NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(AMOUNTS IN THOUSANDS, EXCEPT PER SHARE DATA)
A.
Basis of Presentation and Other Information
The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by Twin Disc, Incorporated (the “Company”) pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) and, in the opinion of the Company, include adjustments, consisting primarily of normal recurring items, necessary for a fair statement of results for each period. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such SEC rules and regulations. The Company believes that the disclosures made are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. These financial statements should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for June 30, 2025. The prior year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States.
The Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Twin Disc, Incorporated and its wholly-owned domestic and foreign subsidiaries. The Company's reporting period ends on the last Friday of the quarterly calendar period. The Company's fiscal year ends on June 30, regardless of the day of the week on which June 30 falls. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated.
The condensed consolidated financial statements and information presented herein include the financial results of Kobelt Manufacturing Co. Ltd. (“Kobelt”). On February 14, 2025, the Company completed the acquisition of 100% of the outstanding common stock of Kobelt. Based in Surrey, British Columbia, Canada, Kobelt is a manufacturer of controls, propulsion, steering, and braking systems to the marine, oil and gas, and industrial markets. The provisional fair value estimates of Kobelt's deferred income taxes, property, plant and equipment, net and intangible assets, net, are pending final review by the Company, and Kobelt is included in the Company's manufacturing segment.
Recently Issued Not Yet Adopted Accounting Standards
In November 2024, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2024-03, “Income Statement—Reporting Comprehensive Income—Expense Disaggregation Disclosures” (“ASU 2024-03”) to expand expense disclosures by requiring disaggregated disclosure of certain income statement expense line items, including those that contain purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and amortization. ASU 2024-03 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2026, or the Company’s fiscal 2028, and subsequent interim periods, with early adoption permitted. The amendments should be applied prospectively, but retrospective application is permitted. The Company is currently assessing the impact of the requirements on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
Recently Adopted Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued guidance ASU 2023-09, Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures (“ASU 2023-09”), which includes requirements that an entity disclose specific categories in the rate reconciliation and provide additional information for reconciling items that are greater than five percent of the amount computed by multiplying pretax income (or loss) by the applicable statutory income rate. The standard also requires that entities disclose income (or loss) from continuing operations before income tax expense (or benefit) and income tax expense (or benefit) disaggregated between domestic and foreign. This change is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024. The Company will adopt the guidance for its 2026 annual report filed on Form 10-K, which will result in additional disclosures related to income tax but not impact the Company’s results of operations or financial position.
In November 2023, the FASB issued guidance ASU 2023-07, "Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures," which is intended to improve reportable segment disclosures, primarily through enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses. In addition, the amendments enhance interim disclosure requirements, clarify circumstances in which an entity can disclose multiple segment measures of profit or loss, provide new segment disclosure requirements for entities with a single reportable segment and contain other disclosure requirements. The Company adopted the new annual disclosures as required for fiscal 2025 and adopted the interim disclosures as required beginning with the first quarter of fiscal 2026.
Special Note Regarding Smaller Reporting Company Status
Under SEC Release 33-10513; 34-83550, Amendments to Smaller Reporting Company Definition, the Company qualifies as a smaller reporting company and accordingly, it has scaled some of its disclosures of financial and non-financial information in this quarterly report. The Company will continue to determine whether to provide additional scaled disclosures of financial or non-financial information in future quarterly reports, annual reports and/or proxy statements if it remains a smaller reporting company under SEC rules.
B.
Revenue
The Company reported the following contract assets and liabilities, which are presented within trade accounts receivable, net and accrued liabilities on the condensed balance sheets. Deferred revenue represents billings in excess of cost based on milestone billings in the contract.
The Company’s contracts are generally short term in nature, and therefore, the amount included in contract liabilities at the beginning of the year was recognized as revenue in the reporting period.
C.
Inventories, Net
The major classes of inventories were as follows:
Inventories:
Finished parts
Work in process
Raw materials
D.
Warranty
The Company engages in extensive product quality programs and processes, including actively monitoring and evaluating the quality of its suppliers. However, its warranty obligation is affected by product failure rates, the number of units affected by the failure and the expense involved in satisfactorily addressing the situation. The warranty reserve is established based on our best estimate of the amounts necessary to settle future and existing claims on products sold as of the balance sheet date. When evaluating the adequacy of the reserve for warranty costs, management takes into consideration the term of the warranty coverage, historical claim rates and costs of repair, knowledge of the type and volume of new products and economic trends. While we believe the warranty reserve is adequate and that the judgment applied is appropriate, such amounts estimated to be due and payable in the future could differ materially from what actually transpires. The following is a listing of the activity in the warranty reserve for the quarters ended September 26, 2025 and September 27, 2024:
September 27, 2024
Reserve balance, beginning of period
Current period expense and adjustments
Payments or credits to customers
Translation
Reserve balance, end of period
The current portion of the warranty accrual ($3,930 and $3,452 as of September 26, 2025 and September 27, 2024, respectively) is reflected in accrued liabilities, while the long-term portion ($964 and $998 as of September 26, 2025 and September 27, 2024, respectively) is included in other long-term liabilities on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.
E.
Contingencies
The Company is involved in litigation of which the ultimate outcome and liability to the Company, if any, is not presently determinable. Management believes that final disposition of such litigation will not have a material impact on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
F.
Business Segments
The Company and its subsidiaries are engaged in the manufacture and sale of marine and heavy duty off-highway power transmission equipment. Principal products include marine transmissions, azimuth drives, surface drives, propellers and boat management systems, as well as power-shift transmissions, hydraulic torque converters, power take-offs, industrial clutches and controls systems. The Company sells to both domestic and foreign customers in a variety of market areas, principally pleasure craft, commercial and military marine markets, energy and natural resources, government, and industrial markets.
