Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2019

(Unaudited)

Amounts in thousands, except per share data

Note 1. Interim Financial Statements

Nature of Business

NN, Inc., is a global diversified industrial company that combines advanced engineering and production capabilities with in-depth materials science expertise to design and manufacture high-precision components and assemblies for the medical, aerospace and defense, electrical, automotive, and general industrial markets. As used in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q, the terms “NN,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to NN, Inc., and its subsidiaries. As of March 31, 2019, we had 51 facilities in North America, Europe, South America, and China.

Basis of Presentation

The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have not been audited, except that the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of December 31, 2018, was derived from the audited consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2018 (the “2018 Annual Report”), which we filed with the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission (the “SEC”), on March 18, 2019. In management’s opinion, the accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments necessary to fairly state our results of operations for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018; financial position as of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018; and cash flows for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, on a basis consistent with our audited consolidated financial statements other than the adoption of new accounting standards, such as the new lease standard (see Note 10). These adjustments are of a normal recurring nature and are, in the opinion of management, necessary to state fairly the Company’s financial position and operating results for the interim periods.

Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in the consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted from the interim financial statements presented in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with our audited consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes included in the 2018 Annual Report. The results for the three months ended March 31, 2019, are not necessarily indicative of results for the year ending December 31, 2019, or any other future periods.

Except for per share data or as otherwise indicated, all U.S. dollar amounts presented in the tables in these Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are in thousands.

Accounting Standards Recently Adopted

Leases. On January 1, 2019, we adopted Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 842, Leases, which superseded ASC 840, Leases. We adopted ASC 842 utilizing the modified retrospective transition approach, therefore, historical financial information and disclosures do not reflect the new standard and will continue to be presented under the previous lease accounting guidance. Under the modified retrospective transition method, we recognized the cumulative effect of the initial adoption adjustment to the opening balance of retained deficit as of January 1, 2019. The adoption adjustment to retained deficit was less than $0.1 million. As part of the adoption of ASC 842, we elected the package of practical expedients, the short-term lease exemption, and the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components. We recorded lease-related assets and liabilities to our balance sheet for leases with terms greater than twelve months that were classified as operating leases and not previously recorded on our balance sheet. See Note 10 for the required disclosures related to ASC 842.

Derivatives and Hedging. In August 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update 2017-12, Derivatives and Hedging (Topic 815): Targeted Improvements to Accounting for Hedging Activities, (“ASU 2017-12”). ASU 2017-12 provides new rules that expand the hedging strategies that qualify for hedge accounting. The new rules also allow additional time to complete hedge effectiveness testing and allow qualitative assessments subsequent to initial quantitative tests if there is supportable expectation that the hedge will remain highly effective. We adopted the guidance on January 1, 2019. We have applied the new rules to 2019 hedging activities as disclosed in Note 16 to these condensed consolidated financial statements. The new guidance has no effect on our historical financial statements.

Effects of Tax Reform in Other Comprehensive Income. In February 2018, the FASB issued guidance related to the impacts of the U.S. Tax Cuts and Jobs Act of 2017 (“Tax Act”). Under existing U.S. GAAP, the effects of changes in tax rates and laws on deferred tax balances are recorded as a component of income tax expense in the period in which the law was enacted. When deferred tax balances related to items originally recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (“AOCI”) are adjusted, certain tax effects become stranded in AOCI. The FASB issued ASU 2018-2, Income Statement – Reporting Comprehensive

Table of Contents

Income (Topic 220): Reclassification of Certain Tax Effects from Accumulated Other Comprehensive Income, that permits reclassification of certain income tax effects of the Tax Act from AOCI to retained earnings. The guidance also requires certain disclosures about stranded tax effects. The new guidance was effective for us on January 1, 2019. We adopted the new guidance at the beginning of the period of adoption. The new guidance had no effect on our financial statements.

Accounting Standards Not Yet Adopted

Fair Value Disclosures. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-13, Fair Value Measurement (Topic 820): Disclosure Framework - Changes to the Disclosure Requirements for Fair Value Measurement, that modifies fair value disclosure requirements. The new guidance could impact us by streamlining disclosures of Level 3 fair value measurements. The modified disclosures are effective for NN beginning in the first quarter of 2020, with early adoption allowed. ASU 2018-13 changes only disclosures and does not impact our financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. We are in the process of evaluating the effects of this guidance on our fair value disclosures.

Internal-Use Software. In August 2018, the FASB issued ASU 2018-15, Intangibles - Goodwill and Other - Internal-Use Software: Customer’s Accounting for Implementation Costs Incurred in a Cloud Computing Arrangement That Is a Service Contract (a consensus of the FASB Emerging Issues Task Force), that provides guidance on a customer’s accounting for implementation, set-up, and other upfront costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is hosted by the vendor. Under the new guidance, customers will apply the same criteria for capitalizing implementation costs as they would for an arrangement that has a software license. ASU 2018-15 is effective for us on January 1, 2020, using either a prospective or retrospective approach and with early adoption permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the effects of this guidance on our financial statements.

Note 2. Acquisitions

Paragon Medical, Inc.

