Thermon Group Holdings, Inc.
 
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
(Dollars in thousands, except share and per share data)
 
1. Basis of Presentation
Thermon Group Holdings, Inc. and its direct and indirect subsidiaries are referred to collectively as “we,” “our,” or the “Company” herein. We are one of the largest providers of highly engineered industrial process heating solutions for process industries. We offer a full suite of products (heating units, heating cables, industrial heating blankets and related products, temporary power solutions and tubing bundles), services (engineering, installation and maintenance services) and software (design optimization and wireless and network control systems) required to deliver comprehensive solutions to some of the world's largest and most complex projects.
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States ("GAAP") and the requirements of the United States Securities and Exchange Commission ("SEC") for interim financial information. Accordingly, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all disclosures required for full annual financial statements and should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 ("fiscal 2023"). In our opinion, the accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments considered necessary to present fairly our financial position at September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, and the results of our operations for the three and six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022.
Use of Estimates
Generally accepted accounting principles 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 management has based its assumptions and estimates on the facts and circumstances existing at September 30, 2023, 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 and six months ended September 30, 2023, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be achieved for fiscal 2024.
Restricted Cash and Cash Equivalents
    The Company maintains restricted cash related to certain letter of credit guarantees and performance bonds securing performance obligations. The following table provides a reconciliation of cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and restricted cash included in other non-current assets reported within the condensed consolidated balance sheets that sum to the total of the same such amounts shown in the statements of cash flows.
September 30, 2023March 31, 2023
Cash and cash equivalents$30,532 $35,635 
Restricted cash included in prepaid expenses and other current assets2,365 2,859 
Restricted cash included in other non-current assets35 26 
Total cash, cash equivalents, and restricted cash shown in the statements of cash flows$32,932 $38,520 
    Amounts shown in restricted cash included in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other non-current assets represent those required to be set aside by a contractual agreement, which generally contain cash deposits pledged as collateral on performance bonds and letters of credit. Amounts shown in restricted cash in other non-current assets represent such agreements that require a commitment term longer than one year.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
Business Combinations - In October 2021, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2021-08, Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers. This update requires an acquirer in a business combination to recognize and measure contract assets and contract liabilities (deferred revenue) from acquired contracts using the revenue recognition guidance in Accounting Standards Codification, or "ASC," 606. Under this "ASC 606 approach," the acquirer applies the revenue model as if it had originated the contracts. This is a departure from the current requirement to measure contract assets and contract liabilities at fair value. The ASU is effective for all public business entities in annual and interim periods starting after December 15, 2022, and early adoption is permitted. We adopted this standard on April 1, 2023, and the adoption did not have a material impact on our consolidated financial statements.

2. Acquisition
Powerblanket
On May 31, 2022, (the "Acquisition Date"), Thermon Holding Corp., as buyer, acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding equity interests of Powerblanket (“Powerblanket”) from Glacier Capital LLC, as seller (the "Acquisition"). Powerblanket is a leading North American supplier of heated blankets built upon patented heat spreading technology. The Acquisition increases our exposure to growing industrial and commercial end-markets through its freeze protection, temperature control and flow assurance solutions. We have integrated Powerblanket into our United States and Latin America ("US-LAM") reportable segment.
The initial purchase price for the Acquisition was $35,000, subject to an adjustment for net working capital acquired at closing. Subsequent to the Acquisition Date, and commensurate with the purchase agreement, we increased the purchase price by $299 for net working capital acquired. We financed the Acquisition through the use of our Revolving Credit Facility as well as cash on hand. Powerblanket's revenue structure does not result in material contract assets or liabilities.
Acquisition Costs
In accordance with GAAP, costs incurred to complete the Acquisition are expensed as incurred. Total acquisition costs, which represent transaction costs, legal fees, and third-party professional fees were $278, of which $126 were recognized in fiscal 2023. No costs related to the Acquisition have been recognized in fiscal 2024. Acquisition costs are reflected in "Selling, general and administrative expenses" in our condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income/(loss).
Purchase Price Allocation
We have accounted for the Acquisition according to the business combinations guidance found in ASC 805, Business Combinations, henceforth referred to as acquisition accounting. Acquisition accounting requires, among other things, that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair values as of the acquisition date. We used primarily Level 2 inputs to allocate the purchase price to the major categories of assets and liabilities shown below, with the exception of the contract-based intangible asset, which was valued using Level 3 inputs. For valuing the customer relationships intangible asset, we used a common income-based approach called the multi-period excess earnings method; for the trademarks and developed technology intangible assets, we used a relief-from-royalty method; and for the contract-based intangible asset, we used the with and without method. The carrying values of inventories, property, plant and equipment as well as leased assets approximated their respective fair values at the time of closing.

3. 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 use 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 and cash equivalents, 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 September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, no assets or liabilities were valued using Level 3 criteria, except for those acquired in our recent acquisition of Powerblanket, discussed in Note 2, "Acquisition."

