Notes to Unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements

March 31, 2020

NOTE 1 — Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements include the accounts of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp. and its subsidiaries (collectively, “we,” “our” or the “Company”). All intercompany accounts and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles in the United States (“U.S. GAAP”) for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary for a fair presentation have been included. Operating results for the three-month period ended March 31, 2020 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2020. The balance sheet at December 31, 2019 has been derived from the audited financial statements at that date but does not include all of the information and footnotes required by generally accepted accounting principles for complete financial statements. For further information, refer to the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019.

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reporting period. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

NOTE 2 — New Accounting Pronouncements

Accounting Pronouncements Adopted

In June 2016, the FASB issued ASU 2016-13, “Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit

Losses of Financial Instruments,” which replaced the current incurred loss impairment model with a methodology that reflected

expected credit losses. Under the new methodology, entities will measure expected credit losses on financial

instruments held at amortized cost, including trade receivables, based on historical experience, current conditions and

reasonable forecasts. The Company adopted this standard as of January 1, 2020. The adoption of the standard had an immaterial impact on the Company. For the three-month period ended March 31, 2020, the provision and write-offs were not material, and the allowance approximated $4.7 million as of March 31, 2020.

Recent Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted

In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting,” which was issued in response to concerns about structural risks of interbank offered rates, and, particularly, the risk of cessation of the London Interbank Offered Rate. Adoption of this guidance is required for interim and annual periods beginning after December 31, 2022. The Company is currently evaluating the expected impact of this standard.

No other recently issued ASUs are expected to have a material impact on our results of operations, financial condition or liquidity.

NOTE 3 - Revenue

We disaggregate our revenue by product line and geographic region of our customer, as we believe these best depict how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of our revenues and cash flows are affected by economic factors. See details in the tables below.

NOTE 4 — Segments

Our operating segments are defined as components of the enterprise for which separate financial information is available and evaluated on a regular basis by our chief operating decision maker to allocate resources and assess performance.

For purposes of measuring business segment performance, the Company utilizes segment operating income, which is defined as revenues less expenses identifiable to the product lines within each segment. The Company does not allocate items that are non-operating; unusual in nature; or are corporate costs, which include but are not limited to executive and share-based compensation and corporate office costs. Segment operating income reconciles to consolidated income before income taxes by deducting corporate costs; certain non-cash and/or non-operating items; Other components of pension income and other postretirement benefits expense, net; and interest expense, net.

Results by business segment were as follows:



	Three Months Ended March 31,

NOTE 5 — Acquisition

On May 31, 2019, the Company acquired EFCO, Inc. d/b/a Erie Press Systems (“EP”) for $9.1 million, including potential contingent consideration. The purchase price allocation for EP was finalized as of December 31, 2019. The purchase agreement stipulates potential contingent consideration of up to an additional $1.0 million based on two-year cumulative earnings before interest and taxes. The estimated fair value of the contingent consideration, valued using level 3 inputs, was approximately $1.0 million as of March 31, 2020.

NOTE 7 — Accrued Warranty Costs

The Company estimates warranty claims that may be incurred based on current and historical data of products sold. Actual warranty expense could differ from the estimates made by the Company based on product performance. The following table presents changes in the Company’s product warranty liability for the three months ended March 31, 2020 and 2019:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020			2019
	(In millions)
Beginning balance	$	6.4		$	6.2
Claims paid	(0.2		)	(0.8		)
Warranty expense	0.6			1.3
Ending balance	$	6.8		$	6.7

NOTE 8 — Income Taxes

The Company’s tax provision for interim periods is determined using an estimate of its annual effective rate, adjusted for discrete items, if any, in each period.

Income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2020 was $5.5 million, representing an effective rate of 80.9%, compared to income tax expense of $3.9 million, or 25.0%, for the three months ended March 31, 2019. The increase in the rate in the first quarter of 2020 was driven by an earnings mix that yields an increase in the Global Intangible Low Taxed Income (“GILTI”) inclusion, and also reduces the benefit of foreign tax credits and the Foreign Derived Intangible Income (“FDII”) deduction.

On March 27, 2020, the President of the United States signed the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security (“CARES”) Act, a substantial tax-and-spending package intended to provide additional economic stimulus to address the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic. Significant impacts of the CARES Act include the ability to carry back an NOL for 5 years and an increase of the Internal Revenue Code Section 163(j) interest expense disallowance limitations from 30% to 50% of adjusted taxable income, which will allow the Company to deduct additional interest expense for the 2019 and 2020 tax years. The Company is assessing the potential impact of global relief packages and the CARES Act, including the effect upon the Company’s 2019 income tax return to be filed later in 2020, as well as the 2020 tax provision. Management continues to evaluate the impact of the CARES Act.