The Company has two reportable segments: manufacturing and distribution. Its segment structure reflects the way chief operating decision-maker (“CODM”) makes operating decisions and manages the growth and profitability of the business. It also corresponds with the CODM’s approach of allocating resources and assessing the financial performance of its segments. The Company’s CODM is the Chief Executive Officer, who reviews financial information presented on a consolidated basis. The accounting practices of the segments are the same as those described in the summary of significant accounting policies. Transfers among segments are at established inter-company selling prices. The CODM evaluates the performance of its segments based on net sales, gross profit, operating income (loss), and net income (loss).
The following table presents the selected financial information with respect to the Company’s reportable segments as of September 26, 2025:

G.
Stock-Based Compensation
In the first quarter of fiscal 2025, the Company adopted the Twin Disc, Incorporated Amended and Restated 2021 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “Omnibus Plan”), which was subsequently approved by the Company’s shareholders. The Omnibus Plan amended and restated the Twin Disc, Incorporated 2021 Long-Term Incentive Plan (the “2021 LTI Plan”), and effectively replaced the Twin Disc, Incorporated 2020 Stock Incentive Plan for Non-Employee Directors (the “2020 Directors' Plan”). Benefits under the Omnibus Plan may be granted, awarded or paid in any one or a combination of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units, cash-settled restricted stock units, performance stock awards, performance stock unit awards, performance unit awards, and dividend equivalent awards. The Omnibus Plan is designed to benefit key employees (including officers) of the Company and its subsidiaries, as well as non-employee directors of the Company.
There is reserved for issuance under the Plan an aggregate of 1,636,550 shares of the Company’s common stock, which consists of the previously-approved 715,000 shares of common stock reserved for issuance under the 2021 LTI Plan prior to its amendment and restatement to become the Omnibus Plan; 521,550 shares of common stock that remained available for issuance under the 2020 Directors' Plan; and 400,000 newly authorized shares of common stock. Shares issued under the Omnibus Plan may be authorized and unissued shares or shares reacquired by the Company in the open market or a combination of both. The aggregate amount is subject to proportionate adjustments for stock dividends, stock splits and similar changes.
Performance Stock Awards (“PSA”)
During the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and 2025, the Company granted a target number of 166.5 and 116.1 PSAs, respectively, to various employees of the Company, including executive officers.
The fiscal 2026 PSAs will vest if the Company achieves performance-based target objectives relating to average return on invested capital and cumulative EBITDA (as defined in the PSA Grant Agreement), in the cumulative three fiscal year period ending June 30, 2028. These PSAs are subject to adjustment if the Company’s return on invested capital and cumulative EBITDA falls below or exceeds the specified target objective, and the maximum number of performance shares that can be awarded if the target objective is exceeded is 333.1. Based upon actual results to date, the Company is currently not accruing compensation expense for these PSAs.
The fiscal 2025 PSAs will vest if the Company achieves performance-based target objectives relating to average return on invested capital and cumulative EBITDA (as defined in the PSA Grant Agreement), in the cumulative three fiscal year period ending June 30, 2027. These PSAs are subject to adjustment if the Company’s return on invested capital and cumulative EBITDA falls below or exceeds the specified target objective, and the maximum number of performance shares that can be awarded if the target objective is exceeded is 232.2.
There were 396.4 and 350.0 unvested PSAs outstanding at September 26, 2025 and September 27, 2024, respectively. The fair value of the PSAs (on the date of grant) is expensed over the performance period for the shares that are expected to ultimately vest. Compensation expense of $378 and $659 was recognized for the quarters ended September 26, 2025 and September 27, 2024, respectively, related to PSAs. The weighted average grant date fair value of the unvested awards at September 26, 2025 was $11.12. At September 26, 2025, the Company had $2,736 of unrecognized compensation expense related to the unvested shares that would vest if the specified target objective was achieved for the fiscal 2026 and 2025 awards. The total fair value of PSAs vested as of September 26, 2025 and September 27, 2024 was $0.
Performance Stock Unit Awards (“PSUA”)
The PSUAs entitle an individual to shares of common stock of the Company or cash in lieu of shares of Company common stock if specific terms and conditions or restrictions are met through a specified date. The fiscal 2024 PSUAs will vest if the Company achieves performance-based target objectives relating to average return on invested capital and cumulative EBITDA (as defined in the PSUA Grant Agreement), in the cumulative three fiscal year period ending June 30, 2026. These PSUAs are subject to adjustment if the Company’s return on invested capital and cumulative EBITDA falls below or exceeds the specified target objective, and the maximum number of performance shares that can be awarded if the target objective is exceeded is 20.9.

The total fair value of PSUAs vested as of September 26, 2025 and September 27, 2024 was $0.
Restricted Stock Awards (“RS”)
The Company has unvested RS awards outstanding that will vest if certain service conditions are fulfilled. The fair value of the RS grants is recorded as compensation expense over the vesting period, which is generally 1 to 3 years. During the first quarter of fiscal 2026 and 2025, the Company granted 113.2 and 1.8 service based restricted shares, respectively. There were 233.2 and 244.4 unvested shares outstanding at September 26, 2025 and September 27, 2024, respectively.

As of September 26, 2025, the Company had $605 of unrecognized compensation expense related to restricted stock which will be recognized over the next three years.
H.
Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans
The Company has non-contributory, qualified defined benefit plans covering substantially all domestic employees hired prior to October 1, 2003 and certain foreign employees. Additionally, the Company provides healthcare and life insurance benefits for certain domestic retirees.
