HEICO CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS – UNAUDITED
1.
SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of HEICO Corporation and its subsidiaries (collectively, “HEICO,” or the “Company”) have been prepared in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. Therefore, the condensed consolidated financial statements do not include all information and footnotes normally included in annual consolidated financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2023. The October 31, 2023 Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet has been derived from the Company’s audited consolidated financial statements. In the opinion of management, the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements contain all adjustments (consisting principally of normal recurring accruals) necessary for a fair presentation of the condensed consolidated balance sheets, statements of operations, statements of comprehensive income, statements of shareholders' equity and statements of cash flows for such interim periods presented. The results of operations for the nine months ended July 31, 2024 are not necessarily indicative of the results which may be expected for the entire fiscal year.
The Company has two operating segments: the Flight Support Group (“FSG”), consisting of HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and HEICO Flight Support Corp. ("HFSC") and their respective subsidiaries; and the Electronic Technologies Group (“ETG”), consisting of HEICO Electronic Technologies Corp. ("HEICO Electronic") and its subsidiaries.
New Accounting Pronouncements
In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") 2023-07, “Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures,” which expands reportable segment disclosure requirements by requiring disclosures of significant reportable segment expenses that are regularly provided to the Chief Operating Decision Maker (“CODM”) and included within each reported measure of a segment's profit or loss. The ASU also requires disclosure of the title and position of the individual identified as the CODM and an explanation of how the CODM uses the reported measures of a segment's profit or loss in assessing segment performance and deciding how to allocate resources. Additionally, ASU 2023-07 requires all segment profit or loss and assets disclosures to be provided on an annual and interim basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, or in fiscal 2025 for HEICO, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning one year later.

ACQUISITIONS
In December 2023, the Company, through a subsidiary of HFSC, entered into an exclusive license and acquired certain assets for the capability to support the Boeing 737NG/777 Cockpit Display and Legacy Displays product lines from Honeywell International. The transaction provides the HFSC subsidiary with the exclusive capability to produce, sell, and repair Boeing 737NG/777 Cockpit Displays as well as other Legacy Displays for Boeing 717, ATR, and select business and general aviation aircraft. The purchase price of this acquisition was paid in cash using proceeds from the Company's revolving credit facility and is not material or significant to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
In May 2024, the Company, through the same subsidiary of HFSC that completed the above referenced acquisition in December 2023, completed a second arrangement with Honeywell International under which it acquired licenses and certain assets to further enhance the manufacturing of new products, including screens for a military variant of the Boeing 737NG/777 Cockpit Display and Legacy Displays product lines. The purchase price was paid in cash using cash provided by operating activities and is not material or significant to the Company's condensed consolidated financial statements.
The allocation of the total consideration for the fiscal 2024 acquisitions to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired is preliminary until the Company obtains final information regarding their fair values. However, the Company does not expect any adjustment to such allocations to be material to the Company's consolidated financial statements. The operating results of the fiscal 2024 acquisitions were included in the Company’s results of operations as of each effective acquisition date. The amount of net sales and earnings of the fiscal 2024 acquisitions included in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Operations for the nine and three months ended July 31, 2024, is not material. Had the fiscal 2024 acquisitions occurred as of November 1, 2022, net sales, net income from consolidated operations, net income attributable to HEICO, and basic and diluted net income per share attributable to HEICO

Redeemable Noncontrolling Interests
The holders of equity interests in certain of the Company's subsidiaries have rights ("Put Rights") that may be exercised on varying dates causing the Company to purchase their equity interests through fiscal 2032. The Put Rights, all of which relate either to common shares or membership interests in limited liability companies, provide that the cash consideration to be paid for their equity interests (the "Redemption Amount") be at fair value or a formula that management intended to reasonably approximate fair value based solely on a multiple of future earnings over a measurement period.

