VIRCO MFG. CORPORATION
Notes to unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
April 30, 2022
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (U.S. GAAP) for interim financial information and pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and notes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements and are presented in accordance with the requirements of Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 (“Form 10-K”).  In the opinion of management, all adjustments considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three months ended April 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending January 31, 2023. The balance sheet at January 31, 2022 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at that date, but does not include all of the information and notes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States for complete financial statements. All references to the “Company” refer to Virco Mfg. Corporation and its subsidiaries.

Liquidity

The Company expects the impact of supply chain constraints and COVID-19 to continue to be a challenge for the foreseeable future and believes the economy will be adversely impacted for an indeterminate period, including the demand for its products and supply of materials and labor required to manufacture products. The extent of the impact will depend on numerous factors that are unknown, uncertain and cannot be reasonably predicted.

Note 2. Seasonality and Management Use of Estimates
The market for educational furniture is marked by extreme seasonality, with approximately 50% of the Company’s total sales typically occurring from June to August each year, the Company’s peak season. Hence, the Company typically builds and carries significant amounts of inventory during and in anticipation of this peak summer season to facilitate the rapid delivery requirements of customers in the educational market. This requires a large up-front investment in inventory, labor, storage and related costs as inventory is built in anticipation of peak sales during the summer months. As the capital required for this build-up generally exceeds cash available from operations, the Company has generally relied on third-party bank financing to meet cash flow requirements during the build-up period immediately preceding the peak season. In addition, the Company typically is faced with a large balance of accounts receivable during the peak season. This occurs for two primary reasons. First, accounts receivable balances typically increase during the peak season as shipments of products increase. Second, many customers during this period are educational institutions and government entities, which tend to pay accounts receivable slower than commercial customers. For the three months ended April 30, 2022, management believes that the traditional peak season has been and will continue to be impacted by economic conditions related to supply chain disruption and COVID 19. The Company is experiencing supply chain disruptions for raw materials. In addition, the Company's customers are experiencing supply chain disruption impacting the completion of new school construction and renovation.

The Company’s working capital requirements during and in anticipation of the peak summer season require management to make estimates and judgments that affect assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses, and related contingent assets and liabilities. On an ongoing basis, management evaluates its estimates, including those related to market demand, labor costs and stocking inventory. Significant estimates made by management include, but are not limited to, valuation of inventory; deferred tax assets and liabilities; useful lives of property, plant and equipment; liabilities under pension, warranty, self-insurance and environmental claims; and the accounts receivable allowance for doubtful accounts. Due to the inherent uncertainty involved in making assumptions and estimates, events and changes in circumstances arising after April 30, 2022, including those resulting from the continuing impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic and supply chain disruption, may result in actual outcomes that differ from those contemplated by our assumptions and estimates.

Note 3. New Accounting Pronouncements

Recently Issued Accounting Updates

9


In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments. ASU 2016-13 replaces the incurred loss impairment methodology for measuring and recognizing credit losses with a methodology that reflects expected credit losses and requires consideration of a broader range of reasonable and supportable information to inform credit loss estimates.  The adoption date, as modified by the recently issued ASU 2019-10, will be for the fiscal year beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods therein. The Company is currently evaluating the effect the standard will have on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

Other recently issued accounting updates are not expected to have a material impact on the Company’s consolidated financial statements.

Note 4. Revenue Recognition

The Company manufactures, markets and distributes a wide variety of school and office furniture to wholesalers, distributors, educational institutions and governmental entities. Revenue is recorded for promised goods or services when control is transferred to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled to in exchange for those goods or services.