NOTE 10 — Leases

We lease manufacturing facilities, warehouse space, office space, machinery and equipment, information technology equipment and vehicles under operating leases. We also lease one building and machinery and equipment under finance leases. For operating leases with terms greater than 12 months, we record the operating right-of-use asset and related lease liability at the present value of lease payments over the lease term. In certain real estate leases, we have options to renew lease terms, generally at our sole discretion. We evaluate renewal options at the lease commencement date to determine if we are reasonably certain to exercise the option on the basis of economic factors.

The discount rate implicit in our operating leases is generally not determinable, and therefore the Company determines the discount rate for each lease based on its incremental borrowing rate. The incremental borrowing rate is calculated based on lease term, currency and collateral adjustments.

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, the Company obtained right-of-use assets in exchange for new operating lease liabilities of $1.5 million.

As of March 31, 2020, there was $7.3 million of unrecognized compensation cost related to non-vested stock-based compensation, which cost is expected to be recognized over a weighted-average period of 2.2 years.

NOTE 12 — Commitments and Contingencies

The Company is subject to various pending and threatened legal proceedings arising in the ordinary course of business. The Company records a liability for loss contingencies in the consolidated financial statements when a loss is known or considered probable and the amount can be reasonably estimated. Our provisions are based on historical experience, current information and legal advice, and they may be adjusted in the future based on new developments. Estimating probable losses requires the analysis of multiple forecasted factors that often depend on judgments and potential actions by third parties. Although it is not possible to predict with certainty the ultimate outcome or cost of these matters, the Company believes they will not have a material adverse effect on our consolidated financial statements.

Our subsidiaries are involved in a number of contractual and warranty-related disputes. We believe that appropriate liabilities for these contingencies have been recorded; however, actual results may differ materially from our estimates.

In addition to the routine lawsuits and asserted claims noted above, we are also a co-defendant in approximately 119 cases asserting claims on behalf of approximately 222 plaintiffs alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. In every asbestos case in which we are named as a party, the complaints are filed against multiple named defendants. Historically, we have been dismissed from asbestos cases. We intend to vigorously defend these cases and believe we will continue to be successful in being dismissed from such cases.

While it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings due to the unpredictable nature of personal injury litigation, and although our results of operations and cash flows for a particular period

could be adversely affected by asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings, management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

COVID-19 Pandemic

In March 2020, the World Health Organization categorized the novel coronavirus (“COVID-19”) as a pandemic, and it continues to spread throughout the United States and other countries across the world. To limit the spread of COVID-19, governments have taken various actions, including the issuance of stay-at-home orders and social distancing guidelines, causing some businesses to suspend operations and a reduction in demand for many products from direct or ultimate customers. Accordingly, businesses have adjusted, reduced or suspended operating activities. This has negatively impacted several of the markets we serve, including the North American automotive market, which shut down production in mid-March 2020. While a number of our plants are operating as essential businesses, some of our plants have suspended or cut back on operating levels and shifts, and additional suspensions and cutbacks may occur as the impacts from COVID-19 and related responses continue to develop.

Table of Contents

As a result of curtailed operations, we have taken actions in many of our operations to reduce the work force mostly through furloughs, although reductions in some positions are expected to be permanent. We will continue to review if and when additional such actions may be appropriate throughout the Company. The hope is to begin calling back furloughed workers when and if businesses begin to return to previously-expected demand levels. We also temporarily suspended our quarterly cash dividend to further enhance our liquidity.

While we expect the effects of the pandemic and the related responses to negatively impact our results of operations, cash flows and financial position, the uncertainty over the duration and severity of the economic and operational impacts of COVID-19 means we cannot reasonably estimate the related financial impact at this time.

Although there is significant uncertainty related to the anticipated impact of the recent COVID-19 outbreak on our future results, we believe our diversified portfolio of global businesses, our liquidity position of $237 million as of March 31, 2020, and the recent steps we have taken to reduce costs, leave us well-positioned to manage our business through this crisis as it continues to unfold.

