KIMBALL INTERNATIONAL, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of Presentation
The accompanying unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Kimball International, Inc. (the “Company,” “Kimball International,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) have been prepared in accordance with the instructions to Form 10-Q. As such, certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted, although we believe that the disclosures are adequate to make the information presented not misleading. Intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated. Management believes the financial statements include all adjustments (consisting only of normal recurring adjustments) considered necessary to present fairly the financial statements for the interim periods. The results of operations for the interim periods shown in this report are not necessarily indicative of results for any future interim period or for the entire fiscal year. It is suggested that these financial statements be read in conjunction with the financial statements and the notes thereto included in our latest annual report on Form 10-K.
Note 2. Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Supplemental Information
Recently Adopted Accounting Pronouncements:
In March 2017, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued guidance that will shorten the amortization period for certain callable debt securities held at a premium to the earliest call date. This guidance does not require an accounting change for securities held at a discount. The guidance was effective for our first quarter of fiscal year 2020. The adoption did not have a material effect on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In February 2016, the FASB issued guidance that revises the accounting for leases. The guidance is intended to improve financial reporting of leasing transactions by requiring lessees to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet. Leases will continue to be classified as either operating or finance leases, with the classification affecting the pattern of expense recognition in the statement of income. The guidance also requires additional disclosures to help investors and other financial statement users better understand the amount, timing, and uncertainty of cash flows arising from leases. In January 2018, the FASB issued additional guidance for land easements which permits entities to forgo the evaluation of existing land easement arrangements to determine if they contain a lease. New land easement arrangements, or modifications to existing arrangements, after the adoption of the lease standard will be evaluated to determine if they meet the definition of a lease. In July 2018, the FASB amended the new standard to clarify certain aspects of the guidance, and they also issued another new standard in July 2018 that allows the option to apply the transition provisions at the adoption date instead of at the earliest comparative period in the condensed consolidated financial statements. In March 2019, the FASB issued clarifying guidance regarding interim transition disclosures. We adopted this lease guidance as of the beginning of our fiscal year 2020. We have assessed our portfolio of leases and compiled a central repository of leases, recording a right-of-use asset and a lease liability for all leases with a lease term of greater than twelve months. All changes required by the new standard, including accounting policies, controls, and disclosures, have been identified and implemented. See Note 6 - Leases in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted:
In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance on a customer’s accounting for implementation, set-up, and other upfront costs incurred in a cloud computing arrangement that is hosted by the vendor. Under the new guidance, customers will apply the same criteria for capitalizing implementation costs as they would for an arrangement that has a software license. The guidance is effective for our first quarter of fiscal year 2021 with early adoption permitted. Entities can choose to adopt the guidance prospectively to eligible costs incurred on or after the date this guidance is first applied or retrospectively. We have not yet determined the effect of this guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In August 2018, the FASB issued guidance which changes the fair value measurement disclosure requirements. The guidance modifies and removes certain disclosures related to the fair value hierarchy, and adds new disclosure requirements such as disclosing the changes in unrealized gains and losses included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value measurements and disclosing the range and weighted average of significant unobservable inputs used to develop Level 3 fair value measurements. The guidance is effective for our first quarter of fiscal year 2021 with early adoption permitted and should

8



be applied retrospectively except for certain disclosures. We have not yet determined the effect of this guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
In June 2016, the FASB issued guidance on the measurement of credit losses on financial instruments. Under the guidance, an entity recognizes as an allowance its estimate of expected credit losses, which the FASB believes will result in more timely recognition of such losses. The guidance is also intended to reduce the complexity by decreasing the number of credit impairment models that entities use to account for debt instruments. In May 2019, the FASB amended the new standard to allow entities to elect the fair value option on certain financial instruments that were previously recorded at amortized cost. In November 2019, the FASB amended the new standard to extend the disclosure relief for accrued interest receivable balances to additional relevant disclosures involving amortized cost basis. The guidance is effective for our first quarter of fiscal year 2021 with early adoption in our fiscal year 2020 permitted. We have not yet determined the effect of this guidance on our condensed consolidated financial statements.
Goodwill and Other Intangible Assets:
Goodwill represents the difference between the purchase price and the related underlying tangible and intangible net asset fair values resulting from business acquisitions. Goodwill is assigned to and the fair value is tested at the reporting unit level. Annually, or if conditions indicate an earlier review is necessary, we may assess qualitative factors to determine if it is more likely than not that the fair value is less than its carrying amount. We also have the option to bypass the qualitative assessment and proceed directly to performing the quantitative goodwill impairment test which compares the carrying value of the reporting unit to the reporting unit’s fair value to identify impairment. Under the quantitative assessment, if the fair value of the reporting unit is less than the carrying value, goodwill is written down to its fair value. The fair value is established primarily using a discounted cash flow analysis and secondarily a market approach utilizing current industry information. The calculation of the fair value of the reporting unit considers current market conditions existing at the assessment date. As of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 our goodwill totaled $11.2 million. During the quarter ended December 31, 2019, we assessed goodwill for impairment, and no goodwill impairment was recognized.
Other Intangible Assets reported on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets consist of capitalized software, customer relationships, trade names, and non-compete agreements. Intangible assets are reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that the carrying value may not be recoverable over the remaining lives of the assets. A summary of intangible assets subject to amortization is as follows:

Amortization expense related to intangible assets was, in thousands, $547 and $1,068 during the quarter and year-to-date period ended December 31, 2019, and $484 and $959 during the quarter and year-to-date period ended December 31, 2018. Amortization expense in future periods is expected to be, in thousands, $1,143 for the remainder of fiscal year 2020, and $1,955, $1,616, $1,373, and $1,201 in the four years ending June 30, 2024, and $5,222 thereafter. The estimated useful life of capitalized software ranges from 3 to 10 years. The amortization period for customer relationship intangible assets is 20 years. The estimated useful life of trade names is 10 years. The estimated useful life of non-compete agreements is 5 years.
Capitalized software is stated at cost less accumulated amortization and is amortized using the straight-line method. During the software application development stage, capitalized costs include external consulting costs, cost of software licenses, and internal payroll and payroll-related costs for employees who are directly associated with a software project. Upgrades and enhancements are capitalized if they result in added functionality which enable the software to perform tasks it was previously incapable of performing. Software maintenance, training, data conversion, and business process re-engineering costs are expensed in the period in which they are incurred.