At September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, the fair value of our long-term debt is based on market quotes available for issuance of debt with similar terms. 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.
Additionally, we acquired certain assets and liabilities as disclosed in Note 2, "Acquisition" at fair value according to purchase price accounting.
Deferred Compensation Plan
9


    The Company provides a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for certain highly compensated employees where payroll contributions are made by the employees on a pre-tax basis. Included in “Other non-current assets” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023 were $7,103 and $6,350, respectively, of deferred compensation plan assets held by the Company. Deferred compensation plan assets (mutual funds) are measured at fair value on a recurring basis based on quoted market prices in active markets (Level 1). The Company has a corresponding liability to participants of $6,400 and $5,671 included in “Other non-current liabilities” in the condensed consolidated balance sheets at September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, respectively. Deferred compensation plan expense/(income) is included as such in the condensed consolidated statement of operations, and therefore is excluded from "Selling, general and administrative expenses." Deferred compensation plan expense/(income) was $(247) and $(303) for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $26 and $(963) for the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Expenses and income from our deferred compensation plan were offset by unrealized gains and losses for the deferred compensation plan included in "Other income/expense" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income/(loss). Our unrealized losses and (gains) on investments were $234 and $296, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, and $(50) and $934 for the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively.
Trade Related Foreign Currency Forward Contracts
We transact business in various foreign currencies and have established a program that primarily utilizes foreign currency forward contracts to address 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 arise from intercompany transactions as well as third party accounts receivable or payable that are denominated in foreign currencies. 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 "Other income/(expense)" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income/(loss). These gains and losses are designed to offset gains and losses resulting from settlement of receivables or payables by our foreign operations which are settled in currency other than the local transactional currency. The fair value is determined by quoted prices from active foreign currency markets (Level 2). Fair value amounts for such forward contracts on our condensed consolidated balance sheets are either classified as accounts receivable, net or accrued liabilities depending on whether the forward contract is in a gain (accounts receivable, net) or loss (accrued liabilities) position. 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 September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, the notional amounts of forward contracts were as follows:
Notional amount of foreign currency forward contracts by currency
September 30, 2023March 31, 2023
Canadian Dollar$2,500 $4,500 
South Korean Won2,000 1,500 
Mexican Peso1,500 — 
Chinese Renminbi— 500 
Great Britain Pound— 500 
Total notional amounts$6,000 $7,000 
In the three and six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, foreign currency gains or losses related to our forward contracts in the accompanying condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income/(loss) were losses of $(148) and $(252), respectively, and a gain of $28 and a loss of $(612), 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. In the three and six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, our net foreign currency transactions resulted in losses of $(38) and $(37), respectively, and $(13) and $(333), respectively.
4. Restructuring and Other Charges/(Income)
Fiscal 2024 charges/(income)
As a result of the continued impact of the Russo-Ukrainian war, including the sanctions related thereto, the Company commenced a strategic assessment of its operations in its Russian subsidiary. On January 31, 2023, our board of directors authorized the Company to withdraw from its operations in the Russian Federation (the “Russia Exit”), through a planned disposition of its Russian subsidiary. In fiscal 2023, we moved the assets related to our Russian subsidiary into a separate asset group deemed as "assets held-for-sale," and wrote down the related net assets to a nominal value. In the three and six months
10


ended September 30, 2023, pursuant to requirements to remeasure the assets-held-for-sale, we recognized total charges related to the Russia Exit of $304 and $885, respectively, recorded to "Restructuring and other charges/(income)" on our condensed consolidated statement of operations and comprehensive income/(loss). This brings the total charge from fiscal 2023 and fiscal 2024 associated with the Russia Exit to $13,282.
All charges described above were recorded in our Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") reportable segment.
5. Net Income per Common Share
The reconciliations of the denominators used to calculate basic and diluted net income per common share for the three and six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively, are as follows:
 Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 Three Months Ended September 30, 2022Six Months Ended September 30, 2023Six Months Ended September 30, 2022

(1) For the three months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, zero and 36,310, respectively, were not included in the calculation of diluted net income per common share, as they would have had an anti-dilutive effect. For the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 1,633 and 113,559 equity awards, respectively, were not included in the calculation of diluted net income per common share, as they would have had an anti-dilutive effect.
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 assume that the associated performance targets will be met at the target level of performance for purposes of calculating diluted net income per common share until such time that it is probable that actual performance will be above or below target.

Balance as of September 30, 2023$81,345 $113,054 $18,157 $6,308 $218,864 
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. If required, we also perform a quantitative analysis using the income approach, based on discounted future cash flows, which are derived from internal forecasts and economic expectations, and the market approach, which is based on market multiples of guideline public companies. The most significant inputs in the Company's quantitative goodwill impairment tests are projected financial information, the weighted average cost of capital and market multiples for similar transactions. Our annual impairment test is performed during the fourth quarter of our fiscal year.

Senior Secured Credit Facilities
On September 29, 2021, Thermon Group Holdings, Inc. as a credit party and a guarantor, Thermon Holding Corp. (the “US Borrower”) and Thermon Canada Inc. (the “Canadian Borrower” and together with the US Borrower, the “Borrowers”), entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement with several banks and other financial institutions or entities from time to time and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent, ("the Agent") which was further amended on November 19, 2021 and March 7, 2023.
The Credit Agreement is an amendment and restatement of that certain Credit Agreement dated October 30, 2017, by and among Borrowers, the lenders party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent (the “Prior Credit Agreement”), and provides for the following credit facilities described below (collectively, the “Facilities”).
Revolving Credit Facility: A USD $100,000 five-year secured revolving credit facility made available to the U.S. Borrower. The Revolving Credit Facility includes sub-limits for letters of credit and swing-line loans (the “Revolving Credit Facility”).
U.S. Term Loan Facility: A USD $80,000 five-year secured term loan A (the “U.S. Term Loan”) made available to the U.S. Borrower (the “U.S. Term Loan Facility”); and
Canadian Term Loan Facility: A CAD $76,182 five-year term loan A (the “Canadian Term Loan” and, together with the U.S. Term Loan, the “Term Loans”) made available to the Canadian Borrower (the “Canadian Term Loan Facility,” and together with the U.S. Term Loan Facility, the “Term Loan Facilities”).
Proceeds of the Facilities were used at closing to repay and refinance the Borrowers’ existing indebtedness under the Prior Credit Agreement and pay all interest, fees and expenses related thereto, and thereafter are expected to be used for working capital and general corporate purposes.
The Credit Agreement allows for incremental term loans and incremental revolving commitments in an amount not to exceed USD $100,000.
Maturity and Repayment
Each of the Facilities terminates on September 29, 2026. Each of the Term Loans will amortize as set forth in the table below, with payments on the first day of each January, April, July and October, with the balance of each Term Loan Facility due at maturity.
Installment DatesOriginal Principal Amount
January 1, 2022 through October 1, 20221.25 %
January 1, 2023 through October 1, 20241.88 %
January 1, 2025 through July 1, 20262.50 %
Guarantees
The U.S. Term Loan and the obligations of the U.S. Borrower under the Revolving Credit Facility are guaranteed by the Company and all of the U.S. Borrower’s current and future wholly owned domestic material subsidiaries (the “U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors”), subject to certain exceptions. The Canadian Term Loan is guaranteed by the Company, the U.S. Borrower, the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors and each of the wholly owned Canadian material subsidiaries of the Canadian Borrower, subject to certain exceptions.
Security
The U.S. Term Loan and the obligations of the U.S. Borrower under the Revolving Credit Facility are secured by a first lien on all of the assets of the Company, the U.S. Borrower and the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors, including 100% of the capital stock of the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors and 65% of the capital stock of the first tier material foreign subsidiaries of the Company, the U.S. Borrower and the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors, subject to certain exceptions. The Canadian Term Loan is secured by a first lien on all of the assets of the Company, the U.S. Borrower, the U.S. Subsidiary Guarantors, the Canadian
13