The Company's sales generally involve a single performance obligation to deliver goods pursuant to customer purchase orders.  Prices for our products are based on published price lists and customer agreements. The Company has determined that the performance obligations are satisfied at a point in time when the Company completes delivery per the customer contract. The majority of sales are free on board ("FOB") destination where the destination is specified per the customer contract and may include delivering the furniture into the classroom, school site or warehouse. Sales of furniture that are sold FOB factory are typically made to resellers of our product who in turn provide logistics to the ultimate customer. Once a product has been delivered per the shipping terms, the customer is able to direct the use of, and obtain substantially all of the remaining benefits from the asset. The Company considers control to have transferred upon shipment or delivery in accordance with shipping terms because the Company has a present right to payment at that time, the customer has legal title to the asset, the Company has transferred physical possession of the asset, and the customer has significant risks and rewards of ownership of the asset.

Sales are recorded net of discounts, sales incentives and rebates, sales taxes and estimated returns and allowances. The Company offers sales incentives and discounts through various regional and national programs to our customers. These programs include product rebates, product returns allowances and trade promotions. Variable consideration for these programs is estimated in the transaction price at contract inception based on current sales levels and historical experience using the expected value method, subject to constraint.

The Company generates revenue primarily by manufacturing and distributing products through resellers and direct-to-customers. Control transfers to both resellers and direct customers at a point in time when the delivery process is complete as determined by the corresponding shipping terms. Therefore, we do not consider them to be meaningfully different revenue streams given similarities in the nature of the products, performance obligation and distribution processes. Sales are predominately in the United States and to a similar class of customer. We do not manage or evaluate the business based on product line or any other discernable category.

Note 5. Inventories
Inventories are valued at the lower of cost (determined on a first-in, first-out basis) or net realizable value and includes material, labor and factory overhead. The Company records valuation adjustments for the excess cost of the inventory over its estimated net realizable value. Valuation adjustments for slow-moving and obsolete inventory are calculated using an estimated percentage applied to inventories based on a physical inspection of the product in connection with a physical inventory, a review of slow-moving products and component stage, inventory category, historical and forecasted consumption of sales, and consideration of active marketing programs. The market for education furniture is traditionally driven by value, not style, and the Company has not typically incurred material obsolescence expenses. If market conditions are less favorable than those anticipated by management, additional valuation adjustments may be required. Due to reductions in sales volume in the past years, the Company’s manufacturing facilities are operating at reduced levels of capacity. The Company records the cost of excess capacity as a period expense, not as a component of capitalized inventory valuation.

The following table presents a breakdown of the Company’s inventories as of April 30, 2022, January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021:

Note 6. Leases

The Company has operating leases on real property, equipment, and automobiles that expire at various dates. The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at inception and assesses classification of the lease at commencement. All of the Company’s leases are classified as operating leases, as a lessee. The Company uses the implicit rate when readily determinable, or the incremental borrowing rate. Our incremental borrowing rate is estimated to approximate the interest rate on a collateralized basis with similar terms and payments using company specific credit spreads. The Company’s lease terms include options to extend or terminate the lease only when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Lease expense for our operating leases is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term.
The quantitative information regarding our leases is as follows:

The Company and Virco Inc., its wholly-owned subsidiary (the “Borrowers”) have a Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, National Association, as administrative agent and lender (“PNC”). The Credit Agreement was amended numerous times since its origination in December 2011. On September 28, 2021, the Borrowers entered into an Amended and Restated Revolving Credit and Security Agreement (the “Restated Credit Agreement”) with PNC Bank, which amended and restated the prior Credit Agreement and effectively incorporated all of the prior amendments into an amended and restated form of agreement.

The Restated Credit Agreement permits the Company to issue dividends or make payments with respect to the Company’s capital stock in an aggregate amount up to $3,000,000 during any fiscal year, provided that no default shall have occurred or is continuing or would result from any such payment, and the Company must demonstrate pro forma compliance with a 12-month trailing fixed charge coverage ratio of not less than 1.20:1.00 as of the fiscal quarter immediately preceding the date of any such dividend or payment. The Restated Credit Agreement also requires the Company to maintain a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, and contains numerous other covenants that limit under certain circumstances the ability of the Borrowers and their subsidiaries to, among other things, merge with or acquire other entities, incur new liens, incur additional indebtedness, sell assets outside of the ordinary course of business, enter into transactions with affiliates, or substantially change the general nature of the business of the Borrowers.