Trade names and non-compete agreements are amortized on a straight-line basis over their estimated useful lives. Capitalized customer relationships are amortized based on estimated attrition rates of customers. We have no intangible assets with indefinite useful lives which are not subject to amortization.
Notes Receivable and Trade Accounts Receivable:
Notes receivable and trade accounts receivable are recorded per the terms of the agreement or sale, and accrued interest is recognized when earned. We determine on a case-by-case basis the cessation of accruing interest, the resumption of accruing interest, the method of recording payments received on nonaccrual receivables, and the delinquency status for our limited number of notes receivable.
Our policy for estimating the allowance for credit losses on trade accounts receivable and notes receivable includes analysis of such items as aging, credit worthiness, payment history, and historical bad debt experience. Management uses these specific analyses in conjunction with an evaluation of the general economic and market conditions to determine the final allowance for credit losses on the trade accounts receivable and notes receivable. Trade accounts receivable and notes receivable are written off after exhaustive collection efforts occur and the receivable is deemed uncollectible. Our limited amount of notes receivable allows management to monitor the risks, credit quality indicators, collectability, and probability of impairment on an individual basis. Adjustments to the allowance for credit losses are recorded in selling and administrative expenses. Customary terms require payment within 30 days, with terms beyond 30 days being considered extended.
Non-operating Income (Expense), net:
The non-operating income (expense), net line item includes the impact of such items as fair value adjustments on Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan (“SERP”) investments, amortization of actuarial income, bank charges, and other miscellaneous non-operating income and expense items that are not directly related to operations. The gain or loss on SERP investments is offset by a change in the SERP liability that is recognized in selling and administrative expenses.

Note 3. Restructuring
Transformation Restructuring Plan:
In June 2019, we announced a transformation restructuring plan that is expected to optimize resources for future growth, improve efficiency, and build capabilities across our organization. We believe the transformation restructuring plan will establish a more cost-efficient structure to better align our operations with our long-term strategic goals. The transformation restructuring plan includes the following:
Our overall manufacturing facility footprint is being reviewed to reduce excess capacity and gain efficiencies by centralizing manufacturing operations. We plan to exit a leased seating manufacturing facility in Martinsville, Virginia as well as a David Edward production facility in Red Lion, Pennsylvania in the second half of fiscal year 2020 and are evaluating our production capabilities and capacity across our organization to identify additional opportunities.
The creation of center-led functions for finance, human resources, information technology and legal functions is expected to result in the standardization of processes and the elimination of duplication. In addition, we are centralizing our supply chain efforts to maximize supplier value and plan to drive more efficient practices and operations within our logistics function.
Kimball brand selling resources were reallocated to higher-growth markets. We also ceased use of four leased furniture showrooms across our brands during the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 and recognized impairment of the leases and associated leasehold improvements.

10



The efforts are expected to generate annualized pre-tax savings of approximately $10.0 million when the transformation restructuring plan is fully implemented. We estimate that pre-tax restructuring charges incurred through the end of fiscal year 2020 will be approximately $9.0 million to $10.0 million. The restructuring charges are expected to consist of approximately $3.7 million to $4.0 million for severance and other employee-related costs, $2.5 million to $3.0 million for facility exit and other costs, and $2.8 million to $3.0 million for asset impairment. Approximately 65% of the total cost estimate is expected to be cash expense.

To date, we have recognized $6.7 million of restructuring costs related to the Transformation Restructuring Plan. We expect this restructuring plan to be complete by June 30, 2020. It is currently estimated that this plan will incur an additional $2.3 million to $3.3 million of future restructuring charges.
We utilized available market prices and management estimates to determine the fair value of impaired assets. Restructuring is included in the Restructuring Expense line item on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.
Note 4. Acquisition
On October 26, 2018, we acquired substantially all the assets and assumed certain specified limited liabilities of David Edward headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland. David Edward is a premier designer and manufacturer of contract furniture, sold in the healthcare, corporate, education, and premium hospitality markets. The David Edward product portfolio consists of classic and contemporary designs, focused primarily in the seating, tables, and ancillary furniture categories. In conjunction with the asset acquisition, we leased two existing David Edward production facilities in Baltimore, Maryland and Red Lion, Pennsylvania. The purchase price allocation did not change from the amounts disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for 2019 and is final.

We report revenue under a single aggregated reportable segment consisting of three operating segments which have similar products and services in nature, utilize similar production and distribution processes, and share similar long-term economic characteristics.
Contract Balances
Receivables in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets represent the amount of consideration to which we are entitled in exchange for the goods or services sold to our customers, net of allowances for doubtful accounts. Receivables are recorded when the right to consideration from the customer becomes unconditional, which is generally upon billing or upon satisfaction of a performance obligation, whichever is earlier.
We also receive deposits from certain customers before revenue is recognized, resulting in the recognition of a contract liability reported as Customer Deposits in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Customer deposits are typically utilized within a year of the receipt of the deposit. The amount of revenue recognized during the six months ended December 31, 2019 that was included in the June 30, 2019 customer deposit balance was $24.0 million.
Note 6. Leases
At the beginning of our fiscal year 2020, we adopted new accounting guidance (“ASC 842”) regarding leases on a prospective basis. This guidance requires lessees to record right-of-use assets and corresponding lease liabilities on the balance sheet. The effects of the initial application did not result in a cumulative adjustment to retained earnings. We recognize lease liabilities at the lease commencement date based upon the present value of the remaining lease payments. Right-of-use assets are based on the lease liability adjusted for prepaid rent, deferred rent, and tenant allowances received. Lease liabilities are amortized based upon the effective interest method, while right-of-use assets are amortized based upon the straight line expense less interest on the lease liability. Lease expense for lease payments is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term, except for impaired leases for which the lease expense is recognized on a declining basis over the remaining lease term. Variable lease expense associated with our leases is dependent upon the occurrence of events, activities, or circumstances in lease agreements, such as warehouse square footage utilized, property taxes assessed, and other non-lease component charges. Variable lease expense is presented as operating expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income and Comprehensive Income in the same line item as expense arising from fixed lease payments for operating leases.
We have operating leases for showrooms, manufacturing facilities, warehouses, certain offices, and other facilities to support our operations in addition to select equipment that expire at various dates through 2028. We have no financing leases. Certain operating lease agreements include rental payments adjusted periodically for inflationary indexes. Additionally, some leases include options to renew or terminate the leases which can be exercised at our discretion. Lease terms include the noncancellable portion of the underlying leases along with any reasonably certain lease periods associated with available renewal periods. Our leases do not contain residual value guarantees or material restrictive covenants. As the rate implicit in our lease contracts cannot be readily determined, we use an estimated incremental borrowing rate based on the information available at the lease commencement date in determining the present value of the lease payments. The estimated incremental borrowing rate represents

12



the estimated rate of interest we would have to pay to borrow an amount equal to the lease payments for a similar period of time on a collateralized basis.