Borrower and the material Canadian subsidiaries of the Canadian Borrower, including 100% of the capital stock of the Canadian Borrower’s material Canadian subsidiaries.
Financial Covenants
In connection with the Credit Agreement, the Company is required, on a consolidated basis, to maintain certain financial covenant ratios. On the last day of any period of four fiscal quarters ending during a period set forth below, the Company must maintain a consolidated leverage ratio that does not exceed the ratios for such period set forth below (each of which ratios may be increased by 0.50:1.00 for each of the four fiscal quarters following certain acquisitions at the election of the U.S. Borrower):
Fiscal Quarter EndingConsolidated Leverage Ratio
December 31, 2022, and each fiscal quarter thereafter
3.5:1.00
In addition, on the last day of any period of four fiscal quarters ending on or after September 30, 2021, the Company must maintain a consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.25:1.00. As of September 30, 2023, we were in compliance with all financial covenants of the Credit Agreement.
Other Covenants
The Credit Agreement contains restrictive covenants (in each case, subject to certain exclusions) that limit, among other things, the ability of the Company and its subsidiaries (including the Borrowers) to incur additional indebtedness, grant liens, make fundamental changes, sell assets, make restricted payments, enter into sales and leasebacks, make investments, prepay certain indebtedness, enter into transactions with affiliates, and enter into restrictive agreements.
The covenants are subject to various baskets and materiality thresholds, with certain of the baskets to the restrictions on the repayment of subordinated or unsecured indebtedness, restricted payments and investments being available only when the Company’s pro forma leverage ratios are less than a certain level.
The Credit Agreement contains certain customary representations and warranties, affirmative covenants and events of default, including, among other things, payment defaults, breach of representations and warranties, covenant defaults, cross-defaults to certain indebtedness, certain events of bankruptcy, certain events under ERISA, judgment defaults, actual or asserted failure of any guaranty or security documents to be in full force and effect and change of control. If such an event of default occurs, the Agent will be entitled to take various actions, including the termination of the commitment for the Revolving Credit Facility, the acceleration of amounts due under the Credit Agreement and certain other actions that a secured creditor is customarily permitted to take following a default.
    At September 30, 2023, we had $27,500 in outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. We had $70,099 of available borrowing capacity thereunder after taking into account the borrowing base and $2,401 of outstanding letters of credit and the outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility as of September 30, 2023. The Term Loans bear interest at the Secured Overnight Financing Rate ("SOFR"), or Canadian Dollar Offer Rate ("CDOR"), as applicable, in each case plus an applicable margin dictated by our leverage ratio (as described above). The interest rates on the Term Loan Facilities on September 30, 2023 were 6.73% for the Canadian Term Loan Facility, 6.68% for the U.S. Term Loan Facility, and 6.68% for the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility. Interest expense has been presented net of interest income on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income/(loss).
10. Commitments and Contingencies
Legal Proceedings and Other Contingencies
We are 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, we are 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 September 30, 2023, we have established an estimated liability associated with the aforementioned disputes. 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 reporting period.
In January 2020, the Company received service of process in a class action application in the Superior Court of Quebec, Montreal, Canada related to certain heating elements previously manufactured by Thermon Heating Systems and incorporated into certain portable construction heaters sold by certain manufacturers. The Company believes this claim is without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself against the claim. While the Company continues to dispute the allegations, in March 2021, it reached an agreement in principle with the plaintiff and other defendants to resolve this matter without
14


admitting to any liability; such agreement remains subject to the agreement of the parties on the terms of a definitive settlement agreement. Settlement of this matter on the agreed terms will require the Company to contribute an amount that would not have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows. The settlement is subject to, among other things, approval by the Superior Court.
Letters of Credit and Bank Guarantees
At September 30, 2023, the Company had in place letter of credit guarantees and performance bonds securing certain performance obligations of the Company. These arrangements totaled $17,948. Of this amount, $1,284 is secured by cash deposits at the Company’s financial institutions and an additional $2,401 represents a reduction of the available amount of the Company's short-term and long-term revolving lines of credit. In addition to the arrangements totaling $17,948, our Indian subsidiary also has $4,423 in non-collateralized customs bonds outstanding to secure the Company's customs and duties obligations in India.
11. Revenue
Disaggregation of Revenue
We disaggregate our revenue from contracts with customers by geographic location, as well as revenues recognized at point in time and revenues recognized over time, as we believe these best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
Revenue recognized at a point-in-time based on when control transfers to the customer is generally related to our product sales. Point-in-time revenue does not typically require engineering or installation services. Revenue recognized over time occurs on our projects where engineering or installation services, or a combination of the two, are required. We recognize revenue related to such projects in a systematic way that reflects the transfer of goods or services, or a combination of goods and services, to the customer.
Disaggregation of revenues from contracts with customers for the three and six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022 is as follows:

Performance Obligations
    At September 30, 2023, revenues to be recorded associated with our open performance obligations totaled $166,869. Within this amount, approximately $13,988 will be earned as revenue in excess of one year. We expect to recognize the remaining revenues associated with unsatisfied or partially satisfied performance obligations within 12 months.
Contract Assets and Liabilities
15


    As of September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, contract assets were $27,259 and $16,272, respectively. As of September 30, 2023 and March 31, 2023, contract liabilities were $7,261 and $8,483, respectively. We typically recognize revenue associated with our contract liabilities within 12 months.
12. Income Taxes
Our effective income tax rate was 23.8% and 26.2% for the six months ended September 30, 2023 and 2022, respectively. The Company recorded a discrete tax benefit of $197 in the six months ended September 30, 2023, and a discrete tax expense of $343 related to various matters in the six months ended September 30, 2022. The discrete tax items for both periods include realized stock compensation and the foreign exchange impact of certain deferred tax matters.
As of September 30, 2023, we have established a long-term liability for uncertain tax positions in the amount of $1,001. As of September 30, 2023, the tax years for the fiscal years ended March 31, 2018 through March 31, 2023, remain open to examination by the major taxing jurisdictions.
13. Segment Information
We maintain four reportable segments based on four geographic countries or regions in which we operate: (i) United States and Latin America ("US-LAM"), (ii) Canada, (iii) Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA") and (iv) Asia-Pacific ("APAC"). Within our four reportable segments, our core products and services are focused on the following markets: chemical and petrochemical, oil, gas, power generation, commercial, food and beverage, rail and transit, and other, which we refer to as our "key end markets." We offer a full suite of products (heating units, heating cables, industrial heating blankets and related products, temporary power solutions and tubing bundles), services (engineering, installation and maintenance services) and software (design optimization and wireless and network control systems) required to deliver comprehensive solutions to some of the world's largest and most complex projects. Profitability within our segments is measured by operating income. Profitability can vary in each of our reportable segments based on the competitive environment within the region, the level of corporate overhead, such as the salaries of our senior executives and the level of research and development and marketing activities in the region, as well as the mix of products and services. 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 to external customers, inter-segment sales, depreciation expense, amortization expense, income from operations, property, plant and equipment, net and total assets for each of our four reportable segments are as follows:

Business Overview and Company History
We are one of the largest providers of highly engineered industrial process heating solutions for process industries. For over 65 years, we have served a diverse base of thousands of customers around the world in attractive and growing markets, including chemical and petrochemical, oil, gas, power generation, commercial, food and beverage, rail and transit, and other, which we refer to as our "key end markets." We offer a full suite of products (heating units, heating cables, industrial heating blankets and related products, temporary power solutions and tubing bundles), services (engineering, installation and maintenance services) and software (design optimization and wireless and network control systems) required to deliver comprehensive solutions to some of the world's largest and most complex projects. With a legacy of innovation and continued investment in research and development, Thermon has established itself as a technology leader in hazardous or classified areas, and we are committed to developing sustainable solutions for our customers. We serve our customers through a global network of sales and service professionals and distributors in more than 30 countries and through our nine manufacturing facilities on two continents. These global capabilities and longstanding relationships with some of the largest multinational oil, gas, chemical processing, power and engineering, procurement and construction ("EPC") companies in the world have enabled us to diversify our revenue streams and opportunistically access high growth markets worldwide. During YTD 2024 and YTD 2023, approximately 52% and 59%, respectively, of our revenues were generated from outside of the United States.
Revenue.  Our revenues are derived from providing customers with a full suite of innovative and reliable process heating solutions, including advanced heating and filtration solutions for industrial and hazardous area applications. Revenue recognized at a point in time based on when control transfers to the customer is generally related to our product sales. Point in time revenue does not typically require engineering or installation services. Revenue recognized over time occurs on our projects where engineering or installation services, or a combination of the two, are required. We recognize revenue related to such projects in a systematic way that reflects the transfer of goods or services, or a combination of goods and services, to the customer.
19