Table of Contents

Net Sales

Net sales decreased 12.8%, to $366.3 million in the first three months of 2020 compared to $420.1 million in the same period in 2019. This decrease was primarily due to lower demand from several end markets primarily driven by the COVID-19 pandemic. Several customer plant closures and changes in production schedules affected our businesses, primarily in our Assembly Components and Supply Technologies segments.

The factors explaining the changes in segment net sales for the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the corresponding 2019 period are contained in the “Segment Results” section below.

Cost of Sales & Gross Profit

Cost of sales decreased 12.0% to $312.4 million in the first three months of 2020, compared to $354.8 million in the same period in 2019. The decrease in cost of sales was primarily due to the decrease in net sales described above.

Gross margin was 14.7% in the first three months of 2020 compared to 15.5% in the corresponding period in 2019. The decrease in cost of sales and decrease in gross margin was due primarily to lower profit flow-through from the lower sales volumes and unfavorable product mix. These decreases were partially offset by the benefits of cost-reduction actions that the company implemented in response to current market conditions. The first quarter of 2019 includes $1.4 million of plant closure and consolidation costs.

SG&A Expenses

SG&A expenses were $40.9 million, or 11.2% of net sales, in the first three months of 2020, compared to $42.8 million, or 10.2% of net sales, in the same period in 2019. The decrease in SG&A expense dollars was due primarily to lower Corporate expenses and the benefit of cost-reduction actions implemented across the company in response to lower sales levels, partially offset by the SG&A expenses of Erie Press, which we acquired in May 2019.

SG&A expenses as a percentage of net sales increased in the first quarter of 2020 due primarily to fixed SG&A expenses over the lower revenue base in the current quarter compared to a year ago.

Other Components of Pension Income and Other Postretirement Benefits Expense (“OPEB”), Net

Other components of pension income and OPEB expense, net was $1.8 million in the first three months of 2020 compared to $1.3 million in the corresponding period in 2019. This increase was driven by higher returns on plan assets in 2019, which will be amortized over future periods starting in 2020.

Interest Expense, net

Interest expense, net was $8.0 million in the first three months of 2020 compared to $8.2 million in 2019. The decrease was due to lower interest rates on outstanding borrowings during the 2020 period.

Income Tax Expense

SEGMENT RESULTS

Table of Contents

For purposes of business segment performance measurement, the Company utilizes segment operating income, which is defined as revenues less expenses identifiable to the product lines within each segment. The Company does not allocate items that are non-operating or unusual in nature or are corporate costs, which include but are not limited to executive and share-based compensation and corporate office costs.

Supply Technologies Segment



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020			2019
	(Dollars in millions)
Net sales	$	140.8		$	165.3
Segment operating income	$	9.2		$	13.1
Segment operating income margin	6.5		%	7.9		%

Net sales decreased 14.8% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the 2019 period due primarily to lower customer demand in certain end markets, including the Company’s automotive market, primarily affecting our fastener manufacturing business; the Company's truck and truck-related market, which was down 32% year-over-year; the Company’s consumer products market, which was down 22% year-over-year; and the Company's aerospace and defense market, which was down 30% year-over-year. These decreases were partially offset by higher customer demand in the Company’s semiconductor market, which was up 47% year-over-year. Sales were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in certain end markets, primarily automotive, during the first quarter.

Segment operating income decreased by $3.9 million and segment operating income margin was down 140 basis points in the 2020 period compared to the same period a year ago. These net decreases were driven by lower profit flow-through from lower sales levels and unfavorable sales mix, offset by the benefits of cost-reduction actions implemented in response to current market conditions.

Assembly Components Segment



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020			2019
	(Dollars in millions)
Net sales	$	128.2		$	138.3
Segment operating income	$	6.3		$	8.3
Segment operating income margin	4.9		%	6.0		%

Net sales decreased 7.3% in the three months ended March 31, 2020 compared to the 2019 period due primarily to customer plant closures and reduced vehicle production, which began late in the first quarter in response to the COVID-19 pandemic.

Segment operating income in the 2019 period decreased by $2.0 million, and segment operating income margin decreased by 110 basis points, compared to the corresponding 2019 period. These decreases were due primarily to the unfavorable impact of the lower sales described above, which were partially offset by the benefits of cost-reduction actions that the company is implemented in response to current market conditions caused by the pandemic. During the first quarter of 2019, this segment incurred $1.4 million of plant closure and consolidation costs.