On May 7, 2018, we acquired 100% of the stock of PMG Intermediate Holding Corporation, the parent company of Paragon Medical, Inc. (“Paragon Medical”). For accounting purposes, Paragon Medical meets the definition of a business and has been accounted for as a business combination. Paragon Medical is a medical device manufacturer which focuses on the orthopedic, case and tray, implant, and instrument markets. This acquisition continues our strategic focus to expand our Life Sciences portfolio as well as create a balanced business by diversifying our products and finished device offerings. We have performed an assessment of the opening balance sheet which is subject to completion of our internal review procedures over fair value estimates. Opening balance sheet deferred taxes have been recorded based on estimates made as of the acquisition date as well as information currently available to management. As estimates are refined and additional information is received throughout the measurement period, adjustments to opening deferred taxes may be recorded with an offsetting adjustment to goodwill.

Beginning May 7, 2018, our consolidated results of operations include the results of Paragon Medical.

The unaudited pro forma financial results shown in the table below for the three months ended March 31, 2018, combine the consolidated results of NN and Paragon Medical giving effect to the Paragon Medical acquisition as if it had been completed on January 1, 2017. The unaudited pro forma financial results do not give effect to any of our other acquisitions that occurred after January 1, 2017, and do not include any anticipated synergies or other assumed benefits of the Paragon Medical acquisition. This unaudited pro forma financial information is presented for informational purposes only and is not indicative of future operations or results had the Paragon Medical acquisition been completed as of January 1, 2017.

The unaudited pro forma financial results include certain adjustments for debt service costs and additional depreciation and amortization expense based upon the fair value step-up and estimated useful lives of Paragon Medical depreciable fixed assets and definite-life amortizable assets acquired. The provision for income taxes has also been adjusted for all periods, based upon the foregoing adjustments to historical results.

During 2018, as a result of our annual goodwill impairment analysis performed during the fourth quarter of 2018, we recorded an impairment of $109.1 million in our Power Solutions group. After the impairment, Power Solutions reported a goodwill balance of $94.5 million at December 31, 2018. Given the carrying value of the Power Solutions reporting unit was equal to its fair value at December 31, 2018 as a result of the 2018 goodwill impairment, if actual performance of the Power Solutions reporting unit falls short of expected results, additional material impairment charges may be required. During the first quarter of 2019, we reassessed the relevant facts and circumstances and concluded there was no impairment during the period. We will continue to monitor and assess Power Solutions during 2019.

Note 7. Investment in Joint Venture

We own a 49% investment in Wuxi Weifu Autocam Precision Machinery Company, Ltd. (the “JV”), a joint venture located in Wuxi, China. The JV is jointly controlled and managed, and we account for it under the equity method.

The following table summarizes activity related to our investment in the JV.



Balance as of December 31, 2018	$	20,364
Share of earnings	269
Foreign currency translation gain	454
Balance as of March 31, 2019	$	21,087

During the fourth quarter of 2018, as a result of changing market conditions, the fair value of the JV was assessed and we recorded an impairment charge of $16.6 million against our investment in the JV. The fair value assessment was most significantly affected by changes in our assessment of future growth rates. It is reasonably possible that material deviation of future performance from the estimates used in the 2018 valuation could result in further impairment to our investment in the JV in subsequent periods. There was no impairment of our investment in the JV during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

We recognized sales to the JV of less than $0.1 million and $0.1 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively.

Note 8. Income Taxes

Our effective tax rate was (13.5)% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, and 14.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Our 2019 effective tax rate differs from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% principally due to a discrete tax charge of $6.0 million related to final tax regulations published by the Department of the Treasury and Internal Revenue Service on February 4, 2019. The 2019 effective tax rate was also impacted by the minimum tax on global intangible low-tax income (“GILTI”) and earnings outside the United States, which are taxed at different rates than the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21%.

Our 2018 effective tax rate differed from the U.S. federal statutory tax rate of 21% due to permanent differences including GILTI and earnings outside the United States, which were taxed at different rates than the U.S. federal statutory rate of 21%.

Note 9. Debt

Collectively, our credit facility is comprised of a term loan with a face amount of $545.0 million, maturing on October 19, 2022 (the “Senior Secured Term Loan”); a term loan with a face amount of $300.0 million, maturing on April 3, 2021 (the Incremental Term Loan”); and a revolving line of credit with a face amount of $143.0 million, maturing on October 19, 2020 (the “Senior Secured Revolver”). The credit facility is collateralized by all of our assets.

The following table presents debt balances as of March 31, 2019, and December 31, 2018.



	March 31, 2019		December 31, 2018
Senior Secured Term Loan	$	530,625	$	532,063
Incremental Term Loan	276,000		279,000
Senior Secured Revolver	56,184		38,720
International lines of credit and other loans	10,601		9,810
Total principal	873,410		859,593
Less—current maturities of long-term debt	33,444		31,280
Principal, net of current portion	839,966		828,313
Less—unamortized debt issuance costs	13,692		16,842
Long-term debt, net of current portion	$	826,274	$	811,471

We capitalized interest costs amounting to $0.6 million and $0.2 million in the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, respectively, related to construction in progress.

Senior Secured Term Loan

Outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Term Loan bear interest at the greater of 0.75% or one-month London Interbank Offered Rate (“LIBOR”) plus an applicable margin of 3.75%. At March 31, 2019, the Senior Secured Term Loan bore interest at 6.24%.

Incremental Term Loan

Outstanding borrowings under the Incremental Term Loan bear interest at one-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.25%. At March 31, 2019, the Incremental Term Loan bore interest of 5.74%.

Senior Secured Revolver

Outstanding borrowings under the Senior Secured Revolver bear interest at one-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.50%. At March 31, 2019, the Senior Secured Revolver bore interest of 5.99%. We pay an annual commitment fee of 0.50% for unused capacity under the Senior Secured Revolver on a quarterly basis.