We maintain four reportable segments based on four geographic countries or regions in which we operate: (i) United States and Latin America ("US-LAM"), (ii) Canada, (iii) Europe, Middle East and Africa ("EMEA"), and (iv) Asia-Pacific ("APAC").
We believe that our pipeline of planned projects, in addition to our backlog of written contractual commitments received from customers, provides us with some visibility into our future revenue. 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 large project construction. Our backlog at September 30, 2023, was $166.9 million, as compared to $163.3 million at March 31, 2023. 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 primarily includes the costs of raw material items used in the manufacturing of our products, costs of ancillary products that are sourced from external suppliers and construction labor cost. Additional costs of sales include contract engineering costs directly associated to projects, direct labor costs, shipping and handling costs, and other costs associated with our manufacturing/fabrication operations. The other costs associated with our manufacturing/fabrication operations are primarily indirect production costs, including depreciation, indirect labor costs, warranty-related 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. Raw material costs have been stable over the years; however, we may face challenges from time to time with temporary shortages related to global supply chain issues, such as those that persisted during the COVID-19 pandemic which led to shortages in certain raw materials as well as an increase in costs of these materials due to use of alternate suppliers, higher freight costs, increased lead times, expedited shipping and other inflationary factors. We cannot provide any assurance that we will continue to mitigate temporary raw material shortages or be able to pass along such cost increases, including the potential impacts of tariffs or supply chain challenges, 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 selling, general and administrative expenses ("SG&A") are primarily comprised of compensation and related costs for sales, marketing, pre-sales engineering and administrative personnel, plus other sales related expenses as well as other costs related to research and development, insurance, professional fees, the global integrated business information system, and provisions for credit losses. In addition, our deferred compensation expense includes a non-qualified deferred compensation plan for certain highly compensated employees where payroll contributions are made by the employees on a pre-tax basis. The expense/income associated with our deferred compensation plan is titled "Deferred compensation plan expense/(income)" on our condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income/(loss).
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 for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, filed with the SEC on May 25, 2023, and in any subsequent Quarterly Reports on Form 10-Q that we have filed or may file with the SEC, including those described below. These factors include the following:
Impact of product mix. Typically, our customers require our products as well as our engineering and construction services. The level of service and construction needs affect the profit margin for each type of revenue.
We tend to experience lower margins from our design optimization, engineering, installation and maintenance services, which are typically large projects tied to our customers' capex budgets and are comprised of more than $0.5 million in total revenue. For clarity, we will refer to these as "Over time large projects." Our results of operations in recent years have been impacted by the various construction phases of Over time 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 projects may generate revenue for several quarters. In the early stages of an Over time large 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.
Projects which do not require installation and maintenance services are smaller in size and representative of maintenance, repairs and small upgrades necessary to improve efficiency and uptime. These small projects are typically tied to our customers operating expense budgets with improved profit margins, and are generally less than $0.5 million in total revenue. We will refer to such projects as "Over time small projects."
20


The most profitable of our sales are derived from selling our heating products, for which we recognize revenue at a point in time. 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 Point in time and Over time revenues have each made the following contribution as a percentage of total revenue in the periods listed:
Three Months Ended September 30,Six months ended September 30,
 2023202220232022
Point in time59 %62 %60 %62 %
Over time:41 %38 %40 %38 %
Small projects12 %15 %13 %15 %
Large projects29 %23 %27 %23 %
Our Over time revenue includes (i) products and services which are billed on a time and materials basis, and (ii) fixed fee contracts for complex turnkey solutions. For our time and materials service contracts, we recognize revenues as the products and services are provided over the term of the contract and have determined that the stated rate for installation services and products is representative of the stand-alone selling price for those services and products.
Our turnkey projects, or fixed fee projects, offer our customers a comprehensive solution for heat tracing from the initial planning stage through engineering/design, manufacture, installation and final proof-of-performance and acceptance testing. Turnkey services also include project planning, product supply, system integration, commissioning and on-going maintenance. Turnkey solutions, containing multiple deliverables, are customer specific and do not have an alternative use and present an unconditional right to payment, and thus are treated as a single performance obligation with revenues recognized over time as work progresses.
For revenue recognized under fixed fee turnkey contracts, we measure the costs incurred that contribute towards the satisfaction of our performance obligation as a percentage of the total cost of production (the “cost-to-cost method”), and we recognize a proportionate amount of contract revenue, as the cost-to-cost method appropriately depicts performance towards satisfaction of the performance obligation. Changes to the original cost amount may be required during the life of the contract and such estimates are reviewed on a regular basis. Sales and gross profits are adjusted using the cumulative catch-up method for revisions in estimated contract costs. Reviews of estimates have not generally resulted in significant adjustments to our results of operations.
Point in time revenue represents goods transferred to customers at a point in time and is recognized when obligations under the terms of the contract with the customer are satisfied; generally this occurs with the transfer of control upon shipment.
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, oil, gas, 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. Large projects historically have been a substantial source of revenue growth, and large project revenues tend to be more cyclical than maintenance and repair 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.
Acquisition strategy. In recent years, we have been executing on a strategy to grow the Company through the acquisition of businesses that are either in the process heating solutions industry or provide complementary products and solutions for the markets and customers we serve. Refer to Note 2, "Acquisition," for more discussion of our Powerblanket acquisition.
Recent Developments
As a result of the continued impact of the Russo-Ukrainian war, including the sanctions related thereto, the Company commenced a strategic assessment of its operations in the Russian Federation, and, on January 31, 2023, our board of directors authorized the Company to withdraw from its operations in the Russian Federation (the “Russia Exit”), through a planned disposition of its Russian subsidiary. As previously disclosed, in fiscal 2023, we recorded total charges of $12.6 million related to the Russia Exit as well as $0.2 million in transaction costs to prepare for the disposal of the subsidiary. During YTD 2024,
21


we recorded an additional $0.9 million of charges associated with the Russia Exit, as well as $0.3 million transaction costs. We expect to complete the Russia Exit in our third fiscal quarter 2024, subject to the receipt of the requisite regulatory approvals.
The Company continues to invest in our three long-term strategic initiatives. First, we expect to continue to diversify our revenues into adjacent markets like commercial, food & beverage, transportation and other non-oil and gas industries where we can continue to differentiate our offerings through quality, safety and customer service, while also aligning Thermon’s strategy around the energy transition toward a more sustainable global economy. Second, we believe a multi-decades investment trend is beginning to emerge based on the rapidly increasing desire for industrial customers to electrify equipment to reduce their carbon footprint, which represents an opportunity for the Company to leverage its leading expertise in heat transfer engineering solutions. We believe that Thermon's expertise will be a key factor in a successful, sustainable transition, and we expect to invest in additional resources to quickly respond to changing customer demand. Finally, we expect to continue expanding our technology-enabled maintenance solutions, like our recently launched Genesis Network, which helps our customers more efficiently and safely monitor and maintain their heating systems by utilizing our software, analytics, hardware and process heating maintenance expert services. Our efforts to diversify the business's end markets are starting to show early signs of success through increased customer engagement in diversified end markets such as rail and transit, food and beverage, commercial and power. Additionally, we are continuing to receive orders from key customers related to our recently launched Genesis Network technology, with the number of installed circuits using Genesis Network accelerating in the most recent fiscal year. We are benefiting from the increasing global demand for our solutions, particularly in North America.

