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 (this “Quarterly Report), the terms “NN,” the “Company,” “we,” “our,” or “us” refer to NN, Inc., and its subsidiaries.
Basis of Presentation
In accordance with Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2014-15,
Disclosure of Uncertainties about an Entity’s Ability to Continue as a Going Concern (Subtopic 205-40)
, the Company has evaluated whether there are conditions or events, considered in the aggregate, that raise substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of the issuance of these unaudited interim financial statements. The Company’s existing revolving line of credit, which has a maximum capacity of
$110.0 million
, matures on
October 19, 2020
(the “Senior Secured Revolver”). The Company leverages such line of credit, along with cash generated from operations, to fund operations and working capital and had
$71.5 million
of outstanding borrowings as of November 6,
2019
. Based on our current and projected use of the facility, as well as cash flows to be generated from operations and investing activities, we do not anticipate that we will be able to repay the outstanding borrowings when they become due in October
2020
without refinancing the line of credit or obtaining new financing. The Company has and continues to make efforts to obtain new financing; however, there is no assurance that we will obtain sufficient financing on commercially reasonable terms, if at all, before the outstanding amounts would be required to be repaid. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of issuance of these financial statements. The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared assuming that the Company will continue as a going concern and do not include any adjustments that might result from the outcome of this uncertainty.
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 and nine
months ended
September 30, 2019
and
2018
; financial position as of
September 30, 2019
, and
December 31, 2018
; and cash flows for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 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. 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 and nine
months ended
September 30, 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.
Prior Periods’ Financial Statement Revisions
In connection with the preparation of our interim financial statements for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2019
, we identified tax accounting misstatements in our previously issued
2018
Annual Report. Such misstatements relate to the tax accounting associated with the
2018
impairment of our joint venture as well as other immaterial tax misstatements. We assessed the materiality of the misstatements on prior periods’ financial statements in accordance with SEC Staff Accounting Bulletin (“SAB”) Topic 1.M,
Materiality
, codified in Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 250,
Accounting Changes and Error Corrections
, (“ASC 250”) and concluded that the misstatements were not material to the prior annual or interim periods. However, the Company has determined that it will revise its previously issued
2018
and
2017
annual financial statements, and
8
Table of Contents
relevant interim periods, to correct for these misstatements. In connection with such revision, the Company will correct for an immaterial tax misstatement that originated in
2017
and had been previously corrected for as an out of period adjustment in 2018.
In connection with the filing of this Quarterly Report, we have revised the accompanying Consolidated Statements of Operations and Comprehensive Income (Loss) and our Consolidated Statements of Cash Flows for the
nine months ended September 30, 2018
, and have reflected the impact of the revision on our Consolidated Balance Sheet as of
December 31, 2018
. Refer to
Note 17
for the effect of the correction of the misstatements on each of the financial statements noted above.
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, the cumulative effect of the initial adoption adjustment of less than
$0.1 million
was recognized to the opening balance of retained deficit as of 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. 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 ASU 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 a 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 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
(“ASU 2018-13”)
,
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 us beginning in the first quarter of
2020
, with early adoption allowed. ASU 2018-13 changes disclosures only 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)
(“ASU 2018-15”)
,
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, but do not expect the adoption to have a material impact.
Financial Instruments - Credit Losses
. 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”), which modifies the measurement of expected credit losses on certain financial instruments and the timing of when such losses are recorded. ASU 2016-13 is effective for us on January 1,
2020
, using a modified retrospective approach, with early adoption permitted. We are in the process of evaluating the effects of this guidance on our financial statements, but do not expect the adoption to have a material impact.