Right-of-use assets for operating leases are tested for impairment in the same manner as long-lived assets used in operations. During the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, we recorded $2.2 million of right-of-use asset and associated leasehold improvement impairment resulting from ceasing use of four furniture showrooms after the implementation of ASC 842 as part of our transformation restructuring plan. The impairment is included in the Restructuring Expense line item on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income.

The payments exclude legally binding minimum lease payments for leases signed but not yet commenced. At December 31, 2019, we have an additional operating lease that has not yet commenced for which we will record a right-of-use asset and lease liability of $1.6 million. The lease will commence in our third quarter of fiscal year 2020 with a lease term of approximately 7 years.

Practical Expedients Elected
We elected the following practical expedients as a result of adopting ASC 842:
We elected not to separate non-lease components of a contract from the lease components to which they relate for all classes of lease assets.
We elected the package of practical expedients available for transition which allowed us not to reassess (1) whether any expired or existing contracts contain leases, (2) the classification of the leases as operating or finance and (3) the amount of initial direct costs associated with the leases.
We elected that our date of initial application be the beginning of our period of adoption which was July 1, 2019.
We elected not to recognize a right-of-use asset or lease liability for short-term leases that have a lease term of twelve months or less.
We elected not to assess whether land easements that were not previously accounted for as leases are or contain a lease.
We did not elect to use hindsight in determining the lease term and in assessing the likelihood that a lessee purchase option will be exercised.

In determining the quarterly provision for income taxes, we use an estimated annual effective tax rate which is based on expected annual income, statutory tax rates, and available tax planning opportunities in the various jurisdictions in which we operate. Unusual or infrequently occurring items are separately recognized in the quarter in which they occur. Our effective tax rate was 28.4% and 27.9%, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019, and was higher than statutory rates primarily due to nondeductible expenses and a prior year state tax provision adjustment that impacted the first quarter of fiscal year 2020. Our effective tax rate was 25.6% and 25.0%, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018, which approximated the combined federal and state statutory rate.

For interim reporting, LIFO inventories are computed based on quantities as of the end of the quarter and interim changes in price levels. Changes in quantities and price levels are reflected in the interim financial statements in the period in which they occur, except in cases where LIFO inventory liquidations are expected to be reinstated by fiscal year end. The earnings impact of LIFO inventory liquidations during the three and six month periods ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 was immaterial.

Note 11. Commitments and Contingent Liabilities
Guarantees:
Standby letters of credit were issued to lessors and insurance institutions and can only be drawn upon in the event of our failure to pay our obligations to a beneficiary. As of December 31, 2019, we had a maximum financial exposure from unused standby letters of credit totaling $1.5 million.
We are periodically required to provide performance bonds in order to conduct business with certain customers. The bonds are required to provide assurances to customers that the products and services they have purchased will be installed and/or provided properly and without damage to their facilities. We are ultimately liable for claims that may occur against the performance bonds. We had a maximum financial exposure from performance bonds totaling $5.4 million as of December 31, 2019.
We are not aware of circumstances that would require us to perform under these arrangements and believe that the resolution of any claims that might arise in the future, either individually or in the aggregate, would not materially affect our condensed consolidated financial statements. Accordingly, no liability has been recorded as of December 31, 2019 with respect to the standby letters of credit. We also enter into commercial letters of credit to facilitate payments to vendors and from customers.
Product Warranties:
We provide an assurance-type warranty that guarantees our product complies with agreed-upon specifications. This warranty is not sold separately and does not convey any additional services to the customer. We estimate product warranty liability at the time of sale based on historical repair or replacement cost trends in conjunction with the length of the warranty offered. Management refines the warranty liability periodically based on changes in historical cost trends and in certain cases where specific warranty issues become known.

Note 12. Fair Value
We categorize assets and liabilities measured at fair value into three levels based upon the assumptions (inputs) used to price the assets or liabilities. Level 1 provides the most reliable measure of fair value, whereas Level 3 generally requires significant management judgment. The three levels are defined as follows:
Level 1: Unadjusted quoted prices in active markets for identical assets and liabilities.
Level 2: Observable inputs other than those included in Level 1. For example, quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets or quoted prices for identical assets or liabilities in inactive markets.
Level 3: Unobservable inputs reflecting management’s own assumptions about the inputs used in pricing the asset or liability.
Our policy is to recognize transfers between these levels as of the end of each quarterly reporting period. There were no transfers between these levels during the six months ended December 31, 2019. There were also no changes in the inputs or valuation techniques used to measure fair values compared to those disclosed in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
We hold a total investment of $2.0 million in a privately-held company, consisting of $0.5 million in equity securities without readily determinable fair value and $1.5 million in stock warrants. The investment in equity securities without readily determinable fair value is classified as a Level 3 financial asset, as explained in the Financial Instruments Not Carried At Fair Value section below. The investment in stock warrants is also classified as a Level 3 financial asset and is accounted for as a derivative instrument valued on a recurring basis, as explained in the Financial Instruments Recognized at Fair Value section below. See Note 13 - Investments in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the investment in equity securities without readily determinable fair value, and Note 14 - Derivative Instruments in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the investment in stock warrants. No purchases or sales of Level 3 assets occurred during the six months ended December 31, 2019.

The fair value of the contingent earn-out liability as of June 30, 2019 of $0.4 million was paid out during the quarter ended September 30, 2019, relating to fiscal year 2019 performance of D’style, an acquired business.
The nonqualified supplemental employee retirement plan (“SERP”) assets consist primarily of equity funds, balanced funds, target date funds, a bond fund, and a money market fund. The SERP investment assets are offset by a SERP liability which represents our obligation to distribute SERP funds to participants. See Note 13 - Investments in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for further information regarding the SERP.
Non-Recurring Fair Value Measurements:
Certain assets are measured at fair value on a non-recurring basis. These assets are not measured at fair value on an ongoing basis but are subject to fair value adjustments when events or circumstances indicate a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the asset. Assets that are written down to fair value when impaired are not subsequently adjusted to fair value unless further impairment occurs.

20



Non-recurring Fair Value Adjustment
 
Level
 
Valuation Technique/Inputs Used
Impairment of Leases
 
3
 
Income - Based on a valuation model that measures the present value of remaining lease payments less estimated sublease income at a discount rate that captures the risk associated with the future cash flows.

