We believe that our analysis of Greenfield and MRO/UE is an important measurement to explain the trends in our business to investors. Greenfield revenue is an indicator of both our ability to successfully compete for new capital projects as well as the economic health of the industries we serve. Furthermore, Greenfield revenue provides a foundation for potential MRO/UE revenue in future years.

For MRO/UE orders, the sale of our manufactured products typically represents a higher proportion of the overall revenues associated with such orders than the provision of our services. Greenfield projects, on the other hand, require a higher level of our services than MRO/UE orders. Therefore, we typically realize higher margins from MRO/UE revenues than Greenfield revenues.

•

Large and growing installed base. Customers typically use the incumbent heat tracing provider for MRO/UE projects to avoid complications and compatibility problems associated with switching providers. Recently, we have experienced an upward trend in MRO/UE revenue. For Interim 2015 and 2014, MRO/UE sales comprised approximately 68% and 61% of our consolidated revenues, respectively. We attribute this recent MRO/UE

growth to our established installed base of customers especially with regard to mid-sized upgrade and expansion projects.


•	Seasonality of MRO/UE revenues. Revenues realized from MRO/UE orders tend to be less cyclical than Greenfield projects and more consistent quarter over quarter, although MRO/UE revenues are impacted by seasonal factors. MRO/UE revenues are typically highest during the second and third fiscal quarters, as most of our customers perform preventative maintenance prior to the winter season.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2014 (“Interim 2015”) Compared to the Three Months Ended June 30, 2013 (“Interim 2014”)

Revenues. Revenues for Interim 2015 were $67.7 million compared to $65.6 million in Interim 2014, an increase of $2.1 million or 3.2%. Our MRO/UE revenue in interim 2015 increased $6.5 million or 16% over Interim 2014 and Greenfield revenue declined $4.4 million or 17% over the same period. Our Greenfield revenue includes the reduction of a large project in Canada that is now in the final stages of completion. On a standalone basis, the reduction of revenue for this project was $8.9 million between Interim 2014 and 2015. Excluding the impact of this project, both Greenfield and MRO/UE sales volume increased during Interim 2015. Our increased sales in MRO/UE reflects the continued activity of our customers in both petroleum and chemical markets as they engage in sizable upgrade and expansion on existing facilities in addition to our growing global installed base.

In Interim 2015, revenues grew $1.2 million, $3.1 million and $0.6 million in the United States, Asia and Europe, respectively, as compared to Interim 2014. The increase in demand within the United States is largely attributable to investments in the petrochemical markets along the Gulf Coast, as well as demand driven by the proliferation of hydraulic fracturing methods to extract natural gas within North America. In Asia we experienced growth due mostly to a few Greenfield projects. Europe was relatively flat with revenue increases largely attributable to favorable foreign currency rate fluctuations. In Canada, our revenue declined $2.9 million in Interim 2015 as compared to Interim 2014. As mentioned above, Canada was negatively impacted by an $8.9 million reduction in a large Greenfield project that is nearing completion in Interim 2015 as compared to Interim 2014. Adjusting for the impact of this large project, Canadian revenues would have increased $6.0 million or 24% over the same period.

Foreign currency negatively impacted revenues by $0.6 million in Interim 2015 based on the difference in the weighted-average foreign exchange rates in effect during Interim 2015 and Interim 2014. The foreign currency impact on revenues was primarily attributable to the depreciation of the Canadian Dollar relative to the US Dollar, partially offset by the appreciation of the Euro and several Asian currencies relative to the US Dollar.

Gross profit and margin. Gross profit totaled $33.8 million in Interim 2015, compared to $31.0 million in Interim 2014, an increase of $2.8 million or 9.1%. The increase in gross profit is due to increased sales as well as improved gross margins which were 50.0% and 47.3% in Interim 2015 and Interim 2014, respectively. The gross margin improvement is due to a higher proportion of MRO/UE revenue in Interim 2015 which typically generates higher profit margins than Greenfield sales. MRO/UE sales as a percentage of total revenues were 68% and 61% in Interim 2015 and Interim 2014, respectively.