The components of the net periodic benefit cost for the defined benefit pension plans and the other postretirement benefit plan are as follows:
The service cost component is included in cost of goods sold and marketing, engineering and administrative expenses. All other components of net periodic benefit cost (gain) are included in other income (expense), net.
Pension Benefits:
Service cost
Prior Service cost
Interest cost
Expected return on plan assets
Amortization of transition obligation
Amortization of prior service cost (benefit)
Amortization of actuarial net loss (gain)
Net periodic benefit cost (gain)
Postretirement Benefits:
The Company expects to contribute approximately $705 to its pension plans in fiscal 2026. As of September 26 2025, the amount of $181 in contributions to the pension plans have been made.
The Company has reclassified $632 (net of $1 in taxes) of benefit plan adjustments from accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) during the quarter ended September 26, 2025, and $221 (net of $11 in taxes) during the quarter ended September 27, 2024. These reclassifications are included in the computation of net periodic benefit cost (gain).
I.
Income Taxes
Accounting policies for interim reporting require the Company to adjust its effective tax rate each quarter to be consistent with the estimated Annual Effective Tax Rate (AETR). Under this effective tax rate methodology, the Company applies an estimated annual income tax rate to its year-to-date ordinary earnings to derive its income tax provision each quarter. To calculate its AETR, an entity must estimate its ordinary income or loss and the related tax expense or benefit for its full fiscal year. In situations in which an entity is in a loss position and recognizes a full valuation allowance, the guidance in ASC 740-270-30-36a applies. Due to continued historical domestic and foreign immaterial jurisdiction losses and uncertain future earnings, the company continues to recognize a full valuation allowance for these entities. Permanent differences continue to fluctuate and are significant compared to projected ordinary income. Therefore, per ASC guidance, the fully valued domestic entity and the immaterial foreign jurisdiction was removed from the annualized effective rate calculation. Because of the full U.S. and foreign immaterial jurisdiction valuation allowance, these entities may only recognize tax benefit (expense) recorded for ASC 740-10 adjustments.
Foreign earnings (loss) , before income taxes of $998 and $854, respectively
Domestic and immaterial foreign jurisdiction earnings (loss), before income taxes of ($15) and ($227), respectively
Effective income tax rate
Due to the full U.S. and immaterial foreign jurisdiction allowance currently in place, no tax benefit can be recognized on the losses within those jurisdictions.
A discrete benefit was recorded during the period of ($14) related to the release of an uncertain tax position.
During the quarter ended September 26, 2025, the Company recorded a discrete tax expense of $147 for U.S. federal, state, and foreign withholding taxes associated with a planned repatriation from China for previously indefinitely reinvested earnings. The change in assertion was due to cash flow optimization. The impact of this discrete item increased the Company's foreign effective tax rate by 4.6% for the period. In prior periods, the Company had asserted indefinite reinvestment of these earnings and no deferred tax liability was recorded.
On July 4, 2025, the One Big Beautiful Bill Act (the "Act") was enacted and signed into law. The Act restores and makes permanent a number of corporate tax provisions, such as full expensing for U.S.-based research and development expenditures and capital investments, as well as certain changes to the U.S. taxation of foreign activity. The Company has evaluated the impact of the provisions and determined that while the legislation impacts the timing of certain tax deductions, it does not result in a material impact to the Company's effective tax rate.
J.

Credit Agreement Debt
Revolving loans (expire April 2027)
Term loan (due April 2027)
Subtotal
Less: current maturities
Total long-term debt
Credit Agreement Debt:
Current Credit Agreement
On February 14, 2025, the Company entered into an amended and restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of Montreal (the “Bank”) that refinances and replaces the credit agreement dated as of June 29, 2018, as amended, between the Company and BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (the “Prior Credit Agreement”). There were no significant financing costs associated with the credit agreement.
Pursuant to the Credit Agreement, the Bank made a Term Loan to the Company in the principal amount of $15.0 million, consisting of an assignment of a term loan under the Prior Credit Agreement from BMO to the Bank with a remaining principal of $8.5 million and an additional advance of $6.5 million. The maturity date of the Term Loan is April 1, 2027, and the Company is required to make principal installments on the Term Loan of at least $0.75 million per quarter. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company is restricted in making dividend payments beyond $5 million in any fiscal year.
In addition, the Company may, from time to time prior to the maturity date, enter into Revolving Loans in amounts not to exceed, in the aggregate and subject to a Borrowing Base, $50.0 million (the “Revolving Credit Commitment”). The Borrowing Base is the sum of (a) 85% of outstanding unpaid Eligible Receivables and (b) the lesser of $40.0 million for each fiscal month ending on or prior to August 31, 2025 (reduced to $35.0 million for each fiscal month ending on or prior to August 31, 2026, and further reduced to $32.5 million for each fiscal month ending thereafter) and 60% of Eligible Inventory for each fiscal month ending on or prior to August 31, 2025 (reduced to 55% of Eligible Inventory for each fiscal month ending on or prior to February 28, 2026, and 50% of Eligible Inventory for each fiscal month ending thereafter). The Credit Agreement also allows the Company to obtain Letters of Credit from the Bank, which if drawn upon by the beneficiary thereof and paid by the Bank, would become Revolving Loans. Under the Credit Agreement, the Company may not pay cash dividends on its common stock in excess of $5.0 million in any fiscal year. The term of the Revolving Loans under the Credit Agreement runs through April 1, 2027.
The Company used the increased borrowing capacity under the Credit Agreement to help finance its acquisition of Kobelt. Kobelt is included as a Borrower under the Credit Agreement, and may borrow directly under the Credit Agreement up to the lesser of the Revolving Credit Commitment or $25.0 million. For purposes of determining the Borrowing Base under the Credit Agreement, Eligible Receivables and Eligible Inventory of Kobelt are included.