During the first quarter of fiscal year 2020, due to ceasing use of four showrooms related to the Transformation Restructuring Plan, we recognized an impairment loss of $2.2 million to reduce the related asset groups to fair value. The impairment loss is included as a component of the Restructuring Expense line item on our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. The asset groups used to calculate impairment included the right-of-use lease assets, leasehold improvements, and lease liabilities.
Financial Instruments Not Carried At Fair Value:
Financial instruments that are not reflected in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value that have carrying amounts which approximate fair value include the following:
Financial Instrument
 
Level
 
Valuation Technique/Inputs Used
Notes receivable
 
2
 
Market - Price approximated based on the assumed collection of receivables in the normal course of business, taking into account the customer’s non-performance risk.
Equity securities without readily determinable fair value
 
3
 
Cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer. Impairment is assessed qualitatively.
On a periodic basis, but no less frequently than quarterly, the investment in equity securities without readily determinable fair value is qualitatively assessed for impairment when there are events or changes in circumstances that may have a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment. If a significant adverse effect on the fair value of the investment were to occur and was deemed to be other-than-temporary, the fair value of the investment would be estimated, and the amount by which the carrying value of the investment exceeds its fair value would be recorded as an impairment loss. See Note 13 - Investments in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for the carrying amount of this investment.
The carrying value of our cash deposit accounts, trade accounts receivable, trade accounts payable, customer deposits, and dividends payable approximates fair value due to the relatively short maturity and immaterial non-performance risk.
Note 13. Investments
Investment Portfolio:
Our investment portfolio consists of municipal bonds, certificates of deposit purchased in the secondary market, and U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities. Municipal bonds include general obligation bonds and revenue bonds, some of which are pre-refunded. U.S. Treasury securities represent Treasury Bills and Notes of the U.S. government. Federal agency securities represent debt securities of a U.S. government sponsored agency, and certain of these securities are callable. Our investment policy dictates that municipal bonds, U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities must be investment grade quality. Our secondary market certificates of deposit are classified as investment securities, being purchased in the secondary market through a broker and available to be sold in the secondary market. All certificates of deposit are FDIC insured.

21



Our investment portfolio is available for use in current operations; therefore, investments are recorded within Current Assets in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The contractual maturities of our investment portfolio were as follows (maturity dates for municipal bonds are based on pre-refunded dates and maturity dates for government agency securities are based on the first available call date, if applicable):

All investments are classified as available-for-sale securities which are recorded at fair value. See Note 12 - Fair Value in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the fair value of available-for-sale securities. The amortized cost basis reflects the original purchase price, with discounts and premiums amortized over the life of the available-for-sale securities. Unrealized losses on available-for-sale securities are recognized in earnings when there is intent to sell or it is likely to be required to sell before recovery of the loss, or when the available-for-sale securities have incurred a credit loss. Otherwise, unrealized gains and losses are recorded net of the tax-related effect as a component of Shareholders’ Equity.

No investments were in a continuous unrealized loss position for greater than twelve months as of December 31, 2019. There were no realized gains or losses as a result of sales in the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018.
Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan Investments:
We maintain a self-directed supplemental employee retirement plan (“SERP”) in which executive employees are eligible to participate. The SERP utilizes a rabbi trust, and therefore assets in the SERP portfolio are subject to creditor claims in the event of bankruptcy. We recognize SERP investment assets on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at current fair value. A SERP liability of the same amount is recorded on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets representing an obligation to distribute SERP funds to participants. The SERP investment assets are classified as trading, and accordingly, realized and unrealized gains and losses are recognized in the Other Income (Expense) section of the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Income. Adjustments made to revalue the SERP liability are also recognized in income or expense as selling and administrative expenses and offset valuation adjustments on SERP investment assets. Net unrealized holding gains (losses) for the six months ended December 31, 2019 and 2018 were, in thousands, $418 and $(1,089), respectively.

Equity securities without readily determinable fair value:
We hold a total investment of $2.0 million in a privately-held company, including $0.5 million in equity securities without readily determinable fair value. The investment in equity securities without readily determinable fair value is included in the Other Assets line of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. See Note 12 - Fair Value in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the valuation of these securities. We do not hold a majority voting interest and are not the variable interest primary beneficiary of the privately-held company, thus consolidation is not required.

Note 14. Derivative Instruments
We hold a total investment of $2.0 million in a privately-held company, including $1.5 million in stock warrants. The investment in stock warrants is accounted for as a derivative instrument and is included in the Other Assets line of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The stock warrants are convertible into equity shares of the privately-held company upon achieving certain milestones. The value of the stock warrants will fluctuate primarily in relation to the value of the privately-held company's underlying securities, either providing an appreciation in value or potentially expiring with no value. During the quarter ended December 31, 2019, the change in fair value of the stock warrants was not significant. See Note 12 - Fair Value in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the valuation of these securities.

Note 16. Stock Compensation
Stock-based compensation expense during the quarter and year-to-date period ended December 31, 2019 was $1.1 million and $3.2 million, respectively, and during the quarter and year-to-date period ended December 31, 2018, was $1.7 million and $3.6 million, respectively. The total income tax benefit for stock compensation arrangements during the quarter and year-to-date period ended December 31, 2019, was $0.3 million and $0.8 million, respectively, and during the quarter and year-to-date period ended December 31, 2018, was $0.4 million and $0.9 million, respectively.
During fiscal year 2020, the following stock compensation was awarded to officers and other key employees and to members of the Board of Directors who are not employees. All awards were granted under the 2017 Stock Incentive Plan. For more information on stock compensation awards, refer to our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.

(1) Annual performance shares were awarded to officers and other key employees. The number of annual performance shares to be issued will be dependent upon the Company’s return on invested capital during fiscal year 2020, with a percentage payout ranging from 0% to 200% of the target number set forth above. The maximum number of shares that can be issued under these awards is 68,610. Annual performance shares vest on June 30, 2020.
(2) Performance units were awarded to key officers under the Company’s Relative Total Shareholder Return program. Vesting occurs at June 30, 2022. Participants will earn from 0% to 200% of the target award depending upon how the compound annual growth rate of Kimball International common stock ranks within the peer group at the end of the performance period. The maximum number of units that can be issued under these awards is 56,160.
(3) Restricted stock units were awarded to officers and employees. Also, in connection with the redesign of the Company’s annual cash incentive plan certain employees were awarded time-based retention and performance-based transition units. The number of performance-based transition units to be issued will be dependent upon the Company’s EBITDA during fiscal year 2020, with a percentage payout ranging from 0% to 100% of the target. The maximum number of units that can be issued under the performance-based transition awards is 35,598. The Company also awarded performance-based transformation units that will earn from 0% to 100% of the target award depending upon the Company’s reduction of operating costs and EBITDA during fiscal year 2020. The maximum number of units that can be issued under the performance-based transformation award is 2,165. Vesting occurs at June 30, 2020, June 30, 2021, and June 30, 2022. Dividends accumulate over the vesting period for all awards except the time-based retention and performance-based transition awards.
(4) Unrestricted shares were awarded to non-employee members of the Board of Directors as consideration for service to Kimball International and do not have vesting periods, holding periods, restrictions on sale, or other restrictions.
(5) The grant date fair value of annual performance shares and restricted stock units that do not receive dividends was based on the stock price at the date of the award, reduced by the present value of dividends normally paid over the vesting period which are not payable on outstanding annual performance share awards or certain restricted stock unit awards. The grant date fair value of the Relative Total Shareholder Return awards was calculated using a Monte Carlo simulation. This valuation technique includes estimating the movement of stock prices and the effects of volatility, interest rates, and dividends. The grant date fair value of the restricted stock units that receive dividends and unrestricted shares was based on the stock price at the date of the award.
Note 17. Variable Interest Entities
Our involvement with variable interest entities (“VIEs”) is limited to situations in which we are not the primary beneficiary as we lack the power to direct the activities that most significantly impact the VIE’s economic performance. Thus, consolidation is not required. Our involvement with VIEs consists of an investment in a privately-held company consisting of equity securities without readily determinable fair value and stock warrants and notes receivable related to independent dealership financing.