Marketing, general and administrative and engineering. Marketing, general and administrative and engineering costs (including stock compensation expense) were $18.3 million for Interim 2015, compared to $16.2 million in Interim 2014, an increase of $2.1 million or 13.4%. Marketing, general and administrative and engineering costs, excluding stock compensation expense, were 26.3% of total revenues in Interim 2015 as compared to 24.1% in Interim 2014. The increases are primarily due to the increase in personnel costs of $1.4 million, which includes $0.6 million of increased incentive costs as we met or exceeded internal targets for the annual bonus plan approved by our Board of Directors, and, to a lesser degree, due to small increases in research and development, advertising costs and the allowance for bad debt. Stock compensation expense was $0.2 million higher in Interim 2015, due to the issuance of additional awards in the second quarter of Fiscal 2014 which resulted in incremental stock compensation expense.

Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets was $2.8 million in both Interim 2015 and Interim 2014. Intangible asset amortization is subject to foreign currency translation adjustments. We expect these amounts to be representative of our quarterly expense for amortization of intangible assets for the foreseeable future.

Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net, was $1.2 million in Interim 2015, compared to $21.5 million in Interim 2014, a decrease of $20.3 million. The decrease in interest expense is primarily attributable to the redemption of all outstanding 9.5% senior secured notes in Interim 2014. In connection with the redemption of our senior secured notes, we incurred an acceleration of deferred debt issuance costs of $4.0 million and a loss on retirement of debt of $15.5 million. Interest on outstanding principal balances was $1.2 million in Interim 2015 compared to $1.8 million in Interim 2014, a decrease of $0.6 million. The decrease in interest expense is largely attributable to the reduction of the interest rate on our long term debt. Our senior secured notes, which were redeemed in Interim 2014, accrued interest at a rate of 9.5% and the interest rate on our current credit facility, whose interest rate was fixed at 3.62% during Interim 2015.

During Interim 2015, we executed the first amendment to our credit facility, which reduced our fixed portion of our LIBOR rate borrowings by 0.25%, effective July 1, 2014. With our interest rate swap contract we expect our interest rate to be fixed at approximately 3.37% and our interest expense to be approximately $1.0 million after accounting for scheduled principal reductions. Amortization of deferred debt issuance costs represents the remaining $0.1 million of interest expense in Interim 2015.

Income taxes. We reported an income tax expense of $53 thousand in Interim 2015 from our pre-tax income of $11.6 million, compared to an income tax benefit of $2.4 million in Interim 2014 on pre-tax loss of $9.4 million, an increase of $2.5 million. During Interim 2015 and in conjunction with the amendment of our credit facility, we released $3.2 million of deferred tax liabilities for previously undistributed foreign earnings we no longer expect to repatriate. The release of the deferred tax liabilities reduced our tax expense accordingly. Without this discrete event, our tax expense would have been $3.3 million or 28.3% which is our estimated effective tax rate for fiscal year 2015. Our estimated effective tax rate before discrete events in Interim 2014 was 26.0%. The effective tax rate increased in Interim 2015 due to higher expected taxable income in the United States which previously had a taxable loss in Interim 2014 due to the refinancing of our senior secured notes.

Our anticipated annual effective tax rate of approximately 28.3% has been applied to our consolidated pre-tax income in calculating the amount of income tax expense for Interim 2015. This anticipated annual tax rate is established by estimating

anticipated tax rates in each of the countries where we earn taxable income as adjusted for known differences as well as our ability to apply any jurisdictional tax losses to prior or future periods. See Note 12, “Income Taxes,” to our unaudited consolidated financial statements included elsewhere in this quarterly report, for further detail on income taxes.

Net income (loss). Our net income was $11.5 million in Interim 2015 as compared to a net loss of $6.9 million in Interim 2014, an increase of $18.4 million. The increase in net income is mostly due to the reduction of interest expense which in Interim 2014 included $19.5 million of retirement costs associated with the redemption of our 9.5% senior secured notes. In Interim 2015 we had higher gross profit of $2.8 million due to increased sales and a higher proportion of higher margin MRO/UE sales as a percentage of total revenues. Reduced interest expense and improved gross profit were offset in part by higher marketing, general and administrative and engineering expenses (including stock compensation expense) of $2.2 million and income tax expense of $2.5 million.