The other material terms of the Restated Credit Agreement are substantially the same as those of the original Credit Agreement, consisting of (i) a revolving line of credit with a Maximum Revolving Advance Amount of $65,000,000 that is subject to a borrowing base limitation and generally provides for advances of up to 85% of eligible accounts receivable, plus a percentage equal to the lesser of 60% of the value of eligible inventory or 85% of the liquidation value of eligible inventory, plus $15,000,000 from January through July of each year, minus undrawn amounts of letters of credit and reserves. The Restated
12


Credit Agreement is secured by substantially all of the Borrowers’ personal property and certain of the Borrowers’ real property. The Restated Credit Agreement is subject to certain prepayment penalties upon early termination of the Restated Credit Agreement. Prior to the maturity date, principal amounts outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement may be repaid and reborrowed at the option of the Borrowers without premium or penalty, subject to borrowing base limitations, seasonal adjustments and certain other conditions, including reduced borrowings under the revolving line to less than or equal $10,000,000 for a period of 30 consecutive days during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year. The Restated Credit Agreement also contains certain financial covenants, including a fixed charge coverage ratio and limits on capital expenditures.

The Company was in violation of its financial covenants under the Restated Credit Agreement as of January 31, 2022, due to an increase in the Company’s net loss primarily attributable to the effects of supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. On April 15, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Credit Agreement (“Amendment No. 2”), which implemented the following changes to the Credit Agreement and Revolving Credit Facility:

i.extended the final maturity date of the Revolving Credit Facility from March 19, 2023 to April 15, 2027;

ii.increased the borrowing limit from $65,000,000 to $70,000,000 in July 2022 and August 2022, and increased the borrowing limit from $40,000,000 to $45,000,000 in October 2022;

iii.waived the Company’s violation of the covenant to maintain a fixed charge coverage ratio of at least 1.00 for the period ended January 31, 2022;

iv.for the first and second quarters of fiscal year ending January 31, 2023, implemented a temporary year-to-date adjusted EBITDA covenant in lieu of testing the fixed charge coverage ratio covenant as of such quarters, with quarterly testing of the fixed charge coverage ratio to resume for the third fiscal quarter and thereafter;

v.permits a sale and leaseback transaction of the Company’s property at 1655 Amity Road and release of the lender’s pledge on the property, with the net proceeds to be used for a proposed share repurchase;

vi.retired LIBOR pricing on the Revolving Credit Facility and replaced with BSBY index, with pricing tiers and spreads to remain the same;

vii.extended the P-card, ACH Credit, and ACH debit facilities for an additional year beyond their current maturities; and

viii.Borrowers to pay a $250,000 extension fee and $75,000 waiver and amendment fee, with $200,000 due at closing and $125,000 due on the first anniversary of closing.

Based on the Company’s current projections, including COVID-19 related costs, raw material costs and its ability to introduce price increases, management believes it will maintain compliance with the financial covenants within Amendment No. 2, although there are uncertainties there within, such as raw material costs and supply chain challenges. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of April 30, 2022.

In addition to the financial covenants, the Restated Credit Agreement provides for customary events of default, subject to certain cure periods and other limitations. Substantially all of the Borrowers' accounts receivable are automatically and promptly swept to repay amounts outstanding under the Restated Credit Agreement upon receipt by the Borrowers. Due to this automatic liquidating nature of the Restated Credit Agreement, if the Borrowers breach any covenant, violate any representation or warranty or suffer a deterioration in their ability to borrow pursuant to the borrowing base calculation, the Borrowers may not have access to cash liquidity unless provided by PNC at its discretion.

The Company's revolving line of credit with PNC is structured to provide seasonal credit availability during the Company's peak summer season. Approximately $11,699,000 was available for borrowing as of April 30, 2022. The interest rate as of April 30, 2022 was 5.25%. The Company also incurs a fee on the unused portion of the revolving line of credit at a rate of 0.375%.