24



The equity securities without readily determinable fair value and stock warrants were valued at $0.5 million and $1.5 million, respectively, at both December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 and were included in the Other Assets line of the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. For more information related to our investment in the privately-held company, see Note 12 - Fair Value in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The carrying value of the notes receivable for independent dealership financing were $1.0 million at both December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 and was included on the Receivables and Other Assets lines of our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
We have no obligation to provide additional funding to the VIEs, and thus our exposure and risk of loss related to the VIEs is limited to the carrying value of the investment and notes receivable. Financial support provided by Kimball International to the VIEs was limited to the items discussed above during the quarter ended December 31, 2019.
Note 18. Credit Quality and Allowance for Credit Losses of Notes Receivable
We monitor credit quality and associated risks of notes receivable on an individual basis based on criteria such as financial stability of the party and collection experience in conjunction with general economic and market conditions. As of December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, we had no material past due outstanding notes receivable.

Item 2. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
Business Overview
For over 65 years, Kimball International, Inc. (the “Company,” “Kimball International,” “we,” “us,” or “our”) has created design- driven, innovative furnishings that have helped our customers shape spaces into places that bring possibility to life by enabling collaboration, discovery, wellness, and relaxation. We go to market through our family of brands: Kimball, National, Kimball Hospitality, David Edward, and D’style by Kimball Hospitality. Our values and integrity are demonstrated daily by embracing our purpose and guiding principles while fostering a culture of caring that establishes us as an employer of choice. We build success by nurturing long-term relationships with customers, employees, suppliers, shareholders and the communities in which we operate.
We closely monitor key indicators for the markets in which we compete. As reported by the Business and Institutional Furniture Manufacturer Association (“BIFMA”), the forecast by IHS Markit, a global information provider, as of December 2019 for the U.S. office furniture market, projects a year-over-year increase of 2.2% for calendar year 2020. The forecast for two of the leading indicators for the hospitality furniture market in the January 2020 PwC Hospitality Directions U.S. report includes a projected increase in RevPAR (Revenue Per Available Room) of 0.7% for calendar year 2020, while the occupancy level for calendar year 2020 continues to hover at peak levels.

25



Management currently considers the following events, trends, and uncertainties to be most important to understanding our financial condition and operating performance:
‘Kimball International Connect’ Strategy - In May 2019, Kimball International introduced a comprehensive strategy to connect our purpose, our people, and our brands to drive growth and unlock the Company’s full potential. Kimball International Connect seeks to enable the power of our people and position our organization to engage at higher levels of collaboration and interdependence. We believe this strategy will result in enhanced shareholder value over the long term. Our Kimball International Connect Strategy is comprised of four pillars:
Inspire Our People: Leveraging our legacy of a bold and entrepreneurial spirit, we are working to cultivate a high-performance, caring culture. We unveiled our new purpose to our employees on May 9, 2019 and are investing in our training, technology and systems to remain an employer of choice and a great place to work.
Build Our Capabilities: We created center-led functions, including finance, human resources, information technology and legal and centralized supply chain leadership to reduce duplication, deliver efficiencies, and drive consistency. We are also adopting ways of working to ensure the use of common best practices and approaches. To achieve our goals, we established a Program Management Office to oversee execution.
Fuel Our Future: We are driving lean throughout the organization, removing duplication at the business level, and infusing capital to accelerate efficiencies. Related to this, we are employing a more metrics-based approach and driving toward more formal standardized operating practices.
Accelerate Our Growth: We are continuing to advance new product development across our brands, selectively expanding our verticals and channels, including healthcare and e-commerce, and driving commercial excellence. We believe by being our customers’ first choice for shaping places that bring collaboration, discovery, wellness and relaxation to life, we will capture greater market share.
Transformation Restructuring Plan - In June 2019, we announced a transformation restructuring plan that is expected to optimize resources for future growth, improve efficiency, and build capabilities across our organization. We believe the transformation restructuring plan will establish a more cost-efficient structure to better align our operations with our long-term strategic goals. The efforts are expected to generate annualized pre-tax savings of approximately $10.0 million when the transformation restructuring plan is fully implemented. We estimate pre-tax restructuring charges incurred through the end of fiscal year 2020 will be approximately $9.0 million to $10.0 million. The transformation restructuring plan includes the following:
Our overall manufacturing facility footprint is being reviewed to reduce excess capacity and gain efficiencies by centralizing manufacturing operations. We plan to exit a leased seating manufacturing facility in Martinsville, Virginia as well as a David Edward production facility in Red Lion, Pennsylvania in the second half of fiscal year 2020 and are evaluating our production capabilities and capacity across our organization to identify additional opportunities.
The creation of center-led functions for finance, human resources, information technology and legal functions is resulting in the standardization of processes and the elimination of duplication. In addition, we centralized our supply chain efforts to maximize supplier value and are driving more efficient practices and operations within our logistics function.
Kimball brand selling resources were realigned to higher-growth markets. We also ceased use of our four leased furniture showrooms across our brands during the first quarter of fiscal year 2020 and recognized impairment of the lease and associated leasehold improvements.
On October 26, 2018, we acquired substantially all of the assets and assumed certain specified limited liabilities of David Edward Furniture, Inc. (“David Edward”), which is headquartered in Baltimore, Maryland. David Edward is a premier designer and manufacturer of contract furniture, sold in the healthcare, corporate, education, and premium hospitality markets. David Edward products are sold primarily in the North American market. David Edward’s products are generally specified by architects and designers, represented through a network of independent representatives, and sold through authorized furniture dealerships. The David Edward product portfolio consists of classic and contemporary designs, focused primarily in the seating, tables, and ancillary furniture categories. In conjunction with the asset acquisition, we leased two existing David Edward production facilities in Baltimore, Maryland and Red Lion, Pennsylvania. As part of our transformation restructuring plan we will be consolidating the David Edward Red Lion, Pennsylvania production facility into the Baltimore, Maryland facility. Our focus is on investing in new equipment and a redesigned layout in Baltimore that will