(3)	We enter into operating leases in the normal course of business. Our operating leases include the leases on certain of our manufacturing and warehouse facilities, in addition to certain offices of our affiliates.


(4)	Consists of estimated amounts owed to sellers in the CHS Transactions for restricted cash in satisfaction of the post-closing adjustment for remaining encumbered cash to be released as letters of credit expire.


(5)	Represents the future annual service fees associated with certain information technology service agreements with several vendors.

Contingencies. The Company is involved in various legal and administrative proceedings that arise from time to time in the ordinary course of doing business. Some of these proceedings may result in fines, penalties or judgments being assessed against us, which may adversely affect our financial results. In addition, from time to time, the Company is involved in various disputes, which may or may not be settled prior to legal proceedings being instituted and which may result in losses in excess of accrued liabilities, if any, relating to such unresolved disputes. As of June 30, 2014, management believes that adequate reserves have been established for any probable losses. Expenses related to litigation reduce operating income. We do not believe that the outcome of any of these proceedings or disputes would have a significant adverse effect on our financial position, long-term results of operations, or cash flows. It is possible, however, that charges related to these matters could be significant to our results of operations or cash flows in any one accounting period.

Notice of Tax Dispute with the Canada Revenue Agency. On June 13, 2011, we received notice from the Canada Revenue Agency, which we refer to as the "Agency", advising us that they disagree with the tax treatment we proposed with respect to certain asset transfers that were completed in August 2007 by our Predecessor owners. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we were informed by the Agency that they had concluded their review in our favor and would not make an assessment under Canada's General Anti Avoidance Rule.

Russia Tax Audit. Our income tax returns for the three years ended December 31, 2012 are subject to ongoing audits with the Russian tax authority. During fiscal 2014, we were issued an assessment by the Russian tax authority for which we will file an objection. As of March 31, 2014, we have accrued $167 in our consolidated financial statements for the amount we believe to be payable to the Russian tax authority. See Note 12, “Income Taxes.”

To bid on or secure certain contracts, we are required at times to provide a performance guaranty to our customers in the form of a surety bond, standby letter of credit or foreign bank guaranty. At June 30, 2014, we had in place standby letters of credit, bank guarantees and performance bonds totaling $13.4 million to support our various customer contracts. Our Indian subsidiary also has $4.0 million in customs bonds outstanding to secure the Company's customs duties obligations in India.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and funds available under our revolving credit facility and other revolving lines of credit. Our primary liquidity needs are to finance our working capital, capital expenditures and debt service needs.

Cash and cash equivalents. At June 30, 2014, we had $77.3 million in cash and cash equivalents. We maintain cash and cash equivalents at various financial institutions located in many countries throughout the world. Approximately $21.7 million, or 28% of these amounts were held in domestic accounts with various institutions and approximately $55.6 million, or 72%, of these amounts were held in accounts outside of the United States with various financial institutions.

Credit facility and senior secured notes.

See Note 9, “Long-Term Debt—Revolving Credit Facility and Senior Secured Debt” to our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included above in Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited) of this quarterly report for information on our revolving credit facility and senior secured debt, which is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2. At June 30, 2014, we had no borrowings under our revolving credit facility and $59,137 of available capacity thereunder, after taking into account the borrowing base, outstanding loan advances and letters of credit. From time to time, we may choose to utilize our revolving credit facility to fund operations or investments despite having cash available within our consolidated group in light of the cost, timing and other business considerations.

As of June 30, 2014, we had $118.1 million outstanding on our variable rate term loan. The first amendment of the amended and restated credit agreement requires monthly principal payments of $1.1 million through March 31, 2017. Thereafter, monthly principal payments increase to $1.7 million through the remaining term of the loan with a lump-sum payment of $40.5 million due at maturity in April 2019.