Three Months Ended September 30, 2023 (“Interim 2024”) Compared to the Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 (“Interim 2023”)
Revenues. Revenues increased in Interim 2024 across all segments, particularly in our US-LAM and EMEA reportable segments, which grew revenues $16.4 million, or 34%, and $3.9 million, or 40%, respectively, compared to Interim 2023. Particularly strong demand in our US-LAM segment was further bolstered by an increase in projects activity in Interim 2024. In our APAC segment, revenues increased by $1.5 million, or 17%, compared to Interim 2023. Revenue in our Canada segment also grew $1.4 million, or 4%, in Interim 2024 compared to Interim 2023. Separately, foreign exchange rates negatively impacted revenues in Interim 2024 by $1.2 million as the U.S. dollar strengthened relative to the Company's foreign currency-denominated operations.
Point in time revenues in Interim 2024 were $72.6 million, or 59% of total sales, while Over time revenues were $51.0 million, or 41% of total sales. This compares to 62% Point in time revenues and 38% Over time revenues in Interim 2023. Refer to the "Overview" section above for definitions of Point in time and Over time revenue. Both types of revenue grew, with Over time growing at a faster rate as revenue mix shifted toward projects in Interim 2024 compared to Interim 2023.
23


Gross profit and margin. The higher gross profit in Interim 2024 is primarily attributable to a higher volume of sales, while gross margin decreased, mainly due to a shift of our revenue mix to projects from relatively higher-margin materials, or Point in time, sales.
Selling, general and administrative expenses. The increase in SG&A expenses in Interim 2024 was driven by greater sales activity resulting in higher salaries and benefits and sales commissions. SG&A as a percent of sales was 24.7% in Interim 2024 versus 27.6% in Interim 2023. This decrease in SG&A as a percent of sales was attributable to a marked increase in sales coupled with with prudent cost management initiatives.
Deferred compensation plan expense/(income). The decrease in deferred compensation plan income in Interim 2024 is attributable in part to market fluctuations in the underlying balances as compared to Interim 2023. To note, this compensation plan expense/(income) is materially offset in other income/(expense) where the Company records market gains/(losses) on the related investment assets. Refer to Note 3, "Fair Value Measurements," for more information.
Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets in Interim 2024 was nearly flat when compared to Interim 2023.
Restructuring and other charges/(income). Restructuring and other charges/(income) were $0.3 million in Interim 2024 and zero in Interim 2023. Refer to Note 4, "Restructuring and Other Charges/(Income)" for more information.
Interest expense, net. The increase in interest expense is primarily due to a higher average interest rate during Interim 2024, which was approximately 6.57% versus approximately 3.39% during Interim 2023, partially offset by a lower debt balance in Interim 2024 of approximately $112 million versus $147 million at Interim 2023. See Note 9, "Debt," for additional information on our long-term debt.
Other income/(expense). The decrease in other expense is primarily due to fluctuations in the Company's non-qualified deferred compensation plan than in the prior year due to market fluctuations. These losses are materially offset by increased deferred compensation plan income as noted above.
Income tax expense. Income tax expense was $4.8 million in Interim 2024 on pre-tax income of $19.5 million compared to income tax expense of $3.3 million in Interim 2023 on pre-tax income of $14.3 million, an increase of $1.5 million. Our effective tax rate was 24.4% and 23.2% in Interim 2024 and Interim 2023, respectively. In Interim 2023, the Company's effective tax rate was impacted nominally by the discrete tax benefit of the foreign exchange impact of certain deferred tax matters. Refer to Note 12, “Income Taxes,” for additional detail.
Net income. The change in net income is explained by the changes noted in the sections above.

Six Months Ended September 30, 2023 (“YTD 2024”) Compared to the Six Months Ended September 30, 2022 (“YTD 2023”)
Revenues. Revenue increased in YTD 2024 compared to YTD 2023 due to strong demand in all segments. US-LAM revenue increased $24.3 million, or 26%, while Canada revenue increased $4.5 million, or 7%. Also contributing to the increase was the EMEA segment, which experienced sales growth of $3.5 million, or 18%, as well as our APAC segment, which grew $2.3 million, or 14%. The strong demand for projects, particularly in our US-LAM segment, impacted the revenue performance during YTD 2024. Separately, revenue was negatively impacted in YTD 2024 by foreign exchange rates of approximately $3.3 million as the U.S. dollar strengthened relative to the Company's foreign currency-denominated operations.
Point in time revenue and Over time revenue comprised 60% and 40% of sales in YTD 2024, respectively, and 62% and 38% in YTD 2023, respectively.
Gross profit and margin. Gross profit increased $18.6 million on greater sales volumes and greater profitability with gross margin improving by 170 bps. Although mix towards relatively lower-margin Over time revenue impacted margins, YTD 2024 gross margin was enhanced by customer price increases as well as operational efficiencies.
25