Interest rates under the Credit Agreement are based on the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), the euro interbank offered rate (the “EURIBO Rate”), or the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate (the “CORRA”). Loans under the Credit Agreement are designated as either as “SOFR Loans,” which accrue interest at an Adjusted Term SOFR plus an Applicable Margin; “Eurodollar Loans,” which accrue interest at the EURIBO Rate plus an Applicable Margin; “Term CORRA Loans,” which accrue interest at an Adjusted Term CORRA plus an Applicable Margin; “Daily Compounded CORRA Loans,” which accrue interest at a Daily Compounded CORRA plus an Applicable Margin; or Canadian Prime Rate Loans,” which accrue interest at the Canadian Prime Rate plus an Applicable Margin. The Applicable Margins are between 2% and 3.5% for Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 2.125% and 3.625% for Term Loans; and .15% and .3% for the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company’s Total Funded Debt to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation and amortization (“EBITDA”) ratio).
The Credit Agreement requires the Company to meet certain financial covenants. Specifically, the Company’s Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio may not exceed 3.50 to 1.00, and the Company’s Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio may not be less than 1.10 to 1.00. In determining whether the Company is in compliance with its Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio, the Company’s EBITDA will include transaction expenses of up to $0.6 million for each of the Company’s Kobelt Acquisition and the Company’s prior Katsa acquisition, as well as pro-forma EBITDA of Katsa and Kobelt as permitted by the Bank. The Company’s Tangible Net Worth may not be less than $100.0 million plus 50% of positive Net Income for each fiscal year ending on or after June 30, 2024.
Borrowings under the Credit Agreement secured by substantially all of the Company’s and Kobelt’s personal property, including accounts receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment, and intellectual property. The Company has also pledged 65% of its equity interests in certain foreign subsidiaries. To effect these security interests, the Company entered into various amendment and assignment agreements that consent to the assignment to the Bank of certain agreements previously entered into between the Company and the Bank in connection with an April 22, 2016 credit agreement between the Company and the Bank, and further amended such agreements pursuant to the terms of the Credit Agreement. Specifically, the Company amended and agreed to the assignment to the Bank of a Security Agreement, IP Security Agreement, Pledge Agreement, Perfection Certificate, and Assignment as to Liens and Encumbrances. The Company also amended and assigned to the Bank a Negative Pledge Agreement, pursuant to which it agreed not to sell, lease or otherwise encumber real estate that it owns except as permitted by the Credit Agreement and the Negative Pledge Agreement. The Company also entered into a Collateral Assignment of Rights under Purchase Agreement for its acquisition of Kobelt. Borrowings under the Credit Agreement are also required to be guaranteed by each U.S. subsidiary of the Company.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, the Bank may take the following actions upon written notice to the Company: (1) terminate its remaining obligations under the Credit Agreement; (2) declare all amounts outstanding under the Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable; and (3) demand the Company to immediately Cash Collateralize L/C Obligations in an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate L/C Obligations or a greater amount if the Bank determines a greater amount is necessary. If such Event of Default is due to the Company’s bankruptcy, the Bank may take the three actions listed above without notice to the Company.
Prior Credit Agreement
The Prior Credit Agreement, which was replaced by the Credit Agreement on February 14, 2025, provided for the assignment and assumption of the previously existing loans under a 2016 credit agreement between the Company and Bank of Montreal (as amended, the “2016 Credit Agreement”) into a term loan (the “Prior Term Loan”) and revolving credit loans (each a “Prior Revolving Loan” and, collectively, the “Prior Revolving Loans,” and, together with the Prior Term Loan, the “Prior Loans”). Pursuant to the Prior Credit Agreement, BMO agreed to make the Prior Term Loan to the Company in a principal amount not to exceed $35.0 million and the Company could, from time to time prior to the maturity date, enter into Prior Revolving Loans in amounts not to exceed, in the aggregate, $50.0 million (the “Prior Revolving Credit Commitment”), subject to a Borrowing Base based on Eligible Inventory and Eligible Receivables. Subsequent amendments to the Prior Credit Agreement reduced the Prior Term Loan to $20.0 million, extended the maturity date of the Prior Term Loan to April 1, 2027, and required the Company to make principal installment payments on the Prior Term Loan of $0.5 million per quarter. Subsequent amendments to the Prior Credit Agreement (prior to the Tenth Amendment to the Prior Credit Agreement discussed below) incrementally decreased BMO’s Prior Revolving Credit Commitment to $40.0 million. The Prior Credit Agreement also allowed the Company to obtain Letters of Credit from BMO, which if drawn upon by the beneficiary thereof and paid by BMO, would become Prior Revolving Loans. Under the Prior Credit Agreement, the Company was prohibited from paying cash dividends on its common stock in excess of $5.0 million in any fiscal year.
Under the Prior Credit Agreement as amended, interest rates were based on either the SOFR or the EURIBO Rate. Prior Loans were designated either as “SOFR Loans,” which accrued interest at an Adjusted Term SOFR plus an Applicable Margin, or “Eurodollar Loans,” which accrued interest at the EURIBO Rate plus an Applicable Margin. Amounts drawn on a Letter of Credit that were not timely reimbursed to the Bank bore interest at a Base Rate plus an Applicable Margin. The Company also paid a commitment fee on the average daily Unused Revolving Credit Commitment equal to an Applicable Margin. Immediately prior to February 14, 2025, the Applicable Margins were between 2% and 3.5% for Prior Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 2.125% and 3.625% for Prior Term Loans; and 0.15% and 0.3% for the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company’s Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio).