9.95
% equity interest in May 2024.
During fiscal 2024, the holders of a
15
% noncontrolling equity interest in a subsidiary of the ETG that was acquired in fiscal 2019 exercised their option to cause the Company to purchase their noncontrolling interest over a four-year period ending in fiscal 2027. Accordingly, the Company acquired one-fourth of such interest in March 2024, which increased the Company's ownership interest in the subsidiary to
88.75
%.
During fiscal 2022, the holder of a
19.9
% noncontrolling equity interest in a subsidiary of the FSG that was acquired in fiscal 2015 exercised their option to cause the Company to purchase their noncontrolling interest over a four-year period ending in fiscal 2026. In December 2023, the Company acquired an additional one-fourth of such interest, which increased the Company's ownership interest in the subsidiary to

REVENUE
Contract Balances
Contract assets (unbilled receivables) represent revenue recognized on contracts using an over-time recognition model in excess of amounts invoiced to the customer. Contract liabilities (deferred revenue) represent customer advances and billings in excess of revenue recognized and are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities and other long-term liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

The decrease in the Company's contract assets during the first nine months of fiscal 2024 principally reflects billings on certain customer contracts in excess of amounts recorded as unbilled receivables on certain other customer contracts using an over-time revenue recognition model, mainly at the ETG.
The increase in the Company's total contract liabilities during the first nine months of fiscal 2024 principally reflects the receipt of advance deposits on certain customer contracts, mainly at the FSG.
The amount of revenue that the Company recognized during the nine and three months ended July 31, 2024 that was included in contract liabilities as of the beginning of fiscal 2024 was $
51.3
million and $
8.4
million, respectively.

Remaining Performance Obligations
Backlog, which the Company believes to be the equivalent of its remaining performance obligations, represents contractually committed or firm customer orders. As of July 31, 2024, the Company had $
1,862.7
million of remaining performance obligations associated with firm contracts pertaining to the majority of the products offered by the FSG and ETG. The Company will recognize net sales as these obligations are satisfied. The Company expects to recognize $
542.8

INCOME TAXES
The Company's effective tax rate decreased to
17.3
% in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, down from
19.0
% in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The decrease in the Company's effective tax rate principally reflects a larger tax benefit from stock option exercises recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. The Company recognized a discrete tax benefit from stock
17
Index
option exercises in both the first quarter of fiscal 2024 and 2023 of $
13.6
million and $
6.2
million, respectively. Additionally, the decrease in the Company's effective tax rate reflects the prior year unfavorable impact of the portion of acquisition expenses that was not deductible for income tax purposes.
The Company's effective tax rate decreased to
18.0
% in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, down from
18.4
% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The decrease in the Company's effective tax rate principally reflects the prior year unfavorable impact of the portion of acquisition expenses that was not deductible for income tax purposes.