Selling, general and administrative expensesSelling, general and administrative expenses increased $7.0 million in YTD 2024 compared to YTD 2023 driven mainly by expenses associated with greater sales activity, including higher headcount and related salaries, as well as professional fees.
Deferred compensation plan expense/(income). Deferred compensation plan expense/(income) generated income in YTD 2024 due to market fluctuations in the underlying balances owed to employees. This compensation plan expense/(income) is materially offset in other income/(expense), where the Company recorded market gains/(losses) on related investment assets. Refer to Note 3, "Fair Value Measurements," for more information.
Restructuring and other charges/(income). Restructuring and other charges/(income) was $0.9 million in YTD 2024 and zero in YTD 2023. The activity in YTD 2024 was due to the Russia Exit. Refer to Note 4, "Restructuring and Other Charges/(Income)" for more information.
Amortization of intangible assets. Amortization of intangible assets was nearly flat when compared to YTD 2023. Activity within these accounts is driven by periodic straight-line amortization of our acquired intangibles. Refer to Note 2, "Acquisition" for more information.
Interest expense, net. Interest expense, net increased in YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 due primarily to higher average interest rates (6.25% in YTD 2024 versus 3.06% in YTD 2023), partially offset by a lower average debt balance ($112 million in YTD 2024 versus $136 million in YTD 2023). Refer to Note 9, "Debt," for more information on our outstanding debt.
Other income/(expense). The change in Other income/(expense) in YTD 2024 is attributable to market fluctuations in the underlying investments associated with our non-qualified deferred compensation plan. These unrealized gains and losses on investments were materially offset by deferred compensation plan expense/(income) as noted above.
    Income taxes. Income tax expense was $8.0 million in YTD 2024 on pre-tax income of $33.7 million compared to income tax expense of $6.2 million in YTD 2023 on pre-tax income of $23.8 million, an increase of $1.8 million in income tax expense. Our effective tax rate was 23.8% and 26.2% in YTD 2024 and YTD 2023, respectively. The Company's effective tax rate was impacted nominally by discrete tax items such as realized stock compensation and the foreign exchange impact of certain deferred tax matters. Refer to Note 12, “Income Taxes,” for additional detail.
Net income. The change in net income is explained by the changes noted above.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our primary sources of liquidity are cash flows from operations and funds available under our revolving credit facility. Our primary liquidity needs are to finance our working capital, capital expenditures, debt service needs and potential future acquisitions. 
At September 30, 2023, we had $30.5 million in cash and cash equivalents and $70.1 million available under our revolving line of credit facility. We manage our global cash requirements by maintaining cash and cash equivalents at various financial institutions throughout the world where we operate. Approximately $5.6 million, or 18%, of these amounts were held in domestic accounts with various institutions and approximately $24.9 million, or 82%, of these amounts were held in accounts outside of the United States with various financial institutions. While we require cash needs at our various foreign operations, excess cash is available for distribution to the United States through intercompany dividends or debt reduction in Canada. Please refer to Note 1, "Basis of Presentation," for more information regarding our restricted cash.
Generally, we seek to maintain a cash and cash equivalents balance between $30.0 and $40.0 million. We will encounter periods where we may be above or below this range, due to, for example, inventory buildup for anticipated seasonal demand in fall and winter months, related cash receipts from credit sales in months that follow, debt maturities, restructuring activities, larger capital investments, severe and/or protracted economic downturns, acquisitions, or some combination of the above activities. The Company continues to manage its working capital requirements effectively through optimizing inventory levels, doing business with credit-worthy customers, and extending payments terms with its supplier base.
Future Cash Requirements
Our future capital requirements depend on many factors as noted throughout this report. We believe that, based on our current level of operations and related cash flows, plus cash on hand and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility, we will be able to meet our liquidity needs for the next twelve months and the foreseeable future. We had $27.5 million
26


of borrowings outstanding on our revolving credit facility at September 30, 2023. Although subject to change and not required by our Credit Facility, we intend to pay back the outstanding balance within the next twelve months. Please refer to Note 2, "Acquisition," for more information regarding our acquisition.
For fiscal 2024, we expect our capital expenditures to approximately 3.0% of revenue. Additionally, we expect to pay $10.2 million in principal payments on our long-term debt, as well as $3.4 million related to our leased assets in the next twelve months. See further details in Note 9, "Debt," in Part I, Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited) of this quarterly report. We also have payment commitments of $7.2 million, mostly related to long-term information technology contracts, of which $5.5 million is due within the next twelve months.

(1) "Free Cash Flow" is a non-GAAP financial measure, which we define as net cash provided by operating activities less cash used for the purchase of property, plant, and equipment, net of sales of rental equipment and proceeds from sales of land and buildings. Free Cash Flow is one measure management uses internally to assess liquidity. Our calculation may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
Operating Cash Flows
Operating cash flows decreased in YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 primarily due to investment of cash in working capital accounts of approximately $15 million, particularly related to changes in timing of billings on certain project-related contracts in our net contract assets given the increase in project-related activity, partially offset by higher net income of approximately $8 million.
Investing Cash Flows
Cash used in investing decreased in YTD 2024 as compared to YTD 2023 primarily due to the cash paid to acquire Powerblanket recorded in YTD 2023 with no similar activity in YTD 2024, slightly offset by higher capital expenditures in YTD 2024. Refer to Note 2, "Acquisition," for more information.
Financing Cash Flows
Financing cash flows decreased in YTD 2024 versus YTD 2023 primarily due to the borrowings for our acquisition of Powerblanket in YTD 2023 with no similar activity in YTD 2024. We borrowed on our revolving credit facility in both comparative periods, although to a lesser extent in YTD 2024 versus YTD 2023.
Credit Facilities
On September 29, 2021, Thermon Group Holdings, Inc. (the “Company”), as a credit party and a guarantor, and its subsidiaries Thermon Holding Corp. (“THC” or the “U.S. Borrower”) and Thermon Canada Inc. (the “Canadian Borrower” and together with THC, the “Borrowers”), as borrowers, entered into an Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with several banks and other financial institutions or entities from time to time (the “Lenders”) and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A., as Administrative Agent (the “Agent”).
The Credit Agreement is an amendment and restatement of that certain Credit Agreement dated October 30, 2017 by and among Borrowers, the lenders time to time party thereto and JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. as administrative agent (the “Prior Credit Agreement”), and provides for the credit facilities described in Note 9, "Debt," in Part I, Item 1. Financial