The Prior Credit Agreement, as amended, required the Company to meet certain financial covenants. Specifically, the Company’s Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio could not exceed 3.50 to 1.00, and the Company’s Fixed Charge Coverage Ratio could not be less than 1.10 to 1.00. In determining whether the Company was in compliance with its Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio, the Company’s EBITDA included transaction expenses of up to $0.6 million for the Katsa acquisition, as well as pro-forma EBITDA of Katsa as permitted by the Bank. The Company’s Tangible Net Worth could not be less than $100.0 million plus 50% of positive Net Income for each fiscal year ending on or after June 30, 2024.
Borrowings under the Prior Credit Agreement were secured by substantially all of the Company’s personal property, including accounts receivable, inventory, machinery and equipment, and intellectual property. The Company had also pledged 100% of its equity interests in certain domestic subsidiaries and 65% of its equity interests in certain foreign subsidiaries. The Company had also entered into a Collateral Assignment of Rights under Purchase Agreement for its acquisition of Veth Propulsion. To effect these security interests, the Company entered into various amendment and assignment agreements that consent to the assignment of certain agreements previously entered into between the Company and the Bank of Montreal in connection with the 2016 Credit Agreement. The Company also amended and assigned to BMO a Negative Pledge Agreement that it has previously entered into with Bank of Montreal, pursuant to which it agreed not to sell, lease or otherwise encumber real estate that it owns except as permitted by the Credit Agreement and the Negative Pledge Agreement.
The Company had also entered into a Deposit Account Control Agreement with the Bank, reflecting the Bank’s security interest in deposit accounts the Company maintains with the Bank. The Bank could not provide a notice of exclusive control of a deposit account (thereby obtaining exclusive control of the account) prior to the occurrence or existence of a Default or an Event of Default under the Credit Agreement or otherwise upon the occurrence or existence of an event or condition that would, but for the passage of time or the giving of notice, constitute a Default or an Event of Default under the Prior Credit Agreement.
Upon the occurrence of an Event of Default, BMO could take the following actions upon written notice to the Company: (1) terminate its remaining obligations under the Prior Credit Agreement; (2) declare all amounts outstanding under the Prior Credit Agreement to be immediately due and payable; and (3) demand the Company to immediately Cash Collateralize L/C Obligations in an amount equal to 105% of the aggregate L/C Obligations or a greater amount if BMO determines a greater amount is necessary. If such Event of Default is due to the Company’s bankruptcy, BMO could take the three actions listed above without notice to the Company.
On April 1, 2024, the Company had entered into Amendment No. 10 to Prior Credit Agreement (the “Tenth Amendment”) that amended and extended the Prior Credit Agreement. The Tenth Amendment increased the Prior Revolving Credit Commitment from $40.0 million to $45.0 million, and also increased the Borrowing Base for Prior Revolving Loans from the sum of (a) 85% of outstanding unpaid Eligible Receivable and (b) the lesser of $30.0 million and 50% of Eligible Inventory to the sum of (a) 85% of outstanding unpaid Eligible Receivables and (b) the lesser of $35.0 million (reduced to $32.5 million beginning with the first quarter of the 2026 fiscal year) and 60% of Eligible Inventory (reduced to 55% of Eligible Inventory beginning with the third quarter of the 2025 fiscal year, and 50% of Eligible Inventory beginning with the first quarter of the 2026 fiscal year).
The Company used the increased borrowing capacity under the Tenth Amendment to help finance its acquisition of Katsa by TD Finland Holding Oy, a wholly-owned subsidiary of the Company. The Tenth Amendment specifically permitted the Company to use Prior Revolving Loans for the Katsa acquisition. In addition, in determining whether the Company is in compliance with its Total Funded Debt/EBITDA Ratio, the Company’s EBITDA included transaction expenses of up to $0.6 million for the Katsa acquisition, as well as pro-forma EBITDA of Katsa as permitted by the Bank.
The Tenth Amendment also extended the Prior Credit Agreement through April 1, 2027 and extended the maturity date of the Prior Term Loan and the Prior Term Loan Commitment Date to April 1, 2027.
The Tenth Amendment also increased the Applicable Margins under the Prior Credit Agreement for purposes of determining interest rates on Prior Revolving Loans, Letters of Credit, Prior Term Loans, and the Prior Unused Revolving Credit Commitment. Prior to the Tenth Amendment, the Applicable Margins were between 1.25% and 2.75% for Prior Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 1.375% and 2.875% for Prior Term Loans; and .10% and .15% for the Prior Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company’s Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio). Under the Tenth Amendment, the Applicable Margins were between 2% and 3.5% for Prior Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 2.125% and 3.625% for Prior Term Loans; and .15% and .3% for the Prior Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company’s Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio).
The Company remains in compliance with its liquidity and other covenants.
As of September 26, 2025, current maturities include $3,000 of term loan payments due within the coming year.
Other: During the quarter ended September 26, 2025, the average interest rate was 6.73% on the Term Loan, and 5.26% on the Revolving Loans.
As of September 26, 2025, the Company’s borrowing capacity on the Revolving Loans under the terms of the Credit Agreement was $46,337, and the Company had approximately $16,143 available borrowings. In addition to the Credit Agreement, the Company has established unsecured lines of credit that are used from time to time to secure certain performance obligations by the Company.
The Company’s borrowings described above approximate fair value at September 26, 2025 and June 30, 2025. If measured at fair value in the financial statements, long-term debt (including the current portion) would be classified as Level 2 in the fair value hierarchy.