Total available capacity under the Senior Secured Revolver was $125.0 million as of March 31, 2019. Our credit facility is subject to certain financial covenants based on a consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined in the credit facility agreement. The financial covenants are effective when we have outstanding borrowings under our Senior Secured Revolver on the last day of any fiscal quarter, become more restrictive over time, and are dependent upon our operational and financial performance. If our operational or financial performance is below our expectations, we may be required to take actions to reduce expenditures and decrease our net indebtedness to maintain compliance in future periods. We had $56.2 million outstanding under the Senior Secured Revolver at March 31, 2019, and we were in compliance with all covenants under our credit facility.

On March 15, 2019, we amended our existing credit facility (the “March 2019 amendment”) to amend the defined terms within the credit facility. We paid $0.8 million of debt issuance costs related to the March 2019 amendment which was recorded as a direct reduction to the carrying amount of the associated long-term debt. We also wrote-off $2.7 million of unamortized debt issuance costs related to the modification of the credit facility.

Derivative Instruments and Hedging Activities

In February 2019, we entered into a $700.0 million amortizing notional amount fixed-rate interest rate swap agreement to manage the interest rate risk associated with our long-term variable-rate debt until 2022. The fixed-rate interest rate swap agreement calls for us to receive interest monthly at a variable rate equal to one-month LIBOR and to pay interest monthly at a fixed rate of 2.4575%. Refer to Note 16 for further discussion of the interest rate swap agreement.

Note 10. Leases

We adopted ASC 842 on January 1, 2019, and elected the modified retrospective approach in which the new standard is applied to all leases existing at the date of adoption through a cumulative-effect adjustment of less than $0.1 million to retained deficit.

Table of Contents

Consequently, financial information is not updated, and the disclosures required under the new standard are not provided for periods prior to January 1, 2019. As part of the adoption, we elected the package of practical expedients, the short-term lease exemption, and the practical expedient to not separate lease and non-lease components permitted within ASC 842. Accordingly, we accounted for our existing operating leases as operating leases under the new standard, without reassessing (a) whether the contracts contain a lease under ASC 842, (b) whether classification of the operating leases would be different in accordance with ASC 842, or (c) whether any unamortized initial direct costs would have met the definition of initial direct costs in ASC 842 at lease commencement.

We determine whether an arrangement is a lease at inception. Right-of-use (“ROU”) lease assets represent our right to use an underlying asset for the lease term, and lease obligations represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU lease assets and obligations are recognized at the lease commencement date based on the present value of lease payments over the lease term. When the implicit rate is not readily determinable, we use the estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of lease payments. The lease terms may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that we will exercise that option. Amortization of ROU lease assets is recognized in expense on a straight-line basis over the lease term.

Short-term leases are leases having a term of twelve months or less. We recognize short-term leases on a straight-line basis and do not record a related lease asset or liability for such leases. Finance lease ROU assets consist of equipment used in the manufacturing process with terms between thirteen months and five years. Operating lease ROU assets consist of the following:


•	Equipment used in the manufacturing process as well as office equipment with terms between thirteen months and five years.


•	Manufacturing plants and office facilities with terms between thirteen months and 25 years.

The following table presents components of lease expense for the three months ended March 31, 2019:

Note 12. Commitments and Contingencies

Brazil ICMS Tax Matter

Table of Contents

intrinsically related to the manufacturing processes. Autocam Brazil filed an administrative defense with the Brazilian tax authority arguing, among other matters, that it should qualify for an ICMS tax credit, contending that the intermediary materials are directly related to the manufacturing process.

We believe that we have substantial legal and factual defenses, and we plan to defend our interests in this matter vigorously. The matter encompasses several lawsuits filed with the Brazilian courts requesting declaratory actions that no tax is due or seeking a stay of execution on the collection of the tax. In 2018, we obtained a favorable decision in one of the declaratory actions for which the period for appeal has expired. We have filed actions in each court requesting dismissal of the matter based on the earlier court action. Although we anticipate a favorable resolution to all matters, we can provide no assurances that we will be successful in achieving dismissal of all pending cases. While we believe a loss is not probable, we estimate the range of possible losses related to this assessment is from $0 to $6.0 million. No amount was accrued at March 31, 2019, for this matter.

We are entitled to indemnification from the former shareholders of Autocam, subject to the limitations and procedures set forth in the agreement and plan of merger relating to the Autocam acquisition. Management believes the indemnification would include amounts owed for the tax, interest, and penalties related to this matter.

All Other Legal Matters

All other legal proceedings are of an ordinary and routine nature and are incidental to our operations. Management believes that such proceedings should not, individually or in the aggregate, have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition, results of operations, or cash flows. In making that determination, we analyze the facts and circumstances of each case at least quarterly in consultation with our attorneys and determine a range of reasonably possible outcomes.

Note 13. Revenue from Contracts with Customers

Revenue is recognized when control of the good or service is transferred to the customer either at a point in time or, in limited circumstances, as our services are rendered over time. Revenue is measured as the amount of consideration we expect to receive in exchange for transferring goods or services. Sales, value add, and other taxes we collect concurrent with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Incidental items that are immaterial in the context of the contract are recognized as expense.

The following tables summarize sales to external customers by major source.

Revenue recognized during the three months ended March 31, 2019, from amounts included in deferred revenue at the beginning of the period for performance obligations satisfied or partially satisfied during the period, was approximately $0.6 million.