Repatriation considerations. A substantial portion of our cash flows are generated by our non-U.S. subsidiaries. In general, when an entity in a foreign jurisdiction repatriates cash to the United States, the amount of such cash is treated as a dividend taxable at current U.S. tax rates. Accordingly, upon the distribution of cash to us from our non-U.S. subsidiaries, we will be subject to U.S. income taxes. Although foreign tax credits may be available to reduce the amount of the additional tax liability, these credits may be limited based on our tax attributes.

We believe that domestic U.S. cash flow will be able to service our future debt obligations. We adopted a permanent reinvestment position whereby we expect to reinvest our foreign earnings for most of our foreign subsidiaries and do not expect to repatriate future earnings generated by most of our foreign operations. As a result of this change, we will no longer accrue deferred tax liabilities in anticipation of future dividends from those foreign subsidiaries. If we were to repatriate foreign earnings, we would incur additional income tax expense. During Interim 2015, we released $3.2 million of deferred tax liabilities for previously undistributed foreign earnings that we no longer expect to repatriate.

Future capital requirements. Based on our current level of operations, we believe that cash flow from operations and available cash, together with available borrowings under our revolving credit facility, will be adequate to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months. We cannot assure you, however, that our business will generate sufficient cash flow from

operations or that future borrowing will be available to us in an amount sufficient to enable us to service our indebtedness, including our credit facility borrowings, or to fund our other liquidity needs. In addition, upon the occurrence of certain events, such as a change of control, we could be required to repay or refinance our indebtedness. We cannot assure you that we will be able to refinance any of our indebtedness, including the variable rate term loan or our credit facility, on commercially reasonable terms or at all.

Net cash provided by operating activities totaled $6.1 million for Interim 2015, compared to $6.2 million provided in Interim 2014. Net income was $11.5 million in Interim 2015, whereas Interim 2014 had net loss of $6.9 million, an increase of $18.4 million. The net loss in Interim 2014 was substantially the result of $15.5 million of call premiums paid for the redemption of our senior secured notes. This use of cash incurred with the redemption of our senior secured notes is added back to operating activities and reduced from financing activities to more accurately reflect cash provided by operations in Interim 2014. When adjusting for the $15.5 million premium on the redemption of our senior secured notes, our net income in Interim 2015 would have represented an increase of $3.0 million. Non-cash reconciling items such as depreciation and amortization, amortization of debt costs, stock compensation expense, changes in deferred taxes, and other non-cash items amounted to $0.2 million and $3.2 million in Interim 2015 and Interim 2014, respectively, a decrease of $3.0 million. The decrease in the source of cash in Interim 2015 is primarily a result of a $4.0 million acceleration of deferred debt issuance costs as a result of the redemption of our senior secured notes, which occurred in Interim 2014. The comparative decrease in the source of cash was partially offset by a comparative $0.9 million improvement in our deferred income tax balances. In Interim 2015, our assets increased representing a use of cash of $8.1 million and in Interim 2014 our assets decreased representing a source of cash of $4.6 million, a comparative decrease of $12.7 million. The decrease is primarily attributable to the timing of the collections of our outstanding accounts receivable balances. During Interim 2015, our combined balances of accrued liabilities and payables increased, representing a source of cash of $2.9 million and in Interim 2014 accrued liabilities and payables decreased, representing a use of cash $10.7 million, thereby resulting in an increase of cash provided by operating activities of $13.6 million in Interim 2015 compared to Interim 2014. The use of cash in Interim 2014 to settle outstanding obligations was due to the settlement of our $4.7 million accrued interest balance, the payout of $3.8 million in the fiscal 2013 short term incentive bonuses and a reduction of customer prepayments of $1.2 million. The comparative change in our income tax payable balance represented a comparative use of cash of $0.3 million in Interim 2015.

Net cash used in investing activities totaled $0.8 million and $0.6 million for Interim 2015 and Interim 2014, respectively. In both periods the use of cash is fully attributable to purchases of property, plant and equipment.