The Company is party to an interest rate swap arrangement with Bank of Montreal, with an initial notional amount of $20,000 and a maturity date of March 4, 2026 to hedge the Term Loan. As of September 26, 2025, the notional amount was $7,500. This swap has been designated as a cash flow hedge under ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging. This swap is included in the disclosures in Note O, Derivative Financial Instruments.
During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company designated its euro denominated Revolving Loan as a net investment hedge to mitigate the risk of variability in its euro denominated net investments in wholly-owned foreign companies. Effective upon the designation, all changes in the fair value of the euro revolver are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss along with the foreign currency translation adjustments on those foreign investments. This net investment hedge is included in the disclosures in Note O, Derivative Financial Instruments.

Earnings Per Share
The Company calculates basic earnings per share (“EPS”) based upon the weighted average number of common shares outstanding during the period, while the calculation of diluted EPS includes the dilutive effect of potential common shares outstanding during the period. The calculation of diluted EPS excludes all potential common shares if their inclusion would have an anti-dilutive effect. Certain restricted stock award recipients have a non-forfeitable right to receive dividends declared by the Company and are therefore included in computing EPS pursuant to the two-class method.
The components of basic and diluted EPS were as follows:
Basic:
Weighted average shares outstanding - basic
Basic earnings (loss) per share:
Diluted:

The following potential common shares were excluded from diluted EPS for the quarter ended September 26, 2025 as the Company reported a net loss: 229.9 related to the Company’s unvested PSAs, 8.0 related to the Company’s unvested PSUA awards, 233.2 related to the Company’s unvested RS awards, and 79.2 related to the Company’s unvested RSUs.
The following potential common shares were excluded from diluted EPS for the quarter ended September 27, 2024 as the Company reported a net loss: 84.5 related to the Company’s unvested PSAs, 0.0 related to the Company’s unvested PSUA awards, 157.2 related to the Company’s unvested RS awards, and 103.2 related to the Company’s unvested RSUs.
N.
Lease Liabilities
The Company leases certain office and warehouse space, as well as production and office equipment.
The Company determines if an arrangement is a lease at contract inception. The lease term begins upon lease commencement, which is when the Company takes possession of the asset, and may include options to extend or terminate the lease when it is reasonably certain that such options will be exercised. As its lease agreements typically do not provide an implicit rate, the Company primarily uses an incremental borrowing rate based upon the information available at lease commencement. In determining the incremental borrowing rate, the Company considers its current borrowing rate, the term of the lease, and the economic environments where the lease activity is concentrated. Some of the Company’s leases contain non-lease components (e.g., common area, other maintenance costs, etc.) that relate to the lease components of the agreement. Non-lease components and the lease components to which they relate are accounted for as a single lease component.
The following table provides a summary of leases recorded on the condensed consolidated balance sheets.

O.
Derivative Financial Instruments
From time to time, the Company enters into derivative instruments to manage volatility arising from risks relating to interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates. The Company does not purchase, hold or sell derivative financial instruments for trading purposes. The Company’s practice is to terminate derivative transactions if the underlying asset or liability matures or is sold or terminated, or if it determines the underlying forecasted transaction is no longer probable of occurring.
The Company reports all derivative instruments on its condensed consolidated balance sheets at fair value and establishes criteria for designation and effectiveness of transactions entered into for hedging purposes.
Interest Rate Swap Contracts
The Company has one outstanding interest rate swap contract as of September 26, 2025, with a notional amount of $7,500. It has been designated as a cash flow hedge in accordance with ASC 815, Derivatives and Hedging.
The primary purpose of the Company’s cash flow hedging activities is to manage the potential changes in value associated with interest payments on the Company’s SOFR-based indebtedness. The Company records gains and losses on interest rate swap contracts qualifying as cash flow hedges in accumulated other comprehensive loss to the extent that these hedges are effective and until the Company recognizes the underlying transactions in net earnings, at which time these gains and losses are recognized in interest expense on its condensed consolidated statements of operations and comprehensive income (loss). Cash flows from derivative financial instruments are classified as cash flows from financing activities on the condensed consolidated statements of cash flows. These contracts generally have original maturities of greater than twelve months.
Net unrealized after-tax gains (loss) related to cash flow hedging activities that were included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) were $253 and $284 as of September 26, 2025, and June 30, 2025, respectively. The unrealized amounts in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will fluctuate based on changes in the fair value of open contracts during each reporting period.
The Company estimates that $43 of net unrealized gain (loss) related to cash flow hedging activities included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) will be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months.
Derivatives Designated as Net Investment Hedges
The Company is exposed to foreign currency exchange risk related to its investment in net assets in foreign countries. As discussed in Note K, Long-term Debt, during the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, the Company designated its euro denominated Revolving Loan, with a notional amount of €13,000, as a net investment hedge to mitigate the risk of variability in its euro denominated net investments in wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries. All changes in the fair value of the euro revolver were then recorded in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) along with the foreign currency translation adjustments on those foreign investments. Net unrealized after-tax gains (loss) related to net investment hedging activities that were included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss) were $0 and ($129) as of September 26, 2025 and June 30, 2025, respectively.

Item 2. Management Discussion and Analysis
In the financial review that follows, we discuss our results of operations, financial condition and certain other information. This discussion should be read in conjunction with our condensed consolidated financial statements as of September 26, 2025, and related notes, as reported in Item 1 of this Quarterly Report.
Some of the statements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q are “forward-looking statements” as defined in the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include the Company’s description of plans and objectives for future operations and assumptions behind those plans. The words “anticipates,” “believes,” “intends,” “estimates,” and “expects,” or similar anticipatory expressions, usually identify forward-looking statements. In addition, goals established by the Company should not be viewed as guarantees or promises of future performance. There can be no assurance the Company will be successful in achieving its goals.