Index
represent cash surrender values of life insurance policies, which derive their fair values from investments in mutual funds that are managed by an insurance company, and are classified within Level 2 and valued using a market approach. Certain other assets of the LCP represent an investment in a money market fund that is classified within Level 1. The assets of the LCP are held within an irrevocable trust and classified within other assets in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The related liabilities of the LCP are included within other long-term liabilities and accrued expenses and other current liabilities in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets and have an aggregate value of $
307.4
million as of July 31, 2024 and $
226.2
million as of October 31, 2023.
In connection with a fiscal 2023 acquisition that is part of the FSG, the Company assumed an agreement which may have obligated it to pay contingent consideration of $
17.5
million if certain operating entities of the acquired company met a calendar year 2023 earnings objective and obtained a certain level of new orders with deliveries scheduled in calendar year 2024, of which both targets were tied to a specific customer contract. Both requirements were met as of October 31, 2023. However, payment of the earnout was also predicated on no indication of a significant change with respect to the underlying customer agreement. In the second quarter of fiscal 2024, the customer notified the Company that it intends to reduce its future orders. As a result, the parties to this agreement agreed to settle on a specific contingent consideration amount of $
11.0
million. Accordingly, the $
17.3
million estimated fair value of the contingent consideration as of October 31, 2023 was reduced to $
11.0
million as of April 30, 2024 and paid in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
As part of the agreement to acquire
80.36
% of the stock of a subsidiary by the ETG in fiscal 2022, the Company may be obligated to pay contingent consideration of up to $
12.1
million in fiscal 2027 based on the earnings of the acquired entity during fiscal years 2025 and 2026 provided the entity meets a certain earnings objective during each of fiscal years 2024 to 2026. Based on the fiscal 2024 forecasted earnings of the acquired entity, the Company does not expect that the required earnings objective will be met. Accordingly, the $
5.5
million estimated fair value of the contingent consideration as of October 31, 2023 was reversed in the third quarter of fiscal 2024.
As part of the agreement to acquire
96
% of the stock of a subsidiary by the FSG in fiscal 2022, the Company may be obligated to pay contingent consideration of up to $
27.4
million in fiscal 2027 based on the earnings of the acquired entity during fiscal years 2025 and 2026 provided the entity meets certain earnings objectives during each of fiscal years 2022 to 2024. As of July 31, 2024, the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was $
21.1
million.
As part of the agreement to acquire
74
% of the membership interests of a subsidiary by the FSG in fiscal 2022, the Company would be obligated to pay contingent consideration of $
14.1
million in fiscal 2027 only if the acquired entity met a certain earnings objective during the five-year period following the acquisition. Based on the actual earnings of the acquired entity subsequent to the acquisition and forecasted earnings over the remainder of the earnout period, the Company does not expect that the required earnings objective will be met. Accordingly, as
19
Index
of July 31, 2024 and October 31, 2023, the Company did not accrue any contingent consideration for this agreement.
As part of the agreement to acquire
89.99
% of the equity interests of a subsidiary by the ETG in fiscal 2020, the Company may be obligated to pay contingent consideration of up to CAD $
13.5
million, or $
9.8
million, in fiscal 2025 should the acquired entity meet certain earnings objectives during fiscal 2023 and 2024. As of July 31, 2024, the estimated fair value of the contingent consideration was CAD $
11.2
million, or $
8.1
million.
As part of the agreement to acquire a subsidiary by the ETG in fiscal 2017, the Company paid contingent consideration of $
20.0
million in December 2023 as the acquired entity met a certain earnings objective during the first six years following the acquisition.

The carrying amounts of the Company’s cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, trade accounts payable and accrued expenses and other current liabilities approximate fair value as of July 31, 2024 due to the relatively short maturity of the respective instruments. The carrying amount of borrowings under the Company's credit facility approximates fair value due to its variable interest rate. See Note 5, Short-Term and Long-Term Debt, for the estimated fair value of the Company’s senior unsecured notes.
During the third quarter of fiscal 2024, a non-amortizing trade name within the ETG was measured at fair value on a nonrecurring basis, resulting in the recognition of an impairment loss of $
6.0
million (see Note 4, Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets).

Item 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Overview
This discussion of our financial condition and results of operations should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements and notes thereto included herein. The preparation of consolidated financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities as of the date of the consolidated financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates if different assumptions were used or different events ultimately transpire.
Our critical accounting estimates, which require management to make judgments about matters that are inherently uncertain, are described in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations,” under the heading “Critical Accounting Estimates” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2023. Based on our recent assessment, we no longer deem revenue recognition to be a critical accounting estimate. Historically, the majority of our revenue was recognized at a point-in-time and involved minimal estimates to determine when control had transferred. We now recognize an even greater portion of our revenue at a point-in-time as a result of the acquisitions of Wencor Group and Exxelia International SAS in fiscal 2023. Additionally, we do not believe that the factors involving estimation uncertainty that are used when we recognize revenue using an over-time recognition model for certain contracts are reasonably likely to have a material impact on our financial position or results of operations. Other than the removal of revenue recognition, there have been no material changes to our critical accounting estimates during the nine months ended July 31, 2024.
Our business is comprised of two operating segments: the Flight Support Group (“FSG”), consisting of HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and HEICO Flight Support Corp. and their respective subsidiaries; and the Electronic Technologies Group (“ETG”), consisting of HEICO Electronic Technologies Corp. and its subsidiaries.
Our results of operations for the nine and three months ended July 31, 2024 have been affected by the fiscal 2023 acquisitions as further detailed in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2023 and the fiscal 2024 acquisitions as further detailed in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of this quarterly report.