26



allow us to substantially increase capacity, reduce lead times and deliver on the high design, high quality products, expand our Kimball Health Portfolio, and accelerate our expansion of Kimball Hospitality Seating. See Note 4 - Acquisition in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
We expect commodity prices to moderate, but we will continue to be exposed to fluctuations in transportation costs, which vary based upon freight carrier capacity and fuel prices. We utilize both steel and aluminum in our products, most of which is sourced domestically. The U.S. originally imposed tariffs of 25% on steel and 10% on aluminum imported from several countries effective June 2018. The government expanded its list of products subject to tariffs to include furniture products, parts, and components at a 10% rate effective September 2018, increasing to a 25% rate effective June 2019. We are actively striving to offset increases in the cost of these materials through supplier negotiations, global sourcing initiatives, product re-engineering and parts standardization, and price increases on our products.
Due to the contract and project nature of furniture markets, fluctuation in the demand for our products and variation in the gross margin on those projects is inherent to our business, which in turn impacts our operating results. Effective management of our manufacturing capacity is and will continue to be critical to our success. See below for further details regarding current sales and open order trends.
We expect to continue to invest in capital expenditures prudently, including potential acquisitions, that would enhance our capabilities and diversification while providing an opportunity for growth and improved profitability.
We have a strong focus on cost control and closely monitor market changes and our liquidity in order to proactively adjust our operating costs, discretionary capital spending, and dividend levels as needed. Managing working capital in conjunction with fluctuating demand levels is likewise key.
We continue to maintain a strong balance sheet. Our short-term liquidity available, represented as cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments plus the unused amount of our credit facility, was $170.6 million at December 31, 2019.

Second quarter fiscal year 2020 consolidated net sales were $192.2 million compared to second quarter fiscal year 2019 net sales of $201.0 million, or a 4% decrease, as lower volume in our commercial, hospitality, and finance vertical markets more than offset price increases. Net sales for the six-month period ended December 31, 2019 of $393.6 million were approximately flat with net sales of $395.1 million for the six-month period ended December 31, 2018. Organic net sales decreased $5.5 million, or

28



1% primarily due to volume declines in our commercial and finance vertical markets which were partially offset by price increases and higher volume in our government, healthcare, and education vertical markets.
Key explanatory comments for our sales by vertical market for the second quarter and year-to-date period of fiscal year 2020 compared to the second quarter and year-to-date period of fiscal year 2019 follow:
While our healthcare vertical market sales were flat in the second quarter, our year-to-date sales increase was driven by our strategic focus in this marketplace which included aligning resources, building relationships, and introducing new healthcare products. The healthcare market continues to show stability and growth.
When compared to the strong prior year sales levels, the hospitality vertical market experienced decreased sales of both custom and non-custom products as hospitality projects were temporarily delayed in response to tariff announcements.
Government vertical market sales increased on higher state and local government sales as these entities continue to have discretionary spend dollars available for furniture purchases.
Our increased sales to the education vertical market were driven by multiple larger university projects.
Our sales to the finance vertical market decreased compared to strong prior year sales levels.
Our sales decline in the commercial vertical market resulted from an intense continuous improvement approach to improve margins within the systems category that caused a temporary distraction to our revenue growth in this vertical market.
Each of our vertical market sales levels can fluctuate depending on the mix of projects in a given period.
Open orders at December 31, 2019 increased 20%, when compared to the open order level as of December 31, 2018 with increases in each of our vertical markets. Open orders at a point in time may not be indicative of future sales trends.
Gross profit as a percent of net sales increased 170 basis points and 140 basis points in the second quarter and year-to-date periods of fiscal year 2020 compared to the second quarter and year-to-date periods of fiscal year 2019. Both the second quarter and year-to-date periods were impacted by increased product pricing and the savings realized from our transformation plan which were partially offset by the loss of leverage on lower sales volumes and higher employee healthcare expenses.
Selling and administrative expenses in the second quarter of fiscal year 2020 compared to the second quarter of fiscal year 2019 decreased 3% in absolute dollars, and as a percent of net sales increased 30 basis points. The decrease in selling and administrative expenses was driven by the savings benefit related to the transformation plan and lower sales commissions which were partially offset by Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan expense and higher employee healthcare expenses. For the six months ended December 31, 2019 compared to the same period of the prior year, selling and administrative expenses decreased 3% in absolute dollars and as a percent of net sales decreased 70 basis points. The reduction in selling and administrative expenses was driven by the savings benefit related to the transformation plan and lower CEO transition costs which were partially offset by Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan expense, higher employee healthcare expenses, and a prior year gain on the sale of assets which did not repeat in the current year.
The increased SERP expense in the second quarter and year-to-date period ended December 31, 2019 resulted from the normal revaluation to fair value of our SERP liability. The impact from the change in the SERP liability that was recognized in selling and administrative expenses was offset with the change in fair value of the SERP investments which was recorded in Other Income (Expense), and thus there was no effect on net income.
Also included in our second quarter and year-to-date fiscal year 2020 selling and administrative expenses are growth investments which are expected to increase throughout fiscal year 2020 and partially offset the savings we expect to achieve from the transformation plan in future quarters.
In June 2019, we announced a transformation restructuring plan that is expected to optimize resources for future growth, improve efficiency, and build capabilities across our organization. We believe the transformation restructuring plan will establish a more cost-efficient structure to better align our operations with our long-term strategic goals. We recognized pre-tax restructuring expense of $1.4 million and $5.7 million in the second quarter and year-to-date period of fiscal year 2020, respectively, related to our transformation restructuring plan. See Note 3 - Restructuring in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.

Our effective tax rate was 28.4% and 27.9%, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2019 and was higher than the combined federal and state statutory tax rate due to nondeductible expenses and a prior year state tax provision adjustment that impacted our first quarter of fiscal year 2020. Our effective tax rate was 25.6% and 25.0%, respectively, for the three and six months ended December 31, 2018 which approximated our statutory rate.
Comparing the balance sheet as of December 31, 2019 to June 30, 2019, customer deposits balance increased as we received deposits for several large projects and our accounts payable balance declined as we processed payments on the last day of December. Our accrued expenses line decreased as our company retirement contribution and accrued cash incentive compensation related to our fiscal year 2019 performance were paid out. The right-of-use lease assets and current and long-term lease liabilities lines are the result of implementing ASC 842 as of the beginning of our fiscal year 2020. See Note 6 - Leases in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Our total cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments, was $97.1 million at December 31, 2019 and $106.3 million at June 30, 2019. Cash flows from operations of $13.4 million were more than offset by capital expenditures, including capitalized software, of $13.5 million and the return of capital to shareholders in the form of dividends totaling $6.3 million and stock repurchases of $1.3 million during the first six months of fiscal year 2020.
Working capital at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019 was $107.1 million and $96.5 million, respectively. The current ratio was 1.9 and 1.7 at December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, respectively.
Our short-term liquidity available, represented as cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments plus the unused amount of our credit facility, totaled $170.6 million at December 31, 2019. At December 31, 2019, we had $1.5 million in letters of credit outstanding, which reduced our borrowing capacity on the credit facility. We had no credit facility borrowings outstanding as of December 31, 2019 or June 30, 2019.