In
2018
, Mobile Solutions recorded an impairment loss on goodwill. As of
September 30, 2019
,
no
goodwill was recorded at Mobile Solutions.
Based on the closing price of a share of our common stock as of
September 30, 2019
,
our market capitalization was at 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. We concluded that our market capitalization as of September 30, 2019, was not at a level that would require us to perform a goodwill impairment assessment during the period.
We will continue to monitor our market capitalization to determine if an indicator of impairment exists in subsequent periods.
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. Subsequent to the impairment, at December 31,
2018
, Power Solutions reported a goodwill balance of
$94.5 million
. Given the carrying value of the Power Solutions group 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 group falls short of expected results, additional material impairment charges may be required. During the
third
quarter of
2019
, we assessed for triggering events that would signify the need to perform an impairment test and concluded there were
no
triggering events during the period. Our annual impairment analysis will be completed as of October 1, 2019.

Table of Contents
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 of
$16.6 million
against our investment in the JV. The fair value assessment was 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 additional impairment to our investment in the JV in subsequent periods. During the
third
quarter of
2019
, we assessed for triggering events that would signify the need to perform an impairment test and concluded there were
no
triggering events during the period.
We recognized sales to the JV of less than
$0.1 million
and
$0.1 million
during the three and
nine
months ended
September 30, 2019
, respectively, and less than
$0.1 million

Income Taxes
Our effective tax rate was
17.9%
and
(5.2)%
for the
three
months and
nine
months ended
September 30, 2019
, respectively. Our effective tax rate was
28.4%
and
20.8%
for the
three
months and
nine
months ended
September 30, 2018
, respectively. Our effective tax rate for the
nine
months ended
September 30, 2019
, 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
, as well as the minimum tax on global intangible low-tax income (“GILTI”). The effective tax rate for the
three
months ended
September 30, 2019
, is impacted by the minimum tax on GILTI.
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%
.

In March
2019
, we amended our existing credit facility (the “March
2019
amendment”) to amend the defined terms within the credit facility. In June 2019, we amended our existing credit facility (the “June 2019 amendment”) to reduce the maximum capacity under the Senior Secured Revolver to
$110.0 million
, reduce the total available capacity to
$100.0 million
, and modify the consolidated net leverage ratio, as defined in the credit facility agreement, which is utilized for certain financial covenants. We paid
$0.8 million
and
$0.2 million
of debt issuance costs related to the
March 2019 amendment
and
June 2019 amendment
, respectively, which were recorded as a direct reduction to the carrying amount of the associated long-term debt. Additionally,
$2.7 million
of unamortized debt issuance costs associated with the
March 2019 amendment
to the existing credit facility were written off.
We had
$71.3 million
outstanding under the Senior Secured Revolver at

, with
$16.7 million
available for future borrowings after reductions for outstanding letters of credit and outstanding borrowings as of
September 30,
2019
. Our credit facility is subject to certain financial covenants based on a consolidated net leverage ratio. 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 does not improve in line with our expectations, we may be required to take actions to reduce expenditures and decrease our net indebtedness to maintain compliance in future periods. We were in compliance with all covenants under our credit facility at
September 30,
2019
.
As discussed in
Note 1
, the outstanding amounts under our Senior Secured Revolver are recognized as a current liability as of
October 20, 2019
.
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. 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. 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 liabilities represent our obligation to make lease payments arising from the lease. ROU lease assets and liabilities 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 greater than
twelve months
to
seven years
. Operating lease ROU assets consist of the following:
•
Equipment used in the manufacturing process as well as office equipment with terms greater than
twelve months
to
seven years
; and
•
Manufacturing plants and office facilities with terms greater than
twelve months
to
25 years
.

Commitments and Contingencies
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.
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
September 30, 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.

Securities Offering Matter
On November 1, 2019, Erie County Employees’ Retirement System, on behalf of a purported class of plaintiffs, filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, against the Company, certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors, and each of the underwriters involved in the Company’s public offering and sale of
14,375,000 shares
of its common stock pursuant to a preliminary prospectus supplement, dated September 10, 2018, a final prospectus supplement, dated September 13, 2018, and a base prospectus, dated April 19, 2017, relating to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-216737) (the “Offering”). The complaint alleges violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with the Offering. The plaintiffs seek to represent a class of stockholders who purchased shares of the Company’s common stock in the Offering. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief. The Company believes the complaint and allegations to be without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself against these actions. The Company is unable at this time to determine whether the outcome of the litigation would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
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.