Comparison of First Nine Months of Fiscal 2024 to First Nine Months of Fiscal 2023
Net Sales
Our consolidated net sales in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 increased by 40% to a record $2,844.0 million, up from net sales of $2,031.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The increase in consolidated net sales principally reflects an increase of $779.1 million (a 67% increase) to a record $1,947.6 million in net sales of the FSG and an increase of $44.7 million (a 5% increase) to a record $927.4 million in net sales of the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects $625.5 million contributed by fiscal 2023 and 2024 acquisitions as well as strong organic growth of 13%. The FSG's organic net sales growth reflects increased demand within its aftermarket replacement parts, repair and overhaul parts and services, and specialty products product lines resulting in net sales increases of $124.7 million, $19.1 million and $9.7 million, respectively. The net sales increase in the ETG includes $39.4 million contributed by a fiscal 2023 acquisition, partially offset by a 1% organic net sales decline. The ETG's organic net sales decline is mainly attributable to decreased demand for its other electronics and medical products resulting in net sales decreases of $42.5 million and $14.2 million, respectively, partially offset by increased demand for its defense and aerospace products resulting in net sales increases of $38.8 million and $13.0 million, respectively. Although sales price changes were not a significant contributing factor to the change in net sales of the FSG and ETG in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, continued cost inflation may lead to higher sales prices during the remainder of fiscal 2024.
Gross Profit and Operating Expenses
Our consolidated gross profit margin improved to 39.0% in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, up from 38.8% in the first nine months of fiscal 2023, principally reflecting increases of 1.0% and .4% in the ETG's and FSG's gross profit margin, respectively. The increase in the ETG's gross profit margin principally reflects the previously mentioned higher net sales of defense and aerospace products, partially offset by the previously mentioned decrease in net sales of other electronics and medical products. The increase in the FSG's gross profit margin principally reflects the previously mentioned higher net sales within our aftermarket replacement parts and repair and overhaul parts and services product lines. Total new product research and development expenses included within our consolidated cost of sales were $82.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, up from $68.5 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2023.
Our consolidated selling, general and administrative ("SG&A") expenses were $502.0 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, as compared to $353.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The increase in consolidated SG&A expenses principally reflects $114.5 million attributable to our fiscal 2023 and 2024 acquisitions, inclusive of $31.5 million of intangible asset amortization expense. Additionally, the increase in consolidated SG&A expenses includes costs incurred to support the previously mentioned net sales growth resulting in increases of $25.9 million and $7.4 million in other general and administrative expenses and other selling expenses, respectively, and a $9.1 million prior year impact from the amendment
28
Index
and termination of a contingent consideration agreement pertaining to a fiscal 2021 acquisition, partially offset by an $8.1 million decrease in acquisition costs.
Our consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales were 17.7% in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, as compared to 17.4% in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The increase in consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales principally reflects a .5% impact and a .4% impact from the previously mentioned higher intangible asset amortization expense and amendment and termination of a contingent consideration agreement, respectively, partially offset by a .4% impact from the previously mentioned lower acquisition costs.
Operating Income
Our consolidated operating income increased by 39% to a record $605.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, up from $435.9 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The increase in consolidated operating income principally reflects a $165.9 million increase (a 61% increase) to a record $438.6 million in operating income of the FSG and a $7.7 million increase (a 4% increase) to a record $206.4 million in operating income of the ETG. The increase in operating income of the FSG principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth and improved gross profit margin, partially offset by a $35.5 million increase in intangible asset amortization expense and a $9.1 million prior year impact from the previously mentioned termination of a contingent consideration agreement. The increase in operating income of the ETG principally reflects the previously mentioned favorable gross profit margin and net sales growth, partially offset by a lower level of SG&A efficiencies.
Our consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales was 21.3% in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, as compared to 21.5% in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The decrease in consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects a decrease in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales to 22.5% in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, as compared to 23.3% in the first nine months of fiscal 2023 and a decrease in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales to 22.3% in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, as compared to 22.5% in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The decrease in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects a 1.2% impact from the previously mentioned higher intangible asset amortization expense and a .8% prior year impact from the previously mentioned amendment and termination of a contingent consideration agreement, partially offset by a .6% impact from lower performance-based compensation expense as a percentage of net sales and the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin. The decrease in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects a 1.2% impact from an increase in SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales reflecting the previously mentioned lower level of efficiencies, which was partially offset by the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin.
29
Index
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased to $113.9 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, as compared to $29.6 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The increase in interest expense was principally due to an increase in the amount of outstanding debt related to fiscal 2023 acquisitions.
Other Income
Other income in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 and 2023 was not material.
Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate decreased to 17.3% in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, down from 19.0% in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The decrease in our effective tax rate principally reflects a larger tax benefit from stock option exercises recognized in the first quarter of fiscal 2024. We recognized a discrete tax benefit from stock option exercises in both the first quarter of fiscal 2024 and 2023 of $13.6 million and $6.2 million, respectively. Additionally, the decrease in our effective tax rate reflects the prior year unfavorable impact of the portion of acquisition expenses that was not deductible for income tax purposes.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests relates to the 20% noncontrolling interest held by Lufthansa Technik AG in HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and the noncontrolling interests held by others in certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $33.8 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, as compared to $30.6 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests principally reflects improved operating results of certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG in which noncontrolling interests are held.