In addition to the assumptions and information referred to specifically in the forward-looking statements, other factors, including but not limited to those factors discussed under Item 1A, Risk Factors, of the Company’s Annual Report filed on Form 10-K for June 30, 2025, as supplemented in this Quarterly Report, could cause actual results to be materially different from what is expressed or implied in any forward-looking statement.
Results of Operations
(In thousands)
Quarter Ended
% of Net Sales
Comparison of the First Quarter of Fiscal 2026 with the First Quarter of Fiscal 2025
Net sales for the first quarter increased 9.7%, or $7.1 million, to $80.0 million from $72.9 million in the same quarter a year ago. The acquisition of Kobelt, completed in the third quarter of fiscal 2025, contributed $3.1 million of additional revenue in the quarter. The remaining increase primarily reflects continued growth in demand for the company’s Veth propulsion systems. Global sales of marine and propulsion products improved 14.6% from the prior year, largely on the strength of the Veth product demand. Sales of industrial products improved 13.2% from the prior year first quarter, with a significant contribution from the Kobelt acquisition. Shipments of off-highway transmission products improved slightly (1.5%), with generally stable demand across end markets. The North American region saw a significant increase in revenue ($8.7 million or 48.9%) thanks to the acquisition of Kobelt and expansion of Veth product sales into the region. Sales into Europe increased 6.8%, or $2.0 million, on growing demand for the Veth product. The Asia Pacific region declined 14.5%, or $2.4 million, on weaker commercial marine demand and reduced shipments of oilfield transmissions into China. Currency translation had a favorable impact on first quarter fiscal 2026 sales compared to the first quarter of the prior year totaling $3.2 million primarily due to the strengthening of the euro against the U.S. dollar.
Sales at our manufacturing segment increased 17.0%, or $10.7 million, versus the same quarter last year. The Company’s new Canadian acquisition, Kobelt, contributed $3.1 million of incremental revenue. The U.S. manufacturing operations experienced a 1.4%, or $0.4 million, decrease in sales versus the first fiscal quarter of 2025, driven by a reduction in aftermarket demand. The Company’s operation in the Netherlands saw increased revenue of $6.8 million (43.6%) compared to the first fiscal quarter of 2025, as this operation continues to ramp up production to meet record demand for its propulsion systems. The Company’s Finnish operation saw an increase in revenue ($0.7 million or 7.7%) as demand for European defense applications continues to improve. The Company’s Belgian operation saw a decrease compared to the prior year first quarter (16.2% or $0.8 million), with weaker demand for its marine transmission products. The Company’s Italian manufacturing operation was up $0.6 million (16.7%) compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025, due primarily to some strengthening demand for marine products in the region. The Company’s Swiss manufacturing operation, which supplies customized propellers for the global mega yacht and patrol boat markets, was up $0.7 million (44.4%) compared to the prior year first quarter.
Our distribution segment experienced a decrease in sales of $7.8 million (26.4%) in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to the first quarter of fiscal 2025. The Company’s Asian distribution operations in Singapore, China and Japan were down 24.7% or $2.9 million from the prior year on reduced demand for commercial marine products. The Company’s North America distribution operation saw a $2.1 million decrease (41.6%) on reduced demand for European produced goods, somewhat impacted by the changing tariff structure. Similarly, the Company’s European distribution operation saw a significant decrease ($2.5 million or 45.5%) on reduced activity in commercial marine projects. The Company’s distribution operation in Australia and New Zealand, which provides boat accessories, propulsion and marine transmission systems for the pleasure craft market, saw a slight decrease in revenue (3.0% from the prior year first fiscal quarter), on relatively stable demand.
Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2026 improved to 28.7%, compared to 26.5% for the same period last year. The improvement in the current year first quarter compared to the prior year result reflects the impact of additional volume and the success of margin improvement initiatives across the manufacturing operations.
For the fiscal 2026 first quarter, marketing, engineering and administrative (“ME&A”) expenses, as a percentage of sales, were 25.9%, compared to 26.7% for the fiscal 2025 first quarter. ME&A expenses increased $1.2 million (6.2%) over the same period last fiscal year. The increase in ME&A spending for the quarter was comprised of the addition of Kobelt ($0.6 million) and a currency translation impact ($0.5 million).
Interest expense was up $0.2 million to $0.8 million in the first quarter of fiscal 2026, with a higher average outstanding revolver balance following the Katsa and Kobelt acquisitions.
Other expense of $0.9 million for the first fiscal quarter was primarily attributable to a currency loss ($0.2 million) and pension amortization expense ($0.7 million).
The fiscal 2026 first quarter effective tax rate was 172.2% compared to (29.2%) in the prior fiscal year first quarter. The full domestic valuation allowance provides for a very volatile effective tax rate. This, along with the mix of foreign earnings by jurisdiction, resulted in the change to the effective tax rate.
Financial Condition, Liquidity and Capital Resources
Comparison between September 26, 2025 and June 30, 2025
As of September 26, 2025, the Company had net working capital of $132.3 million, which represents an increase of $11.2 million, or 9.3%, from the net working capital of $121.1 million as of June 30, 2025.
Cash decreased by $1.9 million to $14.2 million as of September 26, 2025, versus $16.1 million as of June 30, 2025. As of September 26, 2025, the majority of the cash is at the Company’s overseas operations in Europe ($4.4 million) and Asia-Pacific ($9.1 million).
Trade receivables of $63.9 million were up $5.0 million, or 8.5%, when compared to last fiscal year-end. The impact of foreign currency translation was to decrease accounts receivable by $0.4 million versus June 30, 2025. As a percent of sales, trade receivables finished at 79.9% in the first quarter of fiscal 2026 compared to 70.7% for the comparable period in fiscal 2025 and 61.0% for the fourth quarter of fiscal 2025.