Stock Options
During the
nine
months ended
September 30, 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
nine
months ended
September 30, 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
.

Risk free interest rate
2.47
%
Dividend yield

Expected volatility

%
Expected forfeiture rate

%
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 a 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.

Restricted Stock
During the

, vest pro-rata over
three
years for officers and certain other key employees and over

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. PSUs 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 award recipient’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.

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.

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.
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.
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
September 30, 2019
, the carrying values of these financial instruments approximated fair value. The fair value of floating-rate debt approximates the carrying amount as interest rates are based on short-term maturities.
Derivative Financial Instruments
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
23
Table of Contents
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
September 30, 2019
, we reported a
$12.0 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
September 30, 2019
.

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 contract 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 or other derivative financial instruments outstanding.
Fixed Rate Debt
The fair value of our outstanding fixed-rate debt included in the “International lines of credit and other loans” line item within

was
$11.3 million
and
$10.4 million
as of
September 30, 2019

was
$9.9 million

Changes in Financial Condition from
December 31, 2018
, to
September 30, 2019
Overview
From
December 31, 2018
, to
September 30, 2019
, total assets
increase
d by
$50.8 million
primarily due to the initial recognition of operating lease assets as of January 1, 2019, pursuant to ASC 842. Overall, accounts receivable
increase
d consistently with sales growth. Inventories
increase
d as our plants satisfy customer demands and prepare for future sales growth. Days inventory outstanding decreased by approximately
one
day as our businesses met expected customer demand on a timely basis and managed procurement based on market price projections.
From
December 31, 2018
, to
September 30, 2019
, total liabilities
increase
d by
$112.3 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
$160.3 million
as of
September 30, 2019
, compared to
$153.2 million
as of
December 31, 2018
. The
increase
in working capital was due primarily to the increase in accounts receivable and inventories consistent with our sales growth offset by the initial recognition of operating lease liabilities.
Cash Flows
Cash
provided by
operations was
$33.6 million
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2019
, compared with cash
used by
operations of
$13.2 million
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2018
. The difference was primarily due to a increased profitability and changes in net working capital.
Cash
used by
investing activities was
$31.0 million
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2019
, compared with cash
used by
investing activities of
$445.4 million
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2018
. The
decrease
was primarily due to cash paid for the 2018 business acquisitions partially offset by cash received from the liquidation of the short-term investment during 2019.
Cash
provided by
financing activities was
$6.9 million
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2019
, compared with cash
provided by
financing activities of
$252.8 million
for the
nine months ended September 30, 2018
. The difference was primarily due to net proceeds from the sale of common shares and higher net borrowings under our credit facility during the
nine months ended September 30, 2018
.
Impairment Analysis
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. Subsequent to the impairment, at December 31,
2018
, Power Solutions reported a goodwill balance of
$94.5 million
. Given the carrying value of the Power Solutions group 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 group falls short of expected results, additional material impairment charges may be required. During the
third
quarter of
2019
, we assessed for triggering events that would signify the need to perform an impairment test and concluded there were
no
triggering events during the period. We will continue to monitor and assess Power Solutions during
2019
.
Based on the closing price of a share of our common stock as of
September 30, 2019
,
our market capitalization was at 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. We concluded that our market capitalization as of September 30, 2019, was not at a level that would require us to perform a goodwill impairment assessment during the period.
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
September 30, 2019
, we had
$24.4 million
of cash and
$16.7 million
of unused borrowing capacity under our Senior Secured Revolver. The Company leverages the Senior Secured Revolver, along with cash generated from operations, to fund operations and working capital and had
$71.5 million
of outstanding borrowings as of November 6,
2019
. Based on our current and projected use of the facility, as well as cash flows to be generated from operations and investing activities, we do not anticipate that we will be able to repay the outstanding borrowings when they become due in October 2020 without refinancing the line of credit or obtaining new financing. The Company has and continues to make efforts to obtain new financing; however, there is no assurance that we will obtain sufficient financing on commercially reasonable terms, if at all, before the outstanding amounts would be required to be repaid. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of issuance of these financial statements.