Engineered Products Segment



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020			2019
	(Dollars in millions)
Net sales	$	97.3		$	116.5
Segment operating income	$	3.8		$	8.1
Segment operating income margin	3.9		%	7.0		%

Net sales were 16.5% lower in the 2020 period compared to the 2019 period. The decrease was due to lower customer demand for new capital equipment and lower demand in certain key end markets in our forged and machined products business, including oil and gas and aerospace and defense. These decreases were partially offset by the sales from our Erie Press acquisition in May 2019.

Segment operating income in the 2020 period decreased by $4.3 million and segment operating income margin decreased by 310 basis points compared to the corresponding 2019 period. These decreases were driven by the lower sales levels, unfavorable sales mix, the negative impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic on certain product lines, and manufacturing inefficiencies at certain plants. The decreases were partially offset by the benefits of cost-reduction actions that the company has implemented in response to current market conditions.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

The following table summarizes the major components of cash flow:



	Three Months Ended March 31,
	2020			2019			$ Change
Net cash (used) provided by:	(In millions)
Operating activities	$	(3.9	)	$	6.6		$	(10.5	)

Effect of exchange rate changes on cash	(2.0		)	0.1			(2.1		)
Increase (decrease) in cash and cash equivalents	$	0.8		$	(8.2	)	$	9.0

Operating Activities

The use of net cash for operating activities in the 2020 period, compared to cash provided by operating activities in the corresponding period in 2019, was driven by our lower profitability in the current year.

Investing Activities

Capital expenditures were $4.9 million in the three months ended March 31, 2020 and were primarily to provide increased capacity for future growth in our Assembly Components segment and to maintain existing operations. In the first quarter of 2019, we had $10.6 million of capital expenditures. In the first quarter of 2020, we had proceeds of $1.4 million from the sale of an asset.

Financing Activities

During the three months ended March 31, 2020, we had net borrowing on our revolving credit and other facilities of $14.0 million to fund our net use of cash for operating activities in the period, our capital expenditures and our common share repurchases. In the comparable period of 2019, we had net debt repayments of $1.4 million. In both the 2020 and 2019 periods, we paid cash dividends to shareholders of $1.6 million.

Table of Contents

We do not have off-balance sheet arrangements, financing or other relationships with unconsolidated entities or other persons, other than the letters of credits disclosed in Note 9 to the condensed consolidated financial statements, included elsewhere herein.

Liquidity

Our liquidity needs are primarily for working capital, capital expenditures, dividends and acquisitions. Our primary sources of liquidity have been funds provided by operations, funds available from existing bank credit arrangements and the sale of our debt securities. Our existing financial resources (working capital and available bank borrowing arrangements) and anticipated cash flow from operations are expected to be adequate to meet anticipated cash requirements for at least the next twelve months, including but not limited to our ability to maintain current operations and fund capital expenditure requirements, service our debt, pay dividends, pursue acquisitions, and repurchase common shares.

As of March 31, 2020, we had total liquidity of $236.8 million, which included $180.0 million of unused borrowing availability and cash and cash equivalents of $56.8 million. We also temporarily suspended our quarterly cash dividend to further enhance our liquidity.

The Company had cash and cash equivalents held by foreign subsidiaries of $40.6 million at March 31, 2020 and $45.4 million at December 31, 2019. We do not expect restrictions on repatriation of cash held outside the U.S. to have a material effect on our overall liquidity, financial condition or results of operations for the foreseeable future.

The Company has two components to its assertion regarding reinvestment of foreign earnings outside of the United States. For all foreign subsidiaries except RB&W Corporation of Canada (“RB&W”), all earnings are permanently reinvested outside of the United States. For RB&W, dividend distributions may be made, but only to the extent of current earnings in excess of cash required to fund its business operations; all accumulated earnings are permanently reinvested.

Senior Notes

In April 2017, Park-Ohio Industries, Inc. (“Park-Ohio”), the operating subsidiary of Park-Ohio Holdings Corp., completed the sale, in a private placement, of $350.0 million aggregate principal amount of 6.625% Senior Notes due 2027 (the “Notes”). The net proceeds from the issuance of the Notes were used to repay in full our previously outstanding 8.125% Senior Notes due 2021 and our outstanding term loan, and to repay a portion of the borrowings then outstanding under our revolving credit facility.