Management believes that the carrying value of debt approximated fair value at April 30, 2022, as all of the long-term debt bears interest at variable rates based on prevailing market conditions.

Note 8. Income Taxes
In assessing the realizability of deferred tax assets, the Company considers whether it is more-likely-than-not that some portion or all of its deferred tax assets will not be realized. The ultimate realization of deferred tax assets is dependent upon the generation of future taxable income or reversal of deferred tax liabilities during the periods in which those temporary
13


differences become deductible. As a part of this evaluation, the Company assesses all available positive and negative evidence, including future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences, projected future taxable income, the availability of tax carry backs, tax-planning strategies, and results of recent operations (including cumulative losses in recent years), to determine whether sufficient future taxable income will be generated to realize existing deferred tax assets. The Company incurred operating losses for fiscal years ended January 31, 2022 and 2021 and when combined with operating results from fiscal year ended January 31, 2020, the Company had incurred a cumulative operating loss for the last three fiscal years. As a result, the Company identified objective and verifiable negative evidence in the form of cumulative losses in the U.S. and in certain state jurisdictions over the preceding twelve quarters ended January 31, 2022. While the Company has taken significant measures to return to profitability, and order rates at the beginning of the year are favorable, the short-term outlook for the school furniture market is challenging, particularly relating to ongoing supply chain difficulties. During the fourth quarter of the year ended January 31, 2022, based on this evaluation, and after considering future reversals of existing taxable temporary differences and the effects of seasonality on the Company’s business, the Company determined the realization of a majority of the net deferred tax assets no longer met the more likely than not criteria and a valuation allowance was recorded against the majority of the net deferred tax assets. Valuation allowances of $10,099,000, $11,412,000 and $996,000 as of April 30, 2022, January 31, 2022 and April 30, 2021, respectively, are needed for federal deferred tax assets and certain state net operating loss carryforwards to reduce the carrying amount of deferred tax assets to an amount that is more-likely-than-not to be realized.

For the first quarter ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, the effective tax rates were 5.3% and 23.3%, respectively. The change in effective tax rates for the three months ended April 30, 2022 was primarily due to the recording of a valuation allowance needed for federal deferred tax assets and certain state net operating loss carryforwards which commenced in the fourth quarter of fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 and continued through the period ended April 30, 2022. Effective tax rate for the first quarter ended April 30, 2021 was primarily due to the change in forecasted mix of income before taxes in various jurisdictions, estimated permanent differences and the recording of a partial valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets.

The January 31, 2017 and subsequent years remain open for examination by the IRS and state tax authorities. The Company is not currently under any state examination. The Company is currently under IRS examination for its fiscal year ended January 31, 2016 Federal tax return.

Note 10. Stock-Based Compensation
Stock Incentive Plan
The Company's two stock incentive plans are the 2019 Omnibus Equity Incentive Plan (the “2019 Plan”) and the 2011 Stock Incentive Plan (the “2011 Plan”).

Under the 2019 Plan, the Company may grant an aggregate of 1,000,000 shares to its employees in the form of restricted stock units and non-employee directors in the form of restricted stock awards. Restricted stock units and awards granted under the
14


2019 Plan are expensed ratably over the vesting period of the awards. The Company determines the fair value of its restricted stock units or awards and related compensation expense as the difference between the market value of the units or awards on the date of grant less the exercise price of the units or awards granted. During the three-month period ended April 30, 2022, the Company granted 0 awards, vested 0 shares according to their terms and forfeited 0 shares under the 2019 Plan. As of April 30, 2022, there were approximately 608,435 shares available for future issuance under the 2019 Plan. The Board of Directors has approved an increase in the number of shares available for grant under the 2019 Plan from 1,000,000 to 2,000,000 shares, which increase is subject to approval of the Company’s stockholders at the upcoming 2022 Annual Meeting of Stockholders.