Table of Contents
On October 21, 2019, we announced expense reduction and cash savings initiatives to help the Company continue to pay down its debt and support greater growth by reinvesting in its businesses. The expense reduction and cash saving initiatives will include streamlining facilities and reducing overall selling, general and administrative costs; elimination of quarterly dividend payments; and a reduction in capital expenditures from 2019 spending levels as the Company returns to a more normalized level of capital spending after several years of higher investment. We expect these expense reduction and cash saving initiatives to be fully realized by the second quarter of 2020.
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 various 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, we are exposed to foreign exchange transaction and translation risk. Various strategies to manage this risk are available to management, including producing and selling in local currencies and hedging programs. As of
September 30, 2019
, no currency derivatives were in place. In addition, a strengthening of the U.S. dollar against foreign currencies could impair our ability to compete with international competitors for foreign as well as domestic sales.
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 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.
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 January 31, 2020), 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.
Credit Facility
Aggregate principal amounts outstanding under our Senior Secured Term Loan, Incremental Term Loan, and Senior Secured Revolver as of
September 30, 2019
, were
$869.1 million
, without regard to unamortized debt issuance costs. As of
September 30, 2019
, we had unused borrowing capacity of
$16.7 million
under the Senior Secured Revolver, subject to certain limitations. This amount of borrowing capacity is net of
$12.0 million
of outstanding letters of credit at
September 30, 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
$100.0 million
as of
September 30, 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
September 30, 2019
, annual interest payments would be
$30.6 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
September 30, 2019
, annual interest payments would be
$14.3 million
.
The Senior Secured Revolver bears interest on a variable rate structure with borrowings bearing interest at either one-month LIBOR plus an applicable margin of
3.50%
or the prime lending rate plus an applicable margin of
2.50%
. Based on the outstanding balance and weighted average interest rate at
September 30, 2019
, annual interest payments would be
$4.1 million
. We pay a commitment fee of
0.50%
for unused capacity under the Senior Secured Revolver.
Covenants
We had
$71.3 million
outstanding under the Senior Secured Revolver at
September 30, 2019
. Total capacity under the Senior Secured Revolver was
$100.0 million
as of
September 30,
2019
with
$16.7 million
available for future borrowings after reductions for outstanding letters of credit and outstanding borrowings as of
September 30,
2019
. Our credit facility is subject to certain financial covenants based on a consolidated net leverage ratio. 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
33
Table of Contents
time, and are dependent upon our operational and financial performance. If our operational or financial performance does not improve in line with our expectations, we may be required to take actions to reduce expenditures and decrease our net indebtedness to maintain compliance in future periods. We were in compliance with all covenants under our credit facility at
September 30,
2019
.
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 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
nine
months ended
September 30, 2019
, except as discussed in
Note 1
to the
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
included in this Quarterly Report.