Credit Agreement

In June 2018, Park-Ohio entered into Amendment No. 1 to its Seventh Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Credit Agreement”). The amendment to the Credit Agreement, among other things, provided increases in the availability under the revolving credit facility from $350.0 million to $375.0 million, the Canadian revolving subcommitment from $35.0 million to $40.0 million and the European revolving subcommitment from $25.0 million to $30.0 million. Furthermore, the Company has the option, pursuant to the Credit Agreement, to increase the availability under the revolving credit facility by an aggregate incremental amount up to $100.0 million. In 2019, Park-Ohio entered into Amendment No. 4 to the Credit Agreement, extending the maturity of the Credit Agreement to November 26, 2024.

Finance Leases

In August 2015, the Company entered into a Capital Lease Agreement (the “Lease Agreement”). The Lease Agreement provides the Company up to $50.0 million for finance leases. Finance lease obligations of $17.9 million were borrowed under the Lease Agreement to acquire machinery and equipment as of March 31, 2020.

Covenants

Table of Contents

The future availability of bank borrowings under the revolving credit facility provided by the Credit Agreement is based on (1) our calculated availability under the Credit Agreement and, (2) if such calculated availability decreases below $46.875 million, our ability to meet a debt service ratio covenant. If our calculated availability is less than $46.875 million, our debt service coverage ratio must be greater than 1.0. At March 31, 2020, our calculated availability under the Credit Agreement was $169.0 million; therefore, the debt service ratio covenant did not apply.

Failure to maintain calculated availability of at least $46.875 million and meet the debt service ratio covenant could materially impact the availability and interest rate of future borrowings. Our debt service coverage ratio could be materially impacted by negative economic trends, including the negative trends caused by the COVID-19 pandemic. To make certain permitted payments as defined under the Credit Agreement, including but not limited to acquisitions and dividends, we must meet defined availability thresholds ranging from $37.5 million to $46.875 million, and a defined debt service coverage ratio of 1.15.

We were also in compliance with the other covenants contained in the revolving credit facility as of March 31, 2020. While we expect to remain in compliance throughout 2020, declines in sales volumes in the future, including further declines caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, could adversely impact our ability to remain in compliance with certain of these financial covenants. Additionally, to the extent our customers are adversely affected by declines in the economy in general, including the decline caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, they may be unable to pay their accounts payable to us on a timely basis or at all, which could make our accounts receivable ineligible for purposes of the revolving credit facility and could reduce our borrowing base and our ability to borrow under such facility.

Dividends

The Company paid dividends to shareholders of $1.6 million during the three months ended March 31, 2020. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the Company has temporarily suspended paying a quarterly dividend to our common shareholders.

Seasonality; Variability of Operating Results

The timing of orders placed by our customers has varied with, among other factors, orders for customers’ finished goods, customer production schedules, competitive conditions and general economic conditions. The variability of the level and timing of orders has, from time to time, resulted in significant periodic and quarterly fluctuations in the operations of our businesses. Such variability is particularly evident in our capital equipment business, included in the Engineered Products segment, which typically ships large systems at a relatively lower pace than our other businesses.

Critical Accounting Policies

Our critical accounting policies are described in "Item. 7 Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations," and in the notes to our consolidated financial statements for the year ended December 31, 2019, both contained in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. There were no new critical accounting policies or updates to existing critical accounting policies as a result of new accounting pronouncements in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q.

The application of our critical accounting policies may require management to make judgments and estimates about the amounts reflected in the condensed consolidated financial statements. Management uses historical experience and all available information to make these estimates and judgments, and different amounts could be reported using different assumptions and estimates.

Forward-Looking Statements

This Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q contains certain statements that are “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of Section 27A of the Securities Act and Section 21E of the Exchange Act. The words “believes”, “anticipates”, “plans”, “expects”, “intends”, “estimates” and similar expressions are intended to identify forward-looking statements.

These forward-looking statements, including statements regarding future performance of the Company, that are subject to

known and unknown risks, uncertainties and other factors that may cause our actual results, performance and achievements, or

industry results, to be materially different from any future results, performance or achievements expressed or implied by such

forward-looking statements. These factors that could cause actual results to differ materially from expectations include, but are

not limited to, the following: the ultimate impact the COVID-19 pandemic has on our business, results of operations, financial position and liquidity; our substantial indebtedness; the uncertainty of the global economic environment; general business conditions and competitive factors, including pricing pressures and product innovation; demand for our products and

services; the impact of labor disturbances affecting our customers; raw material availability and pricing; fluctuations in energy

costs; component part availability and pricing; changes in our relationships with customers and suppliers; the financial