Under the 2011 Plan, the Company may grant an aggregate of 2,000,000 shares to its employees in the form of restricted stock units and non-employee directors in the form of restricted stock awards. Restricted stock units and awards granted under the 2011 Plan are expensed ratably over the vesting period of the awards. The Company determines the fair value of its restricted stock units or awards and related compensation expense as the difference between the market value of the units or awards on the date of grant less the exercise price of the units or awards granted. The 2011 Plan expired in 2021 and no new awards may be made under the 2011 Plan, although existing awards will remain outstanding in accordance with their terms. There were no restricted stock awards granted or vested under the 2011 Plan during the three-month period ended April 30, 2022.

During the three months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, stock-based compensation expense related to restricted stock units and/or awards recognized in cost of goods sold and selling, general and administrative expenses was $55,000 and $198,000, respectively.

As of April 30, 2022, there was $908,000 of unrecognized compensation expense related to unvested restricted stock units and/or awards, which is expected to be recognized over a weighted average period of approximately 3 years.

Note 11. Retirement Plans
The Company and its subsidiaries cover certain employees under a noncontributory defined benefit retirement plan, entitled the Virco Employees’ Retirement Plan (the “Pension Plan”). As more fully described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K, benefit accruals under the Employees Retirement Plan were frozen effective December 31, 2003. There is no service cost incurred under this plan.
The Company also provides a supplementary retirement plan for certain key employees, the VIP Retirement Plan (the “VIP Plan”). As more fully described in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended January 31, 2022, benefit accruals under this plan were frozen since December 31, 2003.
The net periodic pension cost for the Pension Plan and the VIP Plan for the three months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021 were as follows:

Note 12. Warranty Accrual
The Company provides a warranty against all substantial defects in material and workmanship. The standard warranty offered on products sold through January 31, 2013 is ten years. Effective February 1, 2014 the Company modified its warranty to a limited lifetime warranty. The warranty effective February 1, 2014 is not anticipated to have a significant effect on warranty expense. Effective January 1, 2017, the Company modified the standard warranty offered on products sold after January 1, 2017 to provide specific warranty periods by product component, with no warranty period longer than ten years. The Company’s warranty is not a guarantee of service life, which depends upon events outside the Company’s control and may be different from the warranty period. The Company accrues an estimate of its exposure to warranty claims based upon both product sales data and an analysis of actual warranty claims incurred.
The following is a summary of the Company’s warranty-claim activity for the three months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021:

Item 2. Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations

Results of Operations

Overview

The results of operations for the three-months ended April 30, 2022 and the comparable period ended April 30, 2021 have been significantly impacted by economic conditions driven by the COVID-19 pandemic, global supply chain disruptions and global conflict. The impact of COVID-19 has been quite different during the current year compared to the prior year. Typically, the Company has an exceptionally seasonal annual cycle where approximately 50% of sales occur in the months of June, July and August. Orders received from customers follow a similar cycle, approximately 4-6 weeks preceding the selling season.

During the three-month period ended April 30, 2021, the majority of our primary customers had either returned to full time classroom instruction or were planning for an imminent return. The Company received a large number of orders for immediate delivery in anticipation of the return to classroom instruction. For the three-month period ended April 30, 2022, management believes that the traditional seasonal cycle has returned. During the quarter ended April 30, 2022, the Company has experienced a 27.9% increase in orders, most of which are for summer of 2022 delivery. In addition, the Company started the quarter with an order backlog that was approximately $20 million greater than the prior year. This caused the Company’s backlog of unshipped orders at April 30, 2022 compared to April 30, 2021 to increase by nearly $36 million to $85.7 million compared to $49.7 million.