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
September 30, 2019
, we had
$527.8 million
and
$270.0 million
of principal outstanding under the Senior Secured Term Loan and Incremental Term Loan, respectively, without regard to capitalized debt issuance costs. At
September 30, 2019
, a one-percent increase in the interest rate charged on outstanding variable rate borrowings under the Senior Secured Term Loan and Incremental Term Loan would increase interest expense for an annual period by approximately
$5.3 million
and
$2.7 million
, respectively.
At
September 30, 2019
, we had
$71.3 million
of principal outstanding under the Senior Secured Revolver, without regard to capitalized debt issuance costs. At
September 30, 2019
, a one-percent increase in the interest rate charged on outstanding variable rate borrowings under the Senior Secured Revolver would increase interest expense for an annual period by approximately
$0.7 million
.
Interest Rate Swaps and Hedging Activities
Our policy is to manage interest expense using a mixture of fixed and variable rate debt. To manage this mixture of fixed and variable rate debt effectively and mitigate interest rate risk, we may use interest rate swap agreements. The nature and amount of borrowings may vary as a result of future business requirements, market conditions, and other factors.
In February
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 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.

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
September 30, 2019
.
Item 4.
Controls and Procedures
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of management, including our Interim 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 Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of
September 30, 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 Interim 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 Interim Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that our condensed consolidated financial statements in this Quarterly Report present fairly, and in all material respects, our financial position, results of operations, and cash flows for the periods presented in conformity with U.S. GAAP.
Status of Remediation Efforts for the Unremediated Material Weakness
We have hired qualified professionals for critical roles within our finance department. We are also enhancing and installing new processes and systems to strengthen our internal control over financial reporting. After we integrate these professionals into our control environment and operate any new controls for a sufficient time period, we expect that the remediation of this material weakness will be completed.
Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting
There were no 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

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.
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
September 30, 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.
Securities Offering Matter
On November 1, 2019, Erie County Employees’ Retirement System, on behalf of a purported class of plaintiffs, filed a complaint in the Supreme Court of the State of New York, County of New York, against the Company, certain of the Company’s current and former officers and directors, and each of the underwriters involved in the Company’s public offering and sale of
14,375,000 shares
of its common stock pursuant to a preliminary prospectus supplement, dated September 10, 2018, a final prospectus supplement, dated September 13, 2018, and a base prospectus, dated April 19, 2017, relating to the Company’s effective shelf registration statement on Form S-3 (File No. 333-216737) (the “Offering”). The complaint alleges violations of Sections 11, 12(a)(2), and 15 of the Securities Act of 1933 in connection with the Offering. The plaintiffs seek to represent a class of stockholders who purchased shares of the Company’s common stock in the Offering. The complaint seeks unspecified monetary damages and other relief. The Company believes the complaint and allegations to be without merit and intends to vigorously defend itself against these actions. The Company is unable at this time to determine whether the outcome of the litigation would have a material impact on the Company’s financial position, results of operations, or cash flows.
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.
Item 1A.
Risk Factors
Except as noted below, there have been no material changes to the risk factors disclosed in the
2018
Annual Report under Item 1A. “Risk Factors.”
Doubts regarding our ability to continue as a going concern could have an adverse impact on our relationships with customers, vendors, suppliers, employees and others, which in turn could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition.
As previously described in this Quarterly Report, on October 20, 2019, the outstanding balance under our Senior Secured Revolver became a current liability, and we do not anticipate that we will be able to repay it, in full, without obtaining additional financing, which cannot be assured. This condition raises substantial doubt about the Company’s ability to continue as a going concern within one year after the date of issuance of these financial statements. Doubts regarding our ability to continue as a going concern could result in the loss of confidence by customers, vendors, suppliers, employees and others, which in turn could materially adversely affect our business, results of operations, and financial condition. Concerns about our
36

financial condition could adversely impact the payment terms we can obtain from some of our vendors and suppliers. We depend on our ability to retain our key employees at all levels of our business and on our ability to attract new qualified personnel. If we are unable to retain our key employees and we do not succeed in attracting new qualified personnel as a result of the uncertainty regarding our ability to continue as a going concern, our business and results of operations could suffer. Doubts regarding our ability to continue as a going concern may adversely impact our customers’ perceptions of our business and our continued viability, which in turn could further negatively impact our revenues. Further declines in our revenues as a result of these perceptions or otherwise would have a material adverse impact on our cash flows, results of operations, and financial condition.

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.