Transaction Price Allocated to Future Performance Obligations

We are required to disclose the aggregate amount of transaction price that is allocated to performance obligations that have not yet been satisfied as of March 31, 2019, unless our contracts meet one of the practical expedients. Our contracts met the following practical expedient provided by the guidance:


•	The performance obligation is part of a contract that has an original expected duration of one year or less.

Sales Concentration

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we recognized sales from a single customer of $23.3 million, or 10.9% of consolidated net sales. Revenues from this customer are in our Life Sciences and Power Solutions groups. No customers represented more than 10% of our net sales during the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Stock Options

Table of Contents

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we granted options to purchase 210,400 shares to certain key employees. The weighted average grant date fair value of the options granted during the three months ended March 31, 2019, was $2.77 per share. The fair value of our options cannot be determined by market value because they are not traded in an open market. Accordingly, we utilized the Black Scholes financial pricing model to estimate the fair value.

The following table shows the weighted average assumptions relevant to determining the fair value of stock options granted in 2019.



	2019
Expected term	6 years
Risk free interest rate	2.47	%
Dividend yield	3.53	%
Expected volatility	49.53	%
Expected forfeiture rate	4.00	%

The expected term is derived from using the simplified method of determining stock option terms as described under the Staff Accounting Bulletin Topic 14, Share-based payment. The simplified method was used because sufficient historical stock option exercise experience was not available, primarily due to the transformation of the management structure over the past several years.

The average risk-free interest rate is derived from United States Department of Treasury published interest rates of daily yield curves for the same time period as the expected term.

The expected dividend yield is derived by a mathematical formula which uses the expected annual dividends over the expected term divided by the fair market value of our common stock at the grant date.

The expected volatility rate is derived from our actual common stock historical volatility over the same time period as the expected term. The volatility rate is derived by mathematical formula utilizing daily closing price data.

The forfeiture rate is determined from examining the historical pre-vesting forfeiture patterns of past option issuances to key employees. While the forfeiture rate is not an input of the Black Scholes model for determining the fair value of the options, it is an important determinant of stock option compensation expense to be recorded.

The following table summarizes stock option activity for the three months ended March 31, 2019.



	Number of Options (in thousands)		Weighted- Average Exercise Price (per share)		Weighted- Average Remaining Contractual Term (years)	Aggregate Intrinsic Value
Outstanding at January 1, 2019	771		$	15.17
Granted	210		7.93
Exercised	—					$	—
Forfeited or expired	(3	)	24.41

Exercisable at March 31, 2019	701		$	14.27	5.0	$	—	⁽¹⁾

_______________________________


(1)	The aggregate intrinsic value is the sum of intrinsic values for each exercisable individual option grant. The intrinsic value is the amount by which the closing market price of our stock at March 31, 2019, was greater than the exercise price of any individual option grant.

Restricted Stock

During the three months ended March 31, 2019, we granted 281,065 restricted stock awards to non-executive directors, officers and certain other key employees. The shares of restricted stock granted during the three months ended March 31, 2019, vest pro-rata over three years for officers and certain other key employees and over one year for non-executive directors. We determined the fair value of the shares awarded by using the closing price of our common stock as of the date of grant. The weighted average grant date value of restricted stock granted in the three months ended March 31, 2019, was $7.93 per share. Total grant-date fair value of restricted stock that vested in the three months ended March 31, 2019, was $1.5 million.

Table of Contents

The following table summarizes the status of unvested restricted stock awards as of March 31, 2019, and changes during the three months then ended.

Performance Share Units

Performance Share Units (“PSUs”) are a form of long-term incentive compensation awarded to executive officers and certain other key employees designed to directly align the interests of employees to the interests of our stockholders, and to create long-term stockholder value. PSU awards granted in 2019 were made pursuant to the NN, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan and a Performance Share Unit Agreement (the “2016 Omnibus Agreement”). Some PSUs are based on total shareholder return (“TSR Awards”), and other PSUs are based on return on invested capital (“ROIC Awards”).

The TSR Awards vest, if at all, upon our achieving a specified relative total shareholder return, which will be measured against the total shareholder return of the S&P SmallCap 600 Index during specified performance periods as defined in the 2016 Omnibus Agreement. The ROIC Awards vest, if at all, upon our achieving a specified average return on invested capital during the performance periods. Each performance period generally begins on January 1 of the year of grant and ends 36 months later on December 31.

We recognize compensation expense over the performance period in which the performance and market conditions are measured. If the PSUs do not vest at the end of the performance periods, then the PSUs will expire automatically. Upon vesting, the PSUs will be settled by the issuance of shares of our common stock, subject to the executive officer’s continued employment. The actual number of shares of common stock to be issued to each award recipient at the end of the performance periods will be interpolated between a threshold and maximum payout amount based on actual performance results. No dividends will be paid on outstanding PSUs during the performance period; however, dividend equivalents will be paid based on the number of shares of common stock that are ultimately earned at the end of the performance periods.

With respect to the TSR Awards, a participant will earn 50% of the target number of PSUs for “Threshold Performance,” 100% of the target number of PSUs for “Target Performance,” and 150% of the target number of PSUs for “Maximum Performance.” With respect to the ROIC Awards, a participant will earn 35% of the target number of PSUs for “Threshold Performance,” 100% of the target number of PSUs for “Target Performance,” and 150% of the target number of PSUs for “Maximum Performance. For performance levels falling between the values shown below, the percentages will be determined by interpolation.

The following table presents the goals with respect to TSR Awards and ROIC Awards granted in 2019.