During the three-month period ended April 30, 2021 the Company incurred severe price increases in the cost of raw materials. By example the cost of steel, depending on type, increased by 50% to 100% during the quarter. In addition to increased costs the Company incurred shortages of domestically supplied materials including steel, plastic, resin, and wood. During the quarter ended April 30, 2021, the Company incurred labor shortages and had severe difficulty hiring both permanent and temporary labor. In comparison the quarter ended April 30, 2022 was characterized by continued high and increasing raw material costs, but did not incur the same severe spike in raw material costs incurred in the prior year. The Company raised factory wages by nearly $3 per hour in the fourth quarter of fiscal year ended January 31, 2022. This increased factory direct labor and overhead expenses, but allowed the Company to hire and retain adequate quantities of permanent and temporary labor. Production levels in the quarter ended April 30, 2022 increased by nearly 45% compared to the prior year. Increased levels of factory production and the related overhead absorption offset the effect of increased material and labor expenses.

Supply chain disruptions from international sources – primarily China – continue to adversely affect operations and the competitive landscape. In the quarter ended April 30, 2021 obtaining materials from China was adversely affected by sharply increased freight costs and by severe disruptions in ocean freight at domestic ports. In the current quarter ended April 30, 2022 the port congestion has improved moderately and ocean freight costs have not been as volatile as in the prior year, but China’s severe lockdowns of major cities due to COVID has adversely affected shipments from China to the United States. Because the Company has maintained its domestic factories, management believes that the Company will be less vulnerable to international supply chain disruption compared to competitors that source finished goods overseas, but the Company will still be affected by these international events.

Supply chain disruptions in the construction industry did not significantly impact the quarter ended April 30, 2022, but may impact the timing of sales during the summer. Virco does not deliver furniture to new schools until the customer has an occupancy certificate. Construction delays could have the effect of delaying sales from the second quarter to the third quarter of fiscal year ending January 31, 2023.

The Russian invasion of Ukraine in February 2022 has caused oil and energy prices to spike markedly, which has increased the cost of plastic and freight. Due to seasonally low first quarter sales activity the impact of freight was not severe, but management believes it may be during the summer delivery season. In addition, approximately two thirds of the pig iron used in domestic steel production comes from Russia and Ukraine. During the quarter ended April 30, 2022 steel prices remained high, but did not increase compared to the fourth quarter ended January 31, 2022. This may have an adverse impact on the availability and cost of steel later in this fiscal year.

As discussed in the Risk Factors section of the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended January 31, 2022, the Company utilizes one nationwide contract to price a significant portion of our orders. This contract/price list determines selling prices for goods and services for periods of one year and occasionally longer. Due to the current volatile nature of commodity and energy prices in addition to general inflation, the Company has negotiated the ability to increase prices for orders received after July 1 of each contract year in addition to the January 1 price increase.

Three Months Ended April 30, 2022
17



For the three months ended April 30, 2022, the Company incurred a pre-tax loss of $5,366,000 on sales of $32,084,000 compared to a pre-tax loss of $5,094,000 on sales of $28,367,000 in the prior year.

Gross profit for the first quarter was 30.3% of sales compared to 27.1% in the prior year. In order to recover the increased cost of materials and labor incurred in the prior year, the Company raised prices for all orders received after January 1, 2022. The impact of the price increase did not fully impact the first quarter. The Company started this fiscal year with an order backlog of over $40 million and the majority of this order backlog was received prior to the price increase. These lower priced orders shipped in the first quarter ended April 30, 2022 adversely affecting the gross margin.

Because the price increase did not substantially impact the quarter, the Company did not fully recover the cost increases in material and labor costs. Raw material cost increased by more than 5% of sales. Direct labor increased slightly as a percentage of sales. These increases were more than offset by increased overhead absorption resulting from increased production levels. Order rates for the three months ended April 30, 2022 increased by nearly 28% compared to the prior year. These orders were primarily for summer 2022 delivery and did not ship during the first quarter ended April 30, 2022. In addition, the Company started the quarter with an order backlog that was approximately $20 million greater than the prior year. During the first quarter ended April 30, 2022 production levels increased by 45% in anticipation of substantially increased summer deliveries of furniture.