Statements (Unaudited) of this quarterly report. There is no material uncertainty about our ongoing ability to comply with our covenants.
Other Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In addition to evaluating our cash flow generation based upon operating, investing, and financing activities, the Company believes that the non-GAAP measure used in this section may provide investors and key stakeholders with another important perspective regarding our performance. The Company does not intend for this non-GAAP metric to be a substitute for the related GAAP measure, nor should it be viewed in isolation and without considering all relevant GAAP measurements. Moreover, our calculation may not be comparable to similarly titled measures reported by other companies.
We define “Free Cash Flow” as net cash provided by operating activities less cash used for the purchase of property, plant, and equipment, net of sales of rental equipment as well as proceeds from sales of land and buildings. This metric should not be interpreted to mean the remaining cash that is available for discretionary spending, dividends, share repurchases, acquisitions, or other purposes, as it excludes significant, mandatory obligations, such as principal payments on the Company’s long-term debt facility. Free cash flow is one measure that the Company uses internally to assess liquidity.
Free Cash Flow totaled $(1.3) million for YTD 2024 as compared to $9.0 million for YTD 2023, the drivers of which are explained above under "Discussion and Analysis of Cash Flows."
Contractual Obligations and Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business in the Company’s contractual obligations during Interim 2024. The Company does not have any off-balance sheet arrangements or any interest in entities commonly referred to as variable interest entities, which include special purpose entities and other structured finance entities. See the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023, filed on May 25, 2023, for further details.
Critical Accounting Polices
Our condensed consolidated financial statements are prepared in conformity with GAAP. The preparation of our financial statements requires management to make estimates and judgments that affect the reported amounts of assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses. See Part II, 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, 2023, filed with the SEC on May 25, 2023, for a discussion of the Company’s critical accounting policies and estimates.
Recent Accounting Pronouncements
See Note 1, “Basis of Presentation,” to our unaudited 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 52% of our YTD 2024 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 manufacturing facilities located elsewhere, primarily the United States, Canada and 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, Australian Dollar, South Korean Won, Chinese Renminbi, Indian Rupee, Mexican Peso, and Japanese Yen. 
During YTD 2024, our largest exposures to foreign exchange rates consisted primarily of the Canadian Dollar and the Euro. 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 net decrease in net income of $0.8 million for YTD 2024. Conversely, a 10% depreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the Canadian dollar would result in a net increase in net income of $1.0 million for YTD 2024. A 10% appreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro would result in a $0.1 million decrease in net income. Conversely, a 10% depreciation of the U.S. dollar relative to the Euro would result in a $0.2 million increase in net income for YTD 2024.

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 and comprehensive income/(loss) were losses of a nominal amount and $0.3 million in YTD 2024 and YTD 2023, respectively.
As of September 30, 2023, we had approximately $6.0 million in notional forward contracts to reduce our exposure to foreign currency exchange rate fluctuations with respect to currencies. 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 3, “Fair Value Measurements” to our unaudited condensed financial statements included above in Item 1. Financial Statements (Unaudited) of this quarterly report for further information regarding our foreign currency forward contracts.
We estimate that our sales were negatively impacted by $3.3 million in YTD 2024 when compared to foreign exchange translation rates that were in effect in YTD 2023. Foreign currency impact on revenue is calculated by comparing actual current period revenue in U.S. dollars to the theoretical U.S. Dollar revenue we would have achieved based on the weighted-average foreign exchange rates in effect in the comparative prior periods for all applicable foreign 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 effects of foreign currency translations were losses of $3.4 million and $23.0 million in YTD 2024 and YTD 2023, respectively. The losses are due to the strengthening of the U.S. dollar relative to the Company's other primary operating currencies, which was more pronounced in YTD 2023. Foreign currency translation gains or losses are reported as part of comprehensive income or loss in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income/(loss). Foreign currency transactions gains and losses are included in net income or loss as part of other income and expense in the condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income/(loss).
    Interest rate risk and foreign currency risk relating to debt. Borrowings under our Term Loan Facilities and the Revolving Credit Facility incur interest expense that is variable in relation to the SOFR and CDOR rate. As of September 30, 2023, we had $83.1 million of outstanding principal under our Term Loan Facilities and $27.5 million in borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility. The interest rates on the Term Loan Facilities on September 30, 2023 were 6.73% for the Canadian Term Loan Facility, 6.68% for the U.S. Term Loan Facility, and 6.68% for the U.S. Revolving Credit Facility. Based on the outstanding borrowings, a 1% change in the interest rate would result in a $1.1 million increase or decrease, as applicable, in our annual interest expense.
    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. Raw material costs have been stable historically; however, in recent periods we have experienced, and may continue to experience, various shortages in certain raw materials as well as an increase in costs of these materials due to: use of alternate suppliers, higher freight costs, increased lead times, and expedited shipping. We cannot provide any assurance that we will continue to mitigate temporary raw material shortages or be able to pass along such cost increases, including the potential impacts of tariffs or supply chain challenges, to our customers in the future, and if we are unable to do so, our results of operations may be adversely affected.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we have evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our 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 the Company’s internal control over financial reporting during the most recently completed fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the Company’s internal control over financial reporting.