condition of our customers, including the impact of any bankruptcies; our ability to successfully integrate recent and future

acquisitions into existing operations; the amounts and timing, if any, of purchases of our common stock; changes in general

economic conditions such as inflation rates, interest rates, tax rates, unemployment rates, higher labor and healthcare costs,

recessions and changing government policies, laws and regulations, including those related to the current global uncertainties

and crises, such as tariffs and surcharges; adverse impacts to us, our suppliers and customers from acts of terrorism or

hostilities; public health issues, including the outbreak of COVID-19 and its impact on our facilities and operations and our

customers and suppliers; our ability to meet various covenants, including financial covenants, contained in the agreements

governing our indebtedness; disruptions, uncertainties or volatility in the credit markets that may limit our access to capital;

potential disruption due to a partial or complete reconfiguration of the European Union; increasingly stringent domestic and

foreign governmental regulations, including those affecting the environment or import and export controls and other trade

barriers; inherent uncertainties involved in assessing our potential liability for environmental remediation-related activities; the

outcome of pending and future litigation and other claims and disputes with customers; our dependence on the automotive and

heavy-duty truck industries, which are highly cyclical; the dependence of the automotive industry on consumer spending; our

ability to negotiate contracts with labor unions; our dependence on key management; our dependence on information systems;

our ability to continue to pay cash dividends, and the other factors we describe under “Item 1A. Risk Factors” included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019. Any forward-looking statement speaks only as of the date on which such statement is made, and we undertake no obligation to update any forward-looking statement, whether as a result of new information, future events or otherwise, except as required by law. In light of these and other uncertainties, the inclusion of a forward-looking statement herein should not be regarded as a representation by us that our plans and objectives will be achieved.



Item 3.	Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosure About Market Risk

We are exposed to market risk, including changes in interest rates. As of March 31, 2020, we are subject to interest rate risk on borrowings under the floating rate revolving credit facility provided by our Credit Agreement. A 100-basis-point increase in the interest rate would have resulted in an increase in interest expense on these borrowings of approximately $0.5 million during the three-month period ended March 31, 2020.

Our foreign subsidiaries generally conduct business in local currencies. We face translation risks related to the changes in foreign currency exchange rates. Amounts invested in our foreign operations are translated in U.S. dollars at the exchange rates in effect at the balance sheet date. The resulting translation adjustments are recorded as a component of Accumulated other comprehensive loss in the Shareholders' equity section of the accompanying Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Sales and expenses at our foreign operations are translated into U.S. dollars at the applicable monthly average exchange rates. Therefore, changes in exchange rates may either positively or negatively affect our net sales and expenses from foreign operations as expressed in U.S. dollars.

Our largest exposures to commodity prices relate to metal and natural gas prices, which have fluctuated widely in recent years. We do not have any commodity swap agreements, forward purchase or hedge contracts.



Item 4.	Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of disclosure controls and procedures.

Under the supervision of and with the participation of our management, including our chief executive officer and chief financial officer, we evaluated the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15(d)-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on that evaluation, our chief executive officer and chief financial officer have concluded that, as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in internal control over financial reporting.

During the quarter ended March 31, 2020, there were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

Part II. Other Information



Item 1.	Legal Proceedings

We are subject to various pending and threatened lawsuits in which claims for monetary damages are asserted in the ordinary course of business. While any litigation involves an element of uncertainty, in the opinion of management, liabilities, if any, arising from currently pending or threatened litigation are not expected to have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations.

In addition to the routine lawsuits and asserted claims noted above, we were a party to the lawsuits and legal proceedings described below as of March 31, 2020:

We were a co-defendant in approximately 119 cases asserting claims on behalf of approximately 222 plaintiffs alleging personal injury as a result of exposure to asbestos. These asbestos cases generally relate to production and sale of asbestos-containing products and allege various theories of liability, including negligence, gross negligence and strict liability, and seek compensatory and, in some cases, punitive damages.

In every asbestos case in which we are named as a party, the complaints are filed against multiple named defendants. In substantially all of the asbestos cases, the plaintiffs either claim damages in excess of a specified amount, typically a minimum amount sufficient to establish jurisdiction of the court in which the case was filed (jurisdictional minimums generally range from $25,000 to $75,000), or do not specify the monetary damages sought. To the extent that any specific amount of damages is sought, the amount applies to claims against all named defendants.