Net income attributable to HEICO increased by 25% to a record $374.4 million, or $2.67 per diluted share, in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, up from $300.2 million, or $2.17 per diluted share, in the first nine months of fiscal 2023 principally reflecting the previously mentioned higher consolidated operating income, partially offset by the previously mentioned higher interest expense.

Comparison of Third Quarter of Fiscal 2024 to Third Quarter of Fiscal 2023
Net Sales
Our consolidated net sales in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 increased by 37% to a record $992.2 million, up from net sales of $722.9 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase in consolidated net sales principally reflects an increase of $276.6 million (a 68% increase) to a record $681.6 million in net sales of the FSG partially offset by a $3.7 million decrease (a 1% decrease) to $322.1 million in net sales of the ETG. The net sales increase in the FSG reflects $216.9 million contributed by fiscal 2023 and 2024 acquisitions as well as strong organic growth of 15%. The FSG's organic net sales growth reflects increased demand within its aftermarket replacement parts, specialty products, and repair and overhaul parts and services product lines resulting in net sales increases of $41.8 million, $13.9 million, and $4.1 million, respectively. The net sales decrease in the ETG principally reflects a 2% organic net sales decline mainly attributable to decreased demand for its other electronics and medical products resulting in net sales decreases of $22.8 million and $5.1 million, respectively, partially offset by increased demand for its defense, space, and aerospace products resulting in net sales increases of $12.1 million, $3.0 million, and $2.9 million, respectively. Although sales price changes were not a significant contributing factor to the change in net sales of the FSG and ETG in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, continued cost inflation may lead to higher sales prices during the remainder of fiscal 2024.
Gross Profit and Operating Expenses
Our consolidated gross profit margin improved to 39.2% in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, up from 38.6% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023, principally reflecting increases of 1.3% and 1.1% in the ETG's and FSG's gross profit margin, respectively. The increase in the ETG's gross profit margin principally reflects the previously mentioned increase in net sales of defense, aerospace, and space products, partially offset by the previously mentioned decrease in net sales of other electronics products. The increase in the FSG's gross profit margin principally reflects the previously mentioned higher net sales within our aftermarket replacement parts and repair and overhaul parts and services product lines. Total new product research and development expenses included within our consolidated cost of sales were $29.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, up from $25.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023.
Our consolidated SG&A expenses were $172.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, as compared to $129.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase in consolidated SG&A expenses principally reflects $34.6 million attributable to our fiscal 2023 and 2024 acquisitions, inclusive of $10.4 million of intangible asset amortization expense. Additionally, the increase in consolidated SG&A expenses includes costs incurred to support the previously mentioned net sales growth resulting in increases of $7.0 million and $1.8 million in other general and administrative expenses and other selling expenses, respectively.
Our consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 17.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, down from 17.9% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The decrease in
31
Index
consolidated SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales principally reflects a higher level of efficiencies resulting from the previously mentioned net sales growth and a .4% impact from a decrease in acquisition costs, partially offset by a .5% impact from the previously mentioned higher intangible asset amortization expense.
Operating Income
Our consolidated operating income increased by 45% to a record $216.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, up from $149.4 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase in consolidated operating income principally reflects a $64.4 million increase (a 72% increase) to a record $153.6 million in operating income of the FSG and a $1.6 million increase (a 2% increase) to $75.8 million in operating income of the ETG. The increase in operating income of the FSG principally reflects the previously mentioned net sales growth and improved gross profit margin, partially offset by a $12.5 million increase in intangible asset amortization expense. The increase in operating income of the ETG principally reflects the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin, partially offset by a lower level of SG&A efficiencies.
Our consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales was 21.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, up from 20.7% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase in consolidated operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects an increase in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales to 23.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, up from 22.8% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 and an increase in the FSG’s operating income as a percentage of net sales to 22.5% in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, up from 22.0% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase in the ETG's operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin, partially offset by a lower level of SG&A efficiencies. The increase in the FSG's operating income as a percentage of net sales principally reflects the previously mentioned improved gross profit margin and a .8% impact from lower acquisition costs, partially offset by a 1.3% impact from the previously mentioned higher intangible asset amortization expense.