TSR Awards:	Threshold Performance (50% of Shares)		Target Performance (100% of Shares)		Maximum Performance (150% of Shares)
2019 grants	35th Percentile		50th Percentile		75th Percentile

ROIC Awards:	Threshold Performance (35% of Shares)		Target Performance (100% of Shares)		Maximum Performance (150% of Shares)
2019 grants ⁽¹⁾	4.7	%	5.8	%	7.0	%


(1)	For the ROIC Awards granted in 2019, the denominator of the calculation is different than in prior years, and therefore the target percentages are not comparable to historical target percentages.

We estimate the grant date fair value of TSR Awards using the Monte Carlo simulation model, as the total shareholder return metric is considered a market condition under ASC Topic 718, Compensation – stock compensation. The grant date fair value of ROIC Awards is based on the closing price of a share of our common stock on the date of grant.

The following table presents the number of awards granted and the grant date fair value of each award in the period presented.

Table of Contents



	TSR Awards			ROIC Awards
Award Year	Shares (in thousands)	Grant Date Fair Value (per share)		Shares (in thousands)	Grant Date Fair Value (per share)
2019	136	$	9.28	174	$	7.93

We recognize expense for ROIC Awards based on the probable outcome of the associated performance condition. We generally recognize an expense for ROIC Awards based on the Target Performance threshold of 100% because, at the date of grant, the Target Performance is the probable level of performance achievement.

The calculation of diluted net loss per share for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, excludes 0.7 million and 0.5 million potentially dilutive stock options, which had the effect of being anti-dilutive. Given the net loss for the three months ended March 31, 2019 and 2018, all options are considered anti-dilutive and were excluded from the calculation of diluted net loss per share.

Note 16. Fair Value Measurements

Fair value is an exit price representing the expected amount that an entity would receive to sell an asset or pay to transfer a liability in an orderly transaction with market participants at the measurement date. We followed consistent methods and assumptions to estimate fair values as more fully described in the 2018 Annual Report.

Our financial instruments that are subject to fair value disclosure consist of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable, derivatives, and long-term debt. As of March 31, 2019, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximated fair value. The fair value of floating-rate debt approximates the carrying amount because the interest rates paid are based on short-term maturities. As of March 31, 2019, we had $10.6 million fixed-rate debt outstanding included in the “International lines of credit and other loans” line item within Note 9 to these Notes to Condensed Consolidated

Table of Contents

Financial Statements. These fair values represent Level 2 under the three-tier hierarchy described above. Due to the nature of these loans, fair value approximates book value.

Recurring Fair Value Measurements

Fair value principles prioritize valuation inputs across three broad levels. Level 1 inputs are quoted prices (unadjusted) in active markets for identical assets or liabilities. Level 2 inputs are quoted prices for similar assets and liabilities in active markets or inputs that are observable for the asset or liability, either directly or indirectly through market corroboration, for substantially the full term of the financial instrument. Level 3 inputs are unobservable inputs based on the assumptions used to measure assets and liabilities at fair value. An asset or liability’s classification within the various levels is determined based on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement.

We manage our exposure to fluctuations in interest rates using a mix of fixed and variable rate debt. On February 8, 2019, we entered into a $700.0 million fixed-rate interest rate swap agreement that changed the LIBOR-based portion of the interest rate on a portion of our variable rate debt to a fixed rate of 2.4575% (the “interest rate swap”). The term of the interest rate swap is from the effective date of February 12, 2019, through the termination date of October 19, 2022 (the “interest rate swap term”). The interest rate swap effectively mitigates our exposures to the risks and variability of changes in LIBOR.

The notional amount of the interest rate swap will decrease over the interest rate swap term as follows:



	Notional Amount
February 12, 2019 - December 30, 2020	$	700,000
December 31, 2020 - December 30, 2021	466,667
December 31, 2021 - October 19, 2022	233,333

The objective of the interest rate swap is to eliminate the variability of cash flows in interest payments on the first $700.0 million of variable rate debt attributable to changes in benchmark one-month LIBOR interest rates. The hedged risk is the interest rate risk exposure to changes in interest payments, attributable to changes in benchmark one-month LIBOR interest rates over the interest rate swap term. If one-month LIBOR is greater than the minimum percentage under the Senior Secured Term Loan, the changes in cash flows of the interest rate swap are expected to exactly offset changes in cash flows of the variable rate debt. The interest rate swap is designated as a cash flow hedge.

As of March 31, 2019, we reported $3.9 million loss , net of tax, in accumulated other comprehensive income related to the interest rate swap.

The following shows the liabilities measured at fair value on a recurring basis for the interest rate swap as of March 31, 2019.



	Fair Value Measurements as of March 31, 2019
Description	Quoted Prices in Active Markets for Identical Assets (Level 1)		Significant Other Observable Inputs (Level 2)		Significant Unobservable Inputs (Level 3)
Derivative liability - other current liabilities	$	—	$	543	$	—
Derivative liability - other non-current liabilities	—		4,417		—
Total	$	—	$	4,960	$	—

The inputs for determining fair value of the interest rate swap are classified as Level 2 inputs. Level 2 fair value is based on estimates using standard pricing models. These standard pricing models use inputs which are derived from or corroborated by observable market data such as interest rate yield curves, index forward curves, discount curves, and volatility surfaces. Counterparty to this derivative contracts is a highly rated financial institution which we believe carries only a minimal risk of nonperformance.

As of December 31, 2018, we had no interest rate swap agreements outstanding.