There are three asbestos cases, involving 19 plaintiffs, that plead specified damages against named defendants. In each of the three cases, the plaintiff is seeking compensatory and punitive damages based on a variety of potentially alternative causes of action. In two cases, the plaintiff has alleged three counts at $3.0 million compensatory and punitive damages each; one count at $3.0 million compensatory and $1.0 million punitive damages; one count at $1.0 million. In the third case, the plaintiff has alleged compensatory and punitive damages, each in the amount of $20.0 million, for three separate causes of action, and $5.0 million compensatory damages for the fifth cause of action.

Historically, we have been dismissed from asbestos cases on the basis that the plaintiff incorrectly sued one of our subsidiaries or because the plaintiff failed to identify any asbestos-containing product manufactured or sold by us or our subsidiaries. We intend to vigorously defend these asbestos cases, and believe we will continue to be successful in being dismissed from such cases. However, it is not possible to predict the ultimate outcome of asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings due to the unpredictable nature of personal injury litigation. Despite this uncertainty, and although our results of operations and cash flows for a particular period could be adversely affected by asbestos-related lawsuits, claims and proceedings, management believes that the ultimate resolution of these matters will not have a material adverse effect on our financial condition, liquidity or results of operations. Among the factors management considered in reaching this conclusion were: (a) our historical success in being dismissed from these types of lawsuits on the bases mentioned above; (b) many cases have been improperly filed against one of our subsidiaries; (c) in many cases the plaintiffs have been unable to establish any causal relationship to us or our products or premises; (d) in many cases, the plaintiffs have been unable to demonstrate that they have suffered any identifiable injury or compensable loss at all or that any injuries that they have incurred did in fact result from alleged exposure to asbestos; and (e) the complaints assert claims against multiple defendants and, in most cases, the damages alleged are not attributed to individual defendants. Additionally, we do not believe that the amounts claimed in any of the asbestos cases are meaningful indicators of our potential exposure because the amounts claimed typically bear no relation to the extent of the plaintiff's injury, if any.

Our cost of defending these lawsuits has not been material to date and, based upon available information, our management does not expect its future costs for asbestos-related lawsuits to have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, liquidity or financial position.

Item 1A.	Risk Factors

In addition to the risk factors previously disclosed in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2019, the Company has also identified the following:

The COVID-19 outbreak has impacted and could in the future materially and adversely affect our business.

The novel strain of the coronavirus identified in China in late 2019 and now affecting the global community has impacted and is expected to continue to impact our operations, and the full nature and extent of the impact is highly uncertain and may be beyond our control. Among other things, uncertainties relating to COVID-19 include the duration of the outbreak, the severity of the virus, and the actions, or perception of actions that may be taken, to contain or treat its impact, by governments and others, including declarations of states of emergency, business closures, manufacturing restrictions and a prolonged period of travel, commercial and/or other similar restrictions and limitations.

As a result of COVID-19 and the measures implemented that are designed to contain its spread, our customers have been and could continue to be negatively impacted as a result of disruption in demand, which could negatively impact our sales and have a material adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Similarly, as a result of COVID-19 and measures implemented that are designed to contain its spread, our suppliers may not have the materials, capacity, or capability to enable the manufacture of our products according to our schedule and specifications. Because of impacts to suppliers' operations, we may need to seek alternate suppliers, which may be more expensive, may not be available or may result in delays in shipments to us and subsequently to our customers, each of which would affect our results of operations.

The COVID-19 pandemic has also disrupted our internal operations, including by heightening the risk that a significant portion of our workforce will suffer illness or otherwise not be permitted or be unable to work and exposing us to cyber and other risks associated with a large number of our employees working remotely. Certain of our facilities have experienced temporary work disruptions as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic, and we cannot predict whether these will continue or our facilities will experience more significant or frequent disruptions in the future. Furthermore, we may need to reduce our workforce as a result of declines in our business caused by the COVID-19 pandemic, and any such reduction would cause us to incur costs. Moreover, there can be no assurance that we would be able to rehire our workforce in the event our business experiences a subsequent recovery.

The impact of the COVID-19 pandemic continues to evolve and its duration and ultimate disruption to our customers and to our supply chain, and related financial impact to us, cannot be estimated at this time. Should such disruption continue for an extended period of time, the impact could have a more severe adverse effect on our business, results of operations and financial condition. Additionally, weaker economic conditions generally could result in impairment in value of our tangible or intangible assets, or our ability to raise additional capital, if needed.