Cash Flows from Operating Activities
For the first six months of fiscal year 2020 net cash provided by operating activities was $13.4 million fueled by $22.4 million of net income while the first six months of fiscal year 2019 net cash provided by operating activities was $23.9 million inclusive of $20.3 million of net income. Changes in working capital balances used $24.4 million of cash in the first six months of fiscal year 2020 and used $4.1 million of cash in the first six months of fiscal year 2019.
The $24.4 million usage of cash from changes in working capital balances in the first six months of fiscal year 2020 was primarily due to a reduction in our accrued expenses balance as the retirement profit sharing contribution and cash incentive compensation

30



which were both related to our fiscal year 2019 performance were paid out during the first half of fiscal year 2020. In addition, increased customer deposits we received for several large projects were offset by a decline in accounts payable as we processed payments on the last day of December.
Changes in working capital balances used $4.1 million of cash in the first six months of fiscal year 2019 and included a reduction in our accrued expenses balance as our total accrued cash incentive compensation and the retirement profit sharing contribution which were both related to our fiscal year 2018 performance were paid out. In addition, increased inventory levels driven by higher inventory in transit was partially offset by an increase in customer deposits.
Our measure of accounts receivable performance, also referred to as Days Sales Outstanding (“DSO”), for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were 29 and 28 days, respectively. We define DSO as the average of monthly accounts and notes receivable divided by an average day’s net sales. Our Production Days Supply on Hand (“PDSOH”) of inventory measure for the six-month periods ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018 were 45 and 42 days, respectively. The inventory increase was primarily driven by an intentional increase of outsourced high demand products. We define PDSOH as the average of the monthly net inventory divided by an average day’s cost of sales.
Cash Flows from Investing Activities
During the first six months of fiscal year 2020, we invested $14.0 million in available-for-sale securities, and $21.5 million matured. During the first six months of fiscal year 2019, we invested $26.2 million in available-for-sale securities, and $18.6 million matured. Our short-term investments included municipal bonds, certificates of deposit purchased in the secondary market, and U.S. Treasury and federal agency securities. During the first six months of fiscal years 2020 and 2019, we reinvested $13.5 million and $10.7 million, respectively, into capital investments for the future. The capital investments in both the current and prior year were primarily for facility improvements such as renovations to our corporate headquarters, and various manufacturing equipment upgrades to increase automation in production facilities which is expected to yield future benefits. During the first six months of fiscal year 2019 we had a cash outflow of $4.9 million for the David Edward acquisition and we received proceeds from the sale of assets net of selling expenses of $1.3 million of which the majority relates to the sale of Internet protocol addresses.
Cash Flows from Financing Activities
We paid dividends of $6.3 million and $5.6 million in the six-month periods ended December 31, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively. Consistent with our historical dividend policy, our Board of Directors evaluates the appropriate dividend payment on a quarterly basis. During the first six months of fiscal years 2020 and 2019, we repurchased shares pursuant to a previously announced stock repurchase program which drove cash outflow of $1.3 million and $9.1 million, respectively.
Credit Facility
We maintain a $75 million credit facility with a maturity date of October 2024 that allows for both issuances of letters of credit and cash borrowings. We also have an option to request an increase of the amount available for borrowing to $150 million, subject to participating banks’ consent. The revolving loans under the Credit Agreement may consist of, at our election, advances in U.S. dollars or advances in any other currency that is agreed to by the lenders. The proceeds of the revolving loans are to be used for general corporate purposes including acquisitions. A portion of the credit facility, not to exceed $10 million of the principal amount, will be available for the issuance of letters of credit. At December 31, 2019, we had $1.5 million in letters of credit outstanding, which reduced our borrowing capacity on the credit facility. At both December 31, 2019 and June 30, 2019, we had no borrowings outstanding.
The credit facility requires us to comply with certain debt covenants, the most significant of which are the adjusted leverage ratio and the fixed charge coverage ratio. The adjusted leverage ratio is defined as (a) consolidated total indebtedness minus unencumbered U.S. cash equivalents on hand in excess of $15,000,000 provided that the maximum subtraction shall not exceed $35,000,000 to (b) adjusted consolidated EBITDA, determined as of the end of each of our fiscal quarters for the then most recently ended four fiscal quarters, and may not be greater than 3.0 to 1.0. The fixed charge coverage ratio is defined as (a) the sum of (i) consolidated EBITDA, minus (ii) 50% of depreciation expense, minus (iii) taxes paid, minus (iv) dividends and distributions paid, minus if the Adjusted Leverage Ratio is greater than 1.00 to 1.00 for the then most recently ended four fiscal quarter period, repurchase of Equity Interests to (b) the sum of (i) scheduled principal payments on indebtedness due and/or paid, plus (ii) interest expense, calculated on a consolidated basis in accordance with U.S. GAAP, determined as of the end of each of our fiscal quarters for the trailing four fiscal quarters then ending, and may not be less than 1.10 to 1.00. We were in compliance with all debt covenants of the credit facility during the six-month period ended December 31, 2019.