Interest Expense
Interest expense increased to $36.8 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, as compared to $12.1 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase in interest expense was principally due to an increase in the amount of outstanding debt related to fiscal 2023 acquisitions.
Other Income
Other income in the third quarter of fiscal 2024 and 2023 was not material.
32
Index
Income Tax Expense
Our effective tax rate decreased to 18.0% in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, down from 18.4% in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The decrease in our effective tax rate principally reflects the prior year unfavorable impact of the portion of acquisition expenses that was not deductible for income tax purposes.
Net Income Attributable to Noncontrolling Interests
Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests relates to the 20% noncontrolling interest held by Lufthansa Technik AG in HEICO Aerospace Holdings Corp. and the noncontrolling interests held by others in certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG. Net income attributable to noncontrolling interests was $11.2 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, as compared to $10.7 million in the third quarter of fiscal 2023. The increase in net income attributable to noncontrolling interests principally reflects improved operating results of certain subsidiaries of the FSG and ETG in which noncontrolling interests are held.
Net Income Attributable to HEICO
Net income attributable to HEICO increased by 34% to a record $136.6 million, or $.97 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2024, up from $102.0 million, or $.74 per diluted share, in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 principally reflecting the previously mentioned higher consolidated operating income, partially offset by the previously mentioned higher interest expense.
Outlook
As we look ahead to the remainder of fiscal 2024, we remain optimistic about achieving net sales growth in both the FSG and ETG. This growth is expected to be largely fueled by the contributions from our fiscal 2023 and 2024 acquisitions, along with sustained demand for the majority of our products. Additionally, we are committed to ongoing product and service innovation, further market penetration, and maintaining our financial strength and flexibility.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our principal uses of cash include acquisitions, capital expenditures, interest payments, cash dividends, distributions to noncontrolling interests and working capital needs. We continue to estimate fiscal 2024 capital expenditures to be approximately $60 to $65 million. We finance our activities primarily from our operating and financing activities, including borrowings under our revolving credit facility. The revolving credit facility and senior unsecured notes contain both financial and non-financial covenants. As of July 31, 2024, we were in compliance with all such covenants and our total debt to shareholders’ equity ratio was 62.8%.
33
Index
Based on our current outlook, we believe that net cash provided by operating activities and available borrowings under our revolving credit facility will be sufficient to fund our cash requirements for at least the next twelve months.
Operating Activities
Net cash provided by operating activities was $466.7 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 and consisted primarily of net income from consolidated operations of $408.2 million, depreciation and amortization expense of $130.6 million (a non-cash item), net changes of $39.9 million included in the "Other" caption (principally the receipt of advance deposits on certain long-term customer contracts), and net changes in other long-term liabilities and assets related to the HEICO Corporation Leadership Compensation Plan (the "LCP") of $19.6 million (principally participant deferrals and employer contributions), partially offset by a $133.0 million increase in net working capital. The increase in net working capital is inclusive of a $102.2 million increase in inventories to support an increase in consolidated backlog, a $15.3 million increase in accounts receivable from the previously mentioned higher net sales and the timing of collections, and a $14.8 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets.
Net cash provided by operating activities increased by $166.4 million (a 55% increase) in the first nine months of fiscal 2024, up from $300.4 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2023. The increase is principally attributable to a $77.4 million increase in net income from consolidated operations, a $49.0 million increase in the "Other" caption mainly from the previously mentioned receipt of advance long-term customer deposits in fiscal 2024, a $44.3 million increase in depreciation and amortization expense, a $9.1 million prior year impact from the amendment and termination of a contingent consideration agreement, a $7.8 million increase in net changes in other long-term liabilities and assets related to the LCP and a $7.7 million decrease in deferred income tax benefits, partially offset by a $29.6 million increase in net working capital mainly reflecting a $16.1 million increase in prepaid expenses and other current assets and a $15.5 million increase in inventories.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities totaled $112.2 million in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 and related primarily to acquisitions of $55.2 million, capital expenditures of $42.2 million and LCP funding of $16.5 million. Further details regarding our fiscal 2024 acquisitions may be found in Note 2, Acquisitions, of the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Financing Activities
Net cash used in financing activities in the first nine months of fiscal 2024 totaled $324.0 million. During the first nine months of fiscal 2024, we made $255.0 million of payments on our revolving credit facility, paid $29.1 million of cash dividends on our common stock, paid $26.6 million to acquire certain noncontrolling interests, and made $24.8 million of contingent consideration payments, $23.3 million of distributions to noncontrolling interests, and $13.9