Inventories increased by $6.3 million, or 4.2%, versus June 30, 2025 to $158.3 million. The impact of foreign currency translation was to decrease inventories by $1.1 million versus June 30, 2025. The largest increase came at our domestic operation ($3.9 million) due to delayed shipments. Our operation in the Netherlands increased $1.3 million in support of growing backlog for the Veth product, also impacted by delayed shipment of a large project. The Singapore distribution entity experienced a $2.0 million increase related to customer delays of deliveries on oilfield transmissions into China. Our operation in Finland saw a $1.3 million increase driven by growing demand for product in the defense market. Our Australian distribution operation saw a $1.0 million decrease in inventory. On a consolidated basis, as of September 26, 2025, the Company’s backlog of orders to be shipped over the next six months approximates $163.3 million, compared to $150.5 million at June 30, 2025 and $144.3 million at September 27, 2024. As a percentage of six-month backlog, inventory has decreased from 101% at June 30, 2025 to 97% at September 26, 2025.
Net property, plant and equipment increased $0.6 million (0.8%) to $70.2 million versus $69.6 million at June 30, 2025. The Company had capital spending of $3.4 million in the quarter. This increase was offset by depreciation of $2.3 million and an unfavorable exchange impact of $0.3 million. Capital spending occurring in the first quarter was primarily related to replacement capital, along with capital to drive growth and operating efficiencies. In total, the Company expects to invest between $15 and $17 million in capital assets in fiscal 2026. The Company continues to review its capital plans based on overall market conditions and availability of capital, and may make changes to its capital plans accordingly. The Company’s capital program is focused on modernizing key core manufacturing, assembly and testing processes and improving efficiencies at its facilities around the world.
Accounts payable as of September 26, 2025 of $37.1 million was down $1.7 million, or 4.3%, from June 30, 2025. The impact of foreign currency translation was to decrease accounts payable by $0.3 million versus June 30, 2025. The remaining decrease is primarily related to the normal timing of inventory receipts and payments within the quarter.
Total borrowings and long-term debt as of September 26, 2025 increased $12.3 million to $43.7 million versus $31.4 million at June 30, 2025. During the first quarter, the Company reported negative free cash flow of $11.0 million (defined as operating cash flow less acquisitions of fixed assets), driven by unfavorable working capital movement related primarily to inventory, the payment of the annual bonus for fiscal 2025, timing of trade receivable receipts and capital spending. The Company ended the quarter with total debt, net of cash, of $29.5 million, compared to $15.3 million at June 30, 2025, for a net degradation of $14.2 million.
Total equity decreased $3.5 million, or 2.1%, to $160.9 million as of September 26, 2025. The net loss during the first quarter decreased equity by $0.4 million, along with an unfavorable foreign currency translation of $2.4 million. The net change in common stock and treasury stock resulting from the accounting for stock-based compensation decreased equity by $0.8 million. The quarterly dividend decreased equity by $0.6 million. The net remaining increase in equity of $0.7 million primarily represents the amortization of net actuarial loss and prior service cost on the Company’s defined benefit pension plans, along with the unrealized gain on cash flow hedges.
On February 14, 2025, the Company entered into an amended and restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”) with Bank of Montreal (the “Bank”) that refinances and replaces the credit agreement dated as of June 29, 2018, as amended, between the Company and BMO Harris Bank, N.A. (the “Prior Credit Agreement”).
Interest rates under the Credit Agreement are based on the secured overnight financing rate (“SOFR”), the euro interbank offered rate (the “EURIBO Rate”), or the Canadian Overnight Repo Rate Average (the “CORRA”). Loans under the Credit Agreement are designated as either as “SOFR Loans,” which accrue interest at an Adjusted Term SOFR plus an Applicable Margin; “Eurodollar Loans,” which accrue interest at the EURIBO Rate plus an Applicable Margin; “Term CORRA Loans,” which accrue interest at an Adjusted Term CORRA plus an Applicable Margin; “Daily Compounded CORRA Loans,” which accrue interest at a Daily Compounded CORRA plus an Applicable Margin; or Canadian Prime Rate Loans,” which accrue interest at the Canadian Prime Rate plus an Applicable Margin. The Applicable Margins are between 2% and 3.5% for Revolving Loans and Letters of Credit; 2.125% and 3.625% for Term Loans; and .15% and .3% for the Unused Revolving Credit Commitment (each depending on the Company’s Total Funded Debt to EBITDA ratio).
Management believes that available cash, the Credit Agreement, the unsecured lines of credit, cash generated from future operations, and potential access to debt markets will be adequate to fund the Company's cash and capital requirements for the foreseeable future.
Other significant contractual obligations as of September 26, 2025 are disclosed in Note N "Lease Liabilities" in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1 of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. There are no material undisclosed guarantees. As of September 26, 2025, the Company had no additional material purchase obligations other than those created in the ordinary course of business related to inventory and property, plant, and equipment, which generally have terms of less than 90 days. The Company has long-term obligations related to its postretirement plans which are discussed in detail in Note H "Pension and Other Postretirement Benefit Plans” in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements in Part I, Item 1of this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Postretirement medical claims are paid by the Company as they are submitted. In fiscal 2026, the Company expects to contribute $0.5 million to postretirement benefits based on actuarial estimates; however, these amounts can vary significantly from year to year because the Company is self-insured. In fiscal 2026, the Company expects to contribute $0.7 million to its defined benefit pension plans. The Company does not have any material off-balance sheet arrangements.