Selling, general and administrative expenses for the three months ended April 30, 2022 increased by approximately $2,468,000 compared to the same period last year. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses was attributable in part to increased variable freight and service expense and by increased selling expenses. In addition, the Company incurred increased legal expenses in the first quarter of 2022 to enforce its intellectual property rights against a competitor in the school furniture market and for outside legal counsel to advise a special committee of the Board of Directors formed in May 2021 and terminated in May 2022. The special committee was formed to review and advise the Board on an unsolicited acquisition proposal with the assistance of independent legal counsel and an independent financial advisor, which proposal was ultimately rejected as inadequate and not in the best interests of shareholders.

Interest expense increased by $134,000 for the three months ended April 30, 2022 compared to the same period last year. The increase was primarily attributable to an increase in the amount borrowed in 2022 to finance seasonal working capital in the first quarter and an increase in interest rate.

For the three months ended April 30, 2022 and 2021, the effective tax rates were 5.3% and 23.3%, respectively. The change in effective tax rates for the three months ended April 30, 2022 was due primarily to the recording of a valuation allowance needed for federal deferred tax assets and certain state net operating loss carryforwards which commenced in the fourth quarter of fiscal year ended January 31, 2022 and continued through the period ended April 30, 2022. Effective tax rate for the first quarter ended April 30, 2021 was primarily due to the change in forecasted mix of income before taxes in various jurisdictions, estimated permanent differences and the recording of a partial valuation allowance on net deferred tax assets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
The market for education furniture is extremely seasonal and approximately 50% of the Company's annual sales volume is shipped in the months of June through August of each year. The Company traditionally manufactures large quantities of inventory during the first and second quarters of each fiscal year in anticipation of seasonally high summer shipments. In addition, the Company finances a large balance of accounts receivable during the peak season.

Inventory increased by $23,422,000 at April 30, 2022 compared to April 30, 2021. Approximately 40% of the increase in inventory was valuation related to increased material and labor costs and the other 60% was due to increased quantity. The increase in inventory was financed by increased borrowing under the Company’s line of credit with PNC Bank and increased vendor credit, which traditionally increases with increased purchases of materials.

Accrual basis capital expenditures for the three months ended April 30, 2022 were $627,000 compared to $428,000 for the same period last year. Capital expenditures are being financed through the Company's credit facility with PNC Bank and operating cash flow and restricted to not exceed $8,000,000 by covenant.

The Company was in violation of its financial covenants under the Restated Credit Agreement as of January 31, 2022, due to an increase in the Company’s net loss primarily attributable to the effects of supply chain disruptions and labor shortages. On April 15, 2022, the Company entered into Amendment No. 2 to the Revolving Credit and Security Agreement with PNC Bank, which implemented certain changes to the Company’s credit facility with PNC Bank, including the extension of the final
18


maturity date of the facility to April 15, 2027 and increasing the borrowing limit from $65,000,000 to $70,000,000 in July and August 2022, and from $40,000,000 to $45,000,000 in October 2022.

Based on the Company’s current projections, including COVID-19 related costs, raw material costs and its ability to introduce price increases, management believes it will maintain compliance with the financial covenants within Amendment No. 2, although there are uncertainties there within, such as raw material costs and supply chain challenges. The Company was in compliance with its debt covenants as of April 30, 2022. See Note 7 of Notes to Unaudited Consolidated Financial Statements under Item 1.

The Company believes that cash flows from operations, together with the Company's unused borrowing capacity with PNC Bank will be sufficient to fund the Company's debt service requirements, capital expenditures and working capital needs for the next twelve months.

Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
None.

PART II — Other Information

Virco Mfg. Corporation

Item 1. Legal Proceedings

The Company is a party to various legal actions arising in the ordinary course of business which, in the opinion of the Company, are not material in that management either expects that the Company will be successful on the merits of the pending cases or that any liabilities resulting from such cases will be substantially covered by insurance. While it is impossible to estimate with certainty the ultimate legal and financial liability with respect to these actions, management believes that the aggregate amount of such liabilities will not be material to the results of operations, financial position, or cash flows of the Company.