million of net payments on short-term debt, partially offset by $50.0 million of borrowings on our revolving credit facility to fund a fiscal 2024 acquisition.
Other Obligations and Commitments
There have not been any material changes to our other obligations and commitments that were included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended October 31, 2023.

Guarantor Group Summarized Financial Information
On July 27, 2023, we completed the public offer and sale of senior unsecured notes, which consisted of $600 million principal amount of 5.25% Senior Notes due August 1, 2028 (the "2028 Notes") and $600 million principal amount of 5.35% Senior Notes due August 1, 2033 (the "2033 Notes" and, collectively with the 2028 Notes, the "Notes"). The Notes are fully and unconditionally guaranteed on a senior unsecured basis by all of our existing and future subsidiaries that guarantee our obligations under our revolving credit facility ("Credit Facility") (the “Guarantor Group”).
The Notes were issued pursuant to an Indenture, dated as of July 27, 2023 (the “Base Indenture”), between HEICO and certain of its subsidiaries (collectively, the "Subsidiary Guarantors") and Truist Bank, as trustee (the “Trustee”), as supplemented by a First Supplemental Indenture, dated as of July 27, 2023 (the “First Supplemental Indenture” and, together with the Base Indenture, the “Indenture”), between us, the Subsidiary Guarantors and the Trustee. The Notes are direct, unsecured senior obligations of HEICO and rank equally in right of payment with all of our existing and future senior unsecured indebtedness. Each Subsidiary Guarantor is owned either directly or indirectly by the Company and jointly and severally guarantee our obligations under the Notes. None of the Subsidiary Guarantors are organized outside of the U.S.
Under the Indenture, holders of the Notes will be deemed to have consented to the release of a subsidiary guarantee provided by a subsidiary guarantor, without any action required on the part of the Trustee or any holder of the Notes, upon such subsidiary guarantor ceasing to guarantee or to be an obligor with respect to the Credit Facility. Accordingly, if the lenders under the Credit Facility release a subsidiary guarantor from its guarantee of, or obligations as a borrower under, the Credit Facility, the obligations of the subsidiary guarantors to guarantee the Notes will immediately terminate. If any of our future subsidiaries incur obligations under the Credit Facility while the Notes are outstanding, then such subsidiary will be required to guarantee the Notes.
35
Index
In addition, a subsidiary guarantor will be released and relieved from all its obligations under its subsidiary guarantee in the following circumstances, each of which is permitted by the indenture:
•
upon the sale or other disposition (including by way of consolidation or merger), in one transaction or a series of related transactions, of a majority of the total voting stock of such subsidiary guarantor (other than to us or any of our affiliates); or
•
upon the sale or disposition of all or substantially all the property of such subsidiary guarantor (other than to any of our affiliates or another subsidiary guarantor);
provided, however, that, in each case, such transaction is permitted by the Credit Facility and after giving effect to such transaction, such subsidiary guarantor is no longer liable for any subsidiary guarantee or other obligations in respect of the Credit Facility. The subsidiary guarantee of a subsidiary guarantor also will be released if we exercise our legal defeasance, covenant defeasance option or discharge the Indenture.