Net cash used in financing activities totaled $2.0 million used in Interim 2015 and $3.2 million used in Interim 2014 reflecting a decrease in the use of cash of $1.2 million. In both periods, the use of cash is primarily attributable to payments made on our variable rate term loan, which was $3.4 million in both periods. In Interim 2014, we paid $15.5 million in prepayment call premiums in connection with the redemption of $118.1 million of aggregate principal of our senior secured notes. The senior secured note redemption was financed by $135.0 million of credit facility borrowings, from which we incurred $1.7 million of deferred debt issuance costs. During Interim 2015 and Interim 2014, we received $0.3 million and $0.5 million from stock option exercises, respectively. In Interim 2015 we received a benefit of $1.4 million related to excess tax deductions from stock option exercises. As we did not have pre-tax income within the United States during Interim 2014, we did not receive a tax benefit in that period.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

As of June 30, 2014, we do not have any off balance sheet arrangements. In addition, we do not have any interest in entities referred to as variable interest entities, which includes special purposes entities and other structured finance entities.

Effect of Inflation

While inflationary increases in certain input costs, such as wages, have an impact on our operating results, inflation has had minimal net impact on our operating results during the last three years, as overall inflation has been offset by increased selling prices and cost reduction actions. We cannot assure you, however, that we will not be affected by general inflation in the future.

Critical Accounting Polices

See Part I, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations—Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2014 for a discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1, “Basis of Presentation and Accounting Policy Information” to our unaudited interim condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included above in Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited) of this quarterly report for information on recent accounting pronouncements, which is hereby incorporated by reference into this Item 2.

Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risk

Our primary market risk exposures are the effect of fluctuations in foreign exchange rates, interest rates and commodity prices.

Foreign currency risk relating to operations. We transact business globally and are subject to risks associated with fluctuating foreign exchange rates. Approximately 68% of our Interim 2015 consolidated revenue was generated by sales from

our non-U.S. subsidiaries. Our non-U.S. subsidiaries generally sell their products and services in the local currency, but obtain a significant amount of their products from our facilities located in another country, primarily the United States, Canada or Europe. Significant changes in the relevant exchange rates could adversely affect our margins on foreign sales of products. Our non-U.S. subsidiaries incur most of their expenses (other than intercompany expenses) in their local functional currency. These currencies include the Canadian Dollar, Euro, British Pound, Russian Ruble, Australian Dollar, South Korean Won, Chinese Renminbi, Indian Rupee, Mexican Peso and Japanese Yen.

During Interim 2015, our largest exposures to foreign exchange rates consisted primarily of the Canadian Dollar and the Euro against the U.S. Dollar. The market risk related to the foreign currency exchange rates is measured by estimating the potential impact of a 10% change in the value of the U.S. Dollar relative to the local currency exchange rates. The rates used to perform this analysis were based on a weighted average of the market rates in effect during the relevant period. A 10% appreciation of the U.S. Dollar relative to the Canadian Dollar would result in a decrease in net income of $0.4 million for Interim 2015. Conversely, a 10% depreciation of the U.S. Dollar relative to the Canadian Dollar would result in an increase in net income of $0.4 million for Interim 2015. A 10% appreciation of the U.S. Dollar relative to the Euro would result in a decrease in net income of $28.0 thousand for Interim 2015. Conversely, a 10% depreciation of the U.S. Dollar relative to the Euro would result in an increase in net income of $28.0 thousand for Interim 2015.

The geographic areas outside the United States in which we operate are generally not considered to be highly inflationary. Nonetheless, these foreign operations are sensitive to fluctuations in currency exchange rates arising from, among other things, certain intercompany transactions that are generally denominated in U.S. Dollars rather than their respective functional currencies. The net impact of foreign currency transactions on our condensed consolidated statements of operations were gains of $15 thousand and $17 thousand in Interim 2015 and Interim 2014, respectively.

As of June 30, 2014, we had approximately $15.8 million in notional forward contracts to purchase U.S. Dollars in exchange for foreign currencies on a pre-determined future date. These forward contracts were in place to offset in part the foreign currency exchange risk to intercompany payables due from our foreign operations to be settled in U.S. Dollars. See Note 2, “Fair Value Measurements” to our unaudited interim condensed financial statements and accompanying notes thereto included above in Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited) of this quarterly report for further information regarding our foreign currency forward contracts, as described below.