Future Liquidity
We believe our principal sources of liquidity from available funds on hand and short-term investments, cash generated from operations, and the availability of borrowing under our credit facility will be sufficient to fund future dividends and meet our working capital and other operating needs for at least the next 12 months. During the second quarter of fiscal year 2020, our Board of Directors declared a quarterly dividend of $0.09 per share, to be paid during our third quarter of fiscal year 2020. We will continue to evaluate market conditions in determining future share repurchases. At December 31, 2019, 2.6 million shares remained available under the repurchase program. During the remainder of fiscal year 2020 we expect to continue investments in capital expenditures, particularly for projects such as showroom renovations, machinery and equipment upgrades and automation, and potential acquisitions, that would enhance our capabilities and diversification while providing an opportunity for growth and improved profitability.
Our ability to generate cash from operations to meet our liquidity obligations could be adversely affected in the future by factors such as general economic and market conditions, the impact of changes in tariffs, lack of availability of raw material components in the supply chain, loss of key contract customers, and other unforeseen circumstances. In particular, should demand for our products decrease significantly over the next 12 months, the available cash provided by operations could be adversely impacted.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures and Other Key Performance Indicators
This Management’s Discussion and Analysis (“MD&A”) contains non-GAAP financial measures. A non-GAAP financial measure is a numerical measure of a company’s financial performance that excludes or includes amounts so as to be different than the most directly comparable measure calculated and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP in the statements of income, statements of comprehensive income, balance sheets, statements of cash flows, or statements of shareholders’ equity of the company. The non-GAAP financial measures used within this MD&A include (1) organic net sales, defined as net sales excluding the acquisition-related net sales during the periods for which there were no sales related to such acquisition in the comparable period; (2) adjusted operating income, defined as operating income excluding restructuring expenses, CEO transition costs, and market value adjustments related to our Supplemental Employee Retirement Plan (“SERP”) liability; (3) adjusted operating income percentage, defined as adjusted operating income as a percentage of net sales; (4) adjusted net income, defined as net income excluding restructuring expenses and CEO transition costs; (5) adjusted diluted earnings per share, defined as diluted earnings per share excluding restructuring expenses and CEO transition costs; (6) adjusted EBITDA, defined as earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization and excluding restructuring expenses and CEO transition costs; and (7) adjusted EBITDA percentage, defined as adjusted EBITDA as a percentage of net sales. Reconciliations of the reported GAAP numbers to these non-GAAP financial measures are included in the table below. Management believes it is useful for investors to understand and to be able to meaningfully trend, analyze and benchmark how our core operations performed without market value adjustments related to our SERP liability or expenses incurred in executing our transformation restructuring plan or our CEO transition. Many of our internal performance measures that management uses to make certain operating decisions exclude these expenses to enable meaningful trending of core operating metrics. These non-GAAP financial measures should not be viewed as an alternative to the GAAP measures and are presented as supplemental information.

The open orders metric is a key performance indicator representing firm orders placed by our customers which have not yet been fulfilled and are expected to be recognized as revenue during future quarters. The timing of shipments can vary, but generally open orders are expected to ship within a twelve-month period.
Return on Invested Capital is a key performance indicator calculated as: [(Earnings Before Interest, Taxes, Amortization, Restructuring Expense, and CEO Transition Costs) multiplied by (1 minus Effective Tax Rate)] divided by (Total Shareholders’ Equity plus Net Debt). Net Debt is defined as current maturities of long-term debt plus long-term debt less cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments.
Fair Value
Financial assets classified as level 1 assets were valued using readily available market pricing. For commercial paper and available-for-sale securities classified as level 2 assets, the fair values are determined based on market data which use evaluated pricing models and incorporate available trade, bid, and other market information. We evaluated the inputs used to value the instruments and validated the accuracy of the instrument fair values based on historical evidence. The investment in stock warrants and equity securities without readily determinable fair value of a privately-held company are classified as level 3 financial assets. The stock warrants are accounted for as a derivative instrument valued on a recurring basis considering the pricing of recent purchases or sales of the investment as well as positive and negative qualitative evidence, while the equity securities without readily determinable fair value are measured at cost minus impairment, if any, plus or minus changes resulting from observable price changes in orderly transactions for the identical or a similar investment of the same issuer.
See Note 12 - Fair Value in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information.
Contractual Obligations
There have been no material changes outside the ordinary course of business to our summary of contractual obligations under the caption, “Contractual Obligations” in Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.

35



Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements
Our off-balance sheet arrangements are limited to standby letters of credit and performance bonds. These arrangements do not have a material current effect and are not reasonably likely to have a material future effect on our financial condition, results of operations, liquidity, capital expenditures, or capital resources. See Note 11 - Commitments and Contingent Liabilities in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for more information on the standby letters of credit. We do not have material exposures to trading activities of non-exchange traded contracts.
The preceding statements are forward-looking statements under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Certain factors could cause actual results to differ materially from forward-looking statements.
Critical Accounting Policies
Our condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. GAAP. These principles require the use of estimates and assumptions that affect amounts reported and disclosed in the condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes. Actual results could differ from these estimates and assumptions. Management continually reviews the accounting policies and financial information disclosures. A summary of the more significant accounting policies that require the use of estimates and judgments in preparing the financial statements is provided in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019. During the first six months of fiscal year 2020, there were no material changes in the accounting policies and assumptions previously disclosed.
New Accounting Standards
See Note 2 - Recent Accounting Pronouncements and Supplemental Information in the Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements for information regarding New Accounting Standards.
Forward-Looking Statements
Certain statements contained within this document are considered forward-looking under the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. The statements may be identified by the use of words such as “believes,” “anticipates,” “expects,” “intends,” “plans,” “projects,” “estimates,” “forecasts,” “seeks,” “likely,” “future,” “may,” “might,” “should,” “would,” “will,” and similar expressions. These forward-looking statements are subject to risks and uncertainties including, but not limited to, the impact of changes in tariffs, successful execution of our transformation restructuring plan, adverse changes in global economic conditions, global health concerns, the impact of changes in the regulatory environment, the loss of key suppliers, the loss of or significant volume reductions from key contract customers, the financial stability of key customers and suppliers, the availability or cost of raw materials, components, or services, or similar unforeseen events. Additional cautionary statements regarding other risk factors that could have an effect on the future performance of Kimball International are contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
We are exposed to market risk with respect to commodity price fluctuations for components used in the manufacture of our products, primarily related to wood and wood-related components, steel, aluminum, and plastics. These components are impacted by global pricing pressures and general economic conditions. The U.S. originally imposed tariffs of 25% on steel and 10% on aluminum imported from several countries effective June 2018. The government expanded its list of products subject to tariffs to include furniture products, parts, and components at a 10% rate effective September 2018, increasing to a 25% rate effective June 2019. We are actively striving to offset increases in the cost of these materials through supplier negotiations, global sourcing initiatives, product re-engineering and parts standardization, and price increases on our products. We are also exposed to fluctuation in transportation costs which vary based upon freight carrier capacity and fuel prices. Transportation costs are managed by optimizing logistics and supply chain planning and increasing prices on our products.
There have been no material changes to other market risks, including interest rate and foreign exchange rate risks, from the information disclosed in Item 7A “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” of our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2019.

36



Item 4. Controls and Procedures
(a)Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.
We maintain controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934 is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the rules and forms of the Securities and Exchange Commission and that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure. Based upon their evaluation of those controls and procedures performed as of December 31, 2019, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.
(b)Changes in internal control over financial reporting.
There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that occurred during the quarter ended December 31, 2019 that have materially affected, or that are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