Net Sales. Net sales increased by $44.1 million, or 26%, in the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to $55.2 million of net sales attributable to the 2018 business acquisitions. The increase in sales was partially offset by a decrease in volume of $8.0 million, primarily as a result of lower demand within the automotive end market as well as unfavorable foreign exchange effects of $2.8 million, primarily in Brazil.

Cost of Sales. Cost of sales increased by $34.8 million, or 28%, in the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to $37.9 million in cost of sales attributable to the 2018 business acquisitions. The increase in cost of sales was partially offset by lower volume of $4.3 million, consistent with the decrease in sales demand. The increase in cost of sales was also partially offset by favorable foreign exchange effects of $2.3 million and $3.0 million in cost savings from production process improvement projects. Inflation and wage increases contributed $1.7 million to the increase in cost of sales.

Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Selling, general and administrative expense increased by $5.9 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to the 2018 business

acquisitions which collectively contributed $5.0 million to selling, general and administrative expense during the three months ended March 31, 2019. Infrastructure and staffing costs incurred related to our strategic initiatives, including integration of recent acquisitions and a global implementation of an enterprise resource planning (“ERP”) system, also contributed to the increase. These increases were partially offset by lower costs for professional services as a result of our strategic initiatives.

Acquisition Related Costs Excluded from Selling, General and Administrative Expense. Acquisition related costs decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, as there was no business acquisition activity during the three months ended March 31, 2019. The three months ended March 31, 2018, included professional service costs incurred in connection with the 2018 business acquisitions.

Depreciation and Amortization. Depreciation and amortization increased during the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, consistent with additions to intangible assets and property, plant and equipment, including $8.9 million from the 2018 business acquisitions. The increase in depreciation and amortization includes the effects of related fair value adjustments to certain property, plant and equipment and the addition of intangible assets, principally for customer relationships and trade names.

Other Operating (Income) Expense, Net. Other operating income, net, decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to a $0.2 million net gain on the sale of property, plant and equipment.

Restructuring and Integration Expense. Restructuring and integration expense decreased during the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to employee severance costs incurred in connection with implementing our new enterprise and management structure in 2018. Note 11 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements provides more information regarding the effects of restructuring and integration on our operating results.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased by $1.8 million during the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, primarily due to an increased balance in our Senior Secured Revolver as well as a higher variable interest rate. The increase was partially offset by the fixed-rate interest rate swap entered into in February 2019, which reduced the variability in the interest expense.

Loss on Extinguishment of Debt and Write-off of Unamortized Debt Issuance Costs. Loss on extinguishment of debt and write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs increased during the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018, due to costs written off due to the March 2019 amendment to the credit facility.

Provision/Benefit for Income Taxes. Our effective tax rate was (13.5)% for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared to 14.7% for the three months ended March 31, 2018. Note 8 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements describes the components of income taxes for each period presented.

Share of Net Income from Joint Venture. Our share of net income from a Chinese joint venture in our Mobile Solutions group decreased by $0.6 million primarily due to price and volume decreases resulting from reduced demand in the Chinese automotive market.

Changes in Financial Condition from December 31, 2018, to March 31, 2019

From December 31, 2018, to March 31, 2019, total assets increased by $79.4 million primarily due to the initial recognition of operating lease assets as of January 1, 2019, pursuant to ASC 842. Overall, accounts receivable increased consistently with sales growth. Inventories increased as our plants prepare for second quarter sales. Days inventory outstanding decreased by approximately two days as our businesses met expected customer demand on a timely basis and due to managing procurement based on market price projections.

From December 31, 2018, to March 31, 2019, total liabilities increased by $102.8 million, primarily due to the initial recognition of operating lease liabilities as of January 1, 2019, pursuant to ASC 842, an increased balance in our Senior Secured Revolver used to fund operations, and recognition of the fair value of the interest rate swap.

Working capital, which consists principally of cash, accounts receivable, inventories, and other current assets offset by accounts payable, accrued payroll costs, income taxes payable, current maturities of long-term debt, current portion of lease liabilities, and other current liabilities, was $149.3 million as of March 31, 2019, compared to $151.8 million as of December 31, 2018. The decrease in working capital was due primarily to the increase in accounts receivable and inventories consistent with our sales growth offset by an increase in accounts payable due to inventory growth, and the initial recognition of operating lease liabilities.

Cash used by operations was $2.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared with cash used by operations of $1.0 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The difference was primarily due to higher interest payments during the three months ended March 31, 2019 compared to the three months ended March 31, 2018.

Cash used by investing activities was $3.7 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared with cash used by investing activities of $32.8 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The decrease was primarily due to cash received from the liquidation of the short-term investment during 2019 and cash paid in 2018 for the 2018 business acquisitions. These decreases were partially offset by an increase in investment in property, plant and equipment during the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Cash provided by financing activities was $8.9 million for the three months ended March 31, 2019, compared with cash used by financing activities of $6.3 million for the three months ended March 31, 2018. The difference was primarily due to an increase in net borrowings under our credit facility for the three months ended March 31, 2019.

Based on the closing price of a share of our common stock as of March 31, 2019, our market capitalization had declined to a level that is less than the net book value of our stockholders’ equity. A prolonged or significant decline in market capitalization could be an indicator of additional goodwill impairment. Given the increase in our market capitalization subsequent to March 31, 2019, and factoring in a reasonable control premium, we concluded that our market capitalization was not an indication of additional goodwill impairment. We will continue to monitor our market capitalization to determine if an indicator of impairment exists in subsequent periods.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Overview

As of March 31, 2019, we had $20.3 million of cash and $56.7 million of unused borrowing capacity under our Senior Secured Revolver. We believe that these sources of cash and funds generated from our consolidated operations will provide sufficient cash flow to service the required debt and interest payments under our existing credit facility and to fund our operating activities, capital expenditure requirements, and dividend payments.