Because our consolidated financial results are reported in U.S. Dollars, and we generate a substantial amount of our sales and earnings in other currencies, the translation of those results into U.S. Dollars can result in a significant decrease in the amount of those sales and earnings. In addition, fluctuations in currencies relative to the U.S. Dollar may make it more difficult to perform period-to-period comparisons of our reported results of operations. For Interim 2015, we estimate that our sales were negatively impacted by $0.6 million as compared to foreign exchange translation rates that were in effect in Interim 2014. The negative impact was primarily attributed to the appreciation of the U.S. Dollar relative to the Canadian Dollar, offset by the depreciation of the U.S. Dollar relative to the Euro and several Asian currencies. At each balance sheet date, we translate our assets and liabilities denominated in foreign currency to U.S. Dollars. The balances of our foreign equity accounts are translated at their historical value. The difference between the current rates and the historical rates are posted to our currency translation account and reflected in the shareholders’ equity section of our condensed consolidated balance sheets. The unrealized effect of foreign currency translation was a gain of $4.6 million in Interim 2015, compared to a loss of $4.0 million in Interim 2014. Currency translation gains or losses are reported as part of comprehensive income or loss which is after net income in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (unaudited). As discussed above, foreign currency transactions gains and losses are the result of the settlement of payables and receivables in foreign currency. These gains or losses are included in net income or loss as part of miscellaneous income in the condensed consolidated statements of comprehensive income (unaudited).

Interest rate risk and foreign currency risk relating to debt. The interest rate for the variable rate term loan was 2.69% as of June 30, 2014. During Interim 2014, we entered into an interest rate swap agreement which fixed our interest payments on outstanding principal. As a result of the amendment to our variable rate term loan, effective July 1, 2014 we expect our interest rate to be fixed at approximately 3.37% through April 2016. For the period from May 1, 2016 through April 30, 2018, interest payments based on the one month LIBOR rate on approximately $5.2 million of average outstanding principal remains unhedged as of June 30, 2014, increasing to $49.8 million for the period from May 1, 2018 to April 19, 2019. During Interim 2015, our interest rate was fixed at approximately 3.62%. Borrowings on our revolving credit facility will incur interest expense that is variable in relation to the LIBOR rate. At June 30, 2014, the interest rate on amounts outstanding on our revolving credit facility would have been approximately 2.69%, had there been any borrowings outstanding. During the three months ended June 30, 2014, we did not draw on our revolving credit facility. Based on historical balances on our revolving credit facility, we do not anticipate that a one percent increase or decrease in our interest rate would have a significant impact on our operations. We cannot provide any assurances that historical revolver borrowings (if any) will be reflective of our future use of the revolving credit facility.

As of June 30, 2014, we had $118.1 million of outstanding principal on our variable rate LIBOR-based term loan. Based on the outstanding borrowings, a 1% change in the interest rate would result in a $1.1 million increase or decrease in our annual interest expense. Although we cannot provide assurance, we believe that the increase or decrease in interest rates will be largely offset by gains or losses from our variable to fixed interest rate swap.

Commodity price risk. We use various commodity-based raw materials in our manufacturing processes. Generally, we acquire such components at market prices and do not typically enter into long-term purchase commitments with suppliers or hedging instruments to mitigate commodity price risk. As a result, we are subject to market risks related to changes in commodity prices and supplies of key components of our products. Historically, the costs of our primary raw materials have been stable and readily available from multiple suppliers. Typically, we have been able to pass on raw material cost increases to our customers. We cannot provide any assurance, however, that we may be able to pass along such cost increases to our customers or source sufficient amounts of key components on commercially reasonable terms or at all in the future, and if we are unable to do so, our results of operations may be adversely affected.

Item 4. Controls and Procedures

Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of its disclosure controls and procedures pursuant to Rule 13a-15(b) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 (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, these disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that information required to be disclosed in the reports filed or submitted under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms, and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the last fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