We conduct our operations almost entirely through our subsidiaries. Accordingly, the Guarantor Group’s cash flow and ability to service any guaranteed registered debt securities will depend on the earnings of our subsidiaries and the distribution of those earnings to the Guarantor Group, including the earnings of the non-guarantor subsidiaries, whether by dividends, loans or otherwise. Holders of the guaranteed registered debt securities will have a direct claim only against the Guarantor Group.
The following tables include summarized financial information for the Guarantor Group (in thousands). The information for the Guarantor Group is presented on a combined basis, excluding intercompany balances and transactions between us and the Guarantor Group and excluding investments in and equity in the earnings of non-guarantor subsidiaries. The Guarantor Group’s amounts due from, amounts due to, and transactions with non-guarantor subsidiaries have been presented in separate line items. The consolidating schedules are provided in accordance with the reporting requirements of Rule 13-01 under SEC Regulation S-X for the issuer and guarantor subsidiaries.

All statements contained herein that are not clearly historical in nature may be forward-looking and the words “anticipate,” “believe,” “expect,” “estimate” and similar expressions are generally intended to identify forward-looking statements. Any forward-looking statement contained herein, in press releases, written statements or other documents filed with the Securities and Exchange Commission or in communications and discussions with investors and analysts in the normal course of business through meetings, phone calls and conference calls, concerning our operations, economic performance and financial condition are subject to risks, uncertainties and contingencies. We have based these forward-looking statements on our current expectations and projections about future events. All forward-looking statements involve risks and uncertainties, many of which are beyond our control, which may cause actual results, performance or achievements to differ materially from anticipated results, performance or achievements. Also, forward-looking statements are based upon management’s estimates of fair values and of future costs, using currently available information.

•
The severity, magnitude and duration of public health threats, such as the COVID-19 pandemic;
•
Our liquidity and the amount and timing of cash generation;
•
Lower commercial air travel, airline fleet changes or airline purchasing decisions, which could cause lower demand for our goods and services;
37
Index
•
Product specification costs and requirements, which could cause an increase to our costs to complete contracts;
•
Governmental and regulatory demands, export policies and restrictions, reductions in defense, space or homeland security spending by U.S. and/or foreign customers or competition from existing and new competitors, which could reduce our sales;
•
Our ability to introduce new products and services at profitable pricing levels, which could reduce our sales or sales growth;
•
Product development or manufacturing difficulties, which could increase our product development and manufacturing costs and delay sales;
•
Cyber security events or other disruptions of our information technology systems could adversely affect our business; and
•
Our ability to make acquisitions, including obtaining any applicable domestic and/or foreign governmental approvals, and achieve operating synergies from acquired businesses; customer credit risk; interest, foreign currency exchange and income tax rates; and economic conditions, including the effects of inflation, within and outside of the aviation, defense, space, medical, telecommunications and electronics industries, which could negatively impact our costs and revenues.