Our arrangements with customers typically provide that payments are due within 30 to 60 days following the date of shipment. We invoice and receive payment from many of our customers in euros as well as other currencies. Additionally, we are party to various third party and intercompany loans, payables, and receivables denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. As a result of these sales, loans, payables, and receivables, our foreign exchange transaction and translation risk is elevated. Various strategies to manage this risk are available to management, including producing and selling in local currencies and hedging programs. As of March 31, 2019, no currency derivatives were in place. In addition, a strengthening of the U.S. dollar

Table of Contents

and/or euro against foreign currencies could impair our ability to compete with international competitors for foreign as well as domestic sales.

For the next twelve months, we expect the sum of capital expenditures and assets procured under finance leases to remain relatively consistent with 2018 spending levels, the majority of which relate to new or expanded business or continuous improvement programs. We believe that funds generated from continuing operations and borrowings from the Senior Secured Revolver will be sufficient to finance capital expenditures and working capital needs through this period. We base these assertions on current unused borrowing capacity under our Senior Secured Revolver of $56.7 million and forecasted positive cash flow from operations for the next twelve months.

In June 2016, voters in the United Kingdom approved an advisory referendum to withdraw from the European Union, commonly referred to as “Brexit.” The uncertainty surrounding the terms of the United Kingdom’s withdrawal and the timing (deadline to leave was extended to October 31, 2019), could adversely impact consumer and investor confidence, and the level of consumer purchases of discretionary items and retail products, including our products. Any of these effects, among others, could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. We will continue to monitor and evaluate the potential effect Brexit has on our business, results of operations, and financial condition.

On February 8, 2019, we entered into a $700.0 million fixed-rate interest rate swap agreement (the “interest rate swap”) that changed the LIBOR-based portion of the interest rate on a portion of our variable rate debt to a fixed rate of 2.4575%. The term of the interest rate swap is from the effective date of February 12, 2019, through the termination date of October 19, 2022, with a declining notional amount over the term of the interest rate swap. Refer to Note 16 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion about the interest rate swap.

Credit Facility

Aggregate principal amounts outstanding under our Senior Secured Term Loan, Incremental Term Loan, and Senior Secured Revolver as of March 31, 2019, were $862.8 million (without regard to unamortized debt issuance costs). As of March 31, 2019, we had unused borrowing capacity of $56.7 million under the Senior Secured Revolver, subject to certain limitations. This amount of borrowing capacity is net of $12.1 million of outstanding letters of credit at March 31, 2019, which are considered as usage of the Senior Secured Revolver.

Collectively, our Senior Secured Term Loan, Incremental Term Loan, and Senior Secured Revolver comprise our credit facility. Total available capacity under the Senior Secured Revolver was $125.0 million as of March 31, 2019. The Senior Secured Revolver matures on October 19, 2020.

The Senior Secured Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments of $1.4 million through October 19, 2022, with the remaining principal amount due on the maturity date. If one-month LIBOR is less than 0.75%, then we pay 4.50% per annum in interest. If one-month LIBOR exceeds 0.75%, then we pay the variable one-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.75%. Based on the outstanding balance and interest rate in effect at March 31, 2019, annual interest payments would have been $33.1 million.

The Incremental Term Loan requires quarterly principal payments of $3.0 million through April 3, 2021, with the remaining principal amount due on the maturity date. The Incremental Term Loan bears interest at the variable one-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.25%. Based on the outstanding balance and interest rate in effect at March 31, 2019, annual interest payments would have been $15.9 million.

The Senior Secured Revolver bears interest at the variable one-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin of 3.50%. Based on the outstanding balance and interest rate in effect at March 31, 2019, annual interest payments would have been $3.4 million. We pay a quarterly commitment fee at an annual rate of 0.50% on the Senior Secured Revolver for unused borrowing capacity.

Covenants

Our credit facility is subject to certain financial covenants based on a consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined in the credit facility agreement. The financial covenants are effective when we have outstanding borrowings under our Senior Secured Revolver on the last day of any fiscal quarter, become more restrictive over time, and are dependent upon our operational and financial performance. If our operational or financial performance is below our expectations, we may be required to take actions to reduce expenditures and decrease our net indebtedness to maintain compliance in future periods. We had $56.2 million outstanding under the Senior Secured Revolver at March 31, 2019, and we were in compliance with all covenants under our credit facility.

Seasonality and Fluctuation in Quarterly Results

General economic conditions impact our business and financial results, and certain businesses experience seasonal and other trends related to the industries and end markets that they serve. For example, European sales are often weaker in the summer months as customers slow production, medical device sales are often stronger in the fourth calendar quarter, and sales to

Table of Contents

original equipment manufacturers are often stronger immediately preceding and following the launch of new products. However, as a whole, we are not materially impacted by seasonality.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We are not a party to any off-balance sheet arrangements that have, or are reasonably likely to have, a material current or future effect on our financial condition, revenues or expenses, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies, including the assumptions and judgments underlying them, are disclosed in the 2018 Annual Report, including those policies as discussed in Note 1 to the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements included in the 2018 Annual Report. There have been no changes to these policies during the three months ended March 31, 2019, except as discussed in Note 1 to the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements

See Note 1 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.


Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk

We are exposed to changes in financial market conditions in the normal course of business due to use of certain financial instruments as well as transacting business in various foreign currencies. To mitigate the exposure to these market risks, we have established policies, procedures, and internal processes governing the management of financial market risks. We are exposed to changes in interest rates primarily as a result of borrowing activities.

Interest Rate Risk

Variable Rate Debt

At March 31, 2019, we had $530.6 million of principal outstanding under the variable rate Senior Secured Term Loan, without regard to debt issuance costs. At March 31, 2019, a one-percent increase in the interest rate charged on outstanding variable rate borrowings under the Senior Secured Term Loan would result in interest expense increasing annually by approximately $5.3 million.

At March 31, 2019, we had $276.0 million of principal outstanding under the Incremental Term Loan, without regard to debt issuance costs. At March 31, 2019, a one-percent increase in the interest rate charged on outstanding variable rate borrowings under the Incremental Term Loan would result in interest expense increasing annually by approximately $2.8 million.

At March 31, 2019, we had $56.2 million of principal outstanding under the Senior Secured Revolver, without regard to debt issuance costs. At March 31, 2019, a one-percent increase in the interest rate charged on outstanding variable rate borrowings under the Senior Secured Revolver would result in interest expense increasing annually by approximately $0.6 million.

Interest Rate Swaps and Hedging Activities

Our policy is to manage interest expense using a mix of fixed and variable rate debt. In February 2019, we entered into a $700.0 million fixed-rate interest rate swap agreement changed the LIBOR-based portion of the interest rate on a portion of our variable rate debt to a fixed rate of 2.4575%. The term of the interest rate swap is from the effective date of February 12, 2019, through the termination date of October 19, 2022, with a declining notional amount over the term of the interest rate swap. Refer to Note 16 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further discussion about the interest rate swap. The nature and amount of borrowings may vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions, and other factors.

Foreign Currency Risk

Translation of our operating cash flows denominated in foreign currencies is impacted by changes in foreign exchange rates. We participate in various third party and intercompany loans, payables, and receivables denominated in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. To help reduce exposure to foreign currency fluctuation, we have incurred debt in euros in the past. From time to time, we may use foreign currency derivatives to hedge currency exposures when these exposures meet certain discretionary levels. We did not hold a position in any foreign currency derivatives as of March 31, 2019.


Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”)). Based upon that evaluation, as a result of the material weakness in internal control over financial reporting described below, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of March 31, 2019, to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit 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 management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow for timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

Previously Identified Material Weakness in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

A material weakness is a deficiency, or a combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting, such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements would not be prevented or detected on a timely basis.

We did not maintain an effective control environment due to a lack of a sufficient complement of personnel with an appropriate level of knowledge, experience, and training commensurate with our financial reporting requirements. This material weakness resulted in immaterial errors to other current assets; property, plant and equipment, net; goodwill; investment in joint venture; other non-current assets; accounts payable; accrued salaries, wages and benefits; other current liabilities; deferred tax liabilities; accumulated other comprehensive income; selling, general and administrative expense; depreciation and amortization; other operating expense/income; write-off of unamortized debt issuance costs; provision/benefit for income taxes; comprehensive income/loss; and cash flows in our consolidated financial statements for the years ended December 31, 2017, 2016, and 2015. These immaterial errors also resulted in a revision to previously issued financial statements for the periods December 31, 2017 and December 31, 2016. Additionally, this material weakness could result in a misstatement of substantially all account balances or disclosures that would result in a material misstatement to the annual or interim consolidated financial statements that would not be prevented or detected.

Notwithstanding the material weakness, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q present fairly, and in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.

Status of Remediation Efforts for the Unremediated Material Weakness

To ensure we have a sufficient complement of resources within our finance department, in 2018 we hired qualified personnel for critical finance roles. After we integrate these professionals into our control environment, we expect that the remediation of this material weakness will be completed.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

During the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019, we implemented technology, processes, and controls related to the recording of right-of-use assets and liabilities in connection with the adoption of ASC 842, Leases, as described in Note 1 and Note 10 in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements. Otherwise, there were no other changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting during the fiscal quarter ended March 31, 2019.

PART II. OTHER INFORMATION


Item 1.	Legal Proceedings

Brazil ICMS Tax Matter

Prior to the acquisition of Autocam Corporation in 2014 (“Autocam”), Autocam’s Brazilian subsidiary (“Autocam Brazil”) received notification from the Brazilian tax authority regarding ICMS (state value added tax or “VAT”) tax credits claimed on intermediary materials (e.g., tooling and perishable items) used in the manufacturing process. The Brazilian tax authority notification disallowed state ICMS tax credits claimed on intermediary materials based on the argument that these items are not intrinsically related to the manufacturing processes. Autocam Brazil filed an administrative defense with the Brazilian tax authority arguing, among other matters, that it should qualify for an ICMS tax credit, contending that the intermediary materials are directly related to the manufacturing process.

All Other Legal Matters

(1)

Shares were withheld to pay for tax obligations due upon the vesting of restricted stock held by certain employees granted under the NN, Inc. 2016 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Plan”). The Plan provides for the withholding of shares to satisfy tax obligations. It does not specify a maximum number of shares that can be withheld for this purpose. These shares may be deemed to be “issuer purchases” of shares that are required to be disclosed pursuant to this Item.
