VSE CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(UNAUDITED)
September 30, 2024
Table of Contents




(1) Nature of Operations and Basis of Presentation

Nature of Operations

VSE Corporation (collectively, with its consolidated subsidiaries), "VSE," the "Company," "us," "we," or "our" is a leading provider of aftermarket parts distribution and maintenance, repair and overhaul ("MRO") services for air and land transportation assets for commercial and government markets. We operate in two reportable segments aligned with our operating segments: Aviation and Fleet.

Basis of Presentation

Our accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements have been prepared in accordance with U.S. Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP") for interim financial information and in accordance with the instructions to SEC Form 10-Q and Article 10 of SEC Regulation S-X. Therefore, such financial statements do not include all the information and footnotes required by U.S. GAAP for complete financial statements and should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and footnotes thereto included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2023 ("2023 Form 10-K"). In our opinion, all adjustments, including normal recurring items, considered necessary for a fair presentation of results for the interim periods have been included in the accompanying unaudited consolidated financial statements. Operating results for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending December 31, 2024. 

In February 2024, we entered into two separate agreements to sell substantially all of the Federal and Defense segment assets. See Note (3) "Discontinued Operations" for further information. The consolidated financial statements reflect the Federal and Defense segment's results of operations as discontinued operations for all periods presented, and the related assets and liabilities as held-for-sale as of December 31, 2023.

Use of Estimates

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities and 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. Significant estimates affecting the financial statements include fair value measurements, inventory provisions, collectability of receivables, valuation allowances on deferred tax assets, fair value of goodwill and other intangible assets and contingencies.

Underwritten Public Offering

In May 2024, we entered into an underwriting agreement with certain underwriters, relating to the issuance and sale of up to 2,429,577 shares of the Company's common stock at a public offering price of $71.00 per share. On May 17, 2024, the Company issued 2,429,577 shares pursuant to the agreement, which included the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares. We received proceeds of approximately $162 million in connection with the offerings, net of issuance costs. We used substantially all of the proceeds of the public offering to repay outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, including amounts borrowed to pay the purchase price of the acquisition of Turbine Controls, LLC ("TCI"), and for general corporate purposes.

Recent Accounting Pronouncement

Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncement Not Yet Adopted

In November 2023, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which requires public entities to disclose information about their reportable segments’ significant expenses and other segment items on an interim and annual basis. Public entities with a single reportable segment are required to apply the disclosure requirements in ASU 2023-07, as well as all existing segment disclosures and reconciliation requirements in ASC 280 on an interim and annual basis. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and for interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. This guidance will be adopted by us beginning with the annual period of 2024. We are currently evaluating the impact that adoption of ASU 2023-07 may have on our consolidated financial statements and disclosure.

(2) Acquisitions

Turbine Controls, LLC

On April 24, 2024, we completed the acquisition of TCI for a total consideration of $122.2 million, consisting of net cash consideration of $112.2 million, which included $1.5 million as a net working capital adjustment, and in-kind payment in the form of shares of the Company's common stock with a value equal to approximately $10.0 million. The purchase price of this acquisition was funded by borrowings under our revolving credit facility. TCI is a leading provider of aftermarket maintenance, repair and overhaul ("MRO") support services for complex engine components, as well as engine and airframe accessories, across commercial and military applications. The acquisition presents an opportunity for VSE's Aviation segment to accelerate its MRO strategy, including expanding our repair capability offerings and adding several new OEM relationships.

The purchase price for TCI was allocated on a preliminary basis, among assets acquired and liabilities assumed at fair value based on the best available information on the acquisition date, with the excess purchase price recorded as goodwill. The fair values of the non-financial assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, were determined based on preliminary estimates, assumptions, and other information compiled by management, including independent valuations utilizing established industry valuation techniques. We have not yet finalized the determination of the fair values allocated to various assets and liabilities, including, but not limited to, income taxes. Therefore, the allocation of the total consideration for the acquisition to the tangible and identifiable intangible assets acquired, and liabilities assumed, is preliminary until we obtain final information regarding their fair values, which could potentially result in changes to the TCI opening balance sheet.

During the third quarter of 2024, we adjusted the purchase price allocation as a result of working capital and measurement period adjustments. The adjustments were recorded as a result of new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date and resulted in immaterial impacts to accrued expense and other current liabilities, goodwill, and cash consideration, net of cash acquired.

Goodwill resulting from the acquisition of TCI reflects the strategic advantage of expanding our MRO services to new customers. The value attributed to goodwill and customer relationships is deductible for income tax purposes. The estimated value attributed to the customer relationship intangible assets is being amortized on a straight-line basis using a useful life of 10 years.

We incurred $0.1 million and $2.2 million of acquisition-related expenses related to the TCI acquisition during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, respectively, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The operating results of TCI were included in our consolidated results of operations from the date of acquisition. Our consolidated revenues and operating income include $30.7 million and $2.1 million, respectively, for the three months ended September 30, 2024, and $54.2 million and $3.9 million, respectively, for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, from the acquisition of TCI. Operating income does not include the impact of acquisition-related expenses incurred by VSE Corporation.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations for TCI and VSE Corporation for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, and 2023, respectively. The unaudited consolidated pro forma results of operations are as follows (in thousands):

other transaction costs. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not intended to reflect the actual results of operations that would have occurred if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023, nor is it indicative of future operating results.

Precision Fuel Components, LLC

On February 1, 2023, our Aviation segment acquired Precision Fuel Components, LLC ("Precision Fuel") for a purchase price of $11.7 million. Precision Fuel operating results are included in our Aviation segment beginning on the acquisition date. The acquisition was not material to our consolidated financial statements.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2023, we incurred $0.2 million of acquisition-related expenses related to the acquisition of Precision Fuel, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

Desser Aerospace

On July 3, 2023, we completed the acquisition of Desser Holding Company LLC ("Desser Aerospace"), a global aftermarket solutions provider of specialty distribution and MRO services. We purchased Desser Aerospace for a cash consideration of $131.5 million. Concurrent with the closing of the transaction, we immediately sold, in a separate transaction, Desser Aerospace’s propriety solutions businesses to Loar Group Inc. (“Loar”) for a cash consideration of $31.8 million.

During the nine months ended September 30, 2024, we adjusted the purchase price allocation as a result of certain measurement period adjustments to acquired assets and liabilities assumed due to updated valuation reports received from our external valuation specialist, revisions to internal estimates, and new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. The measurement period adjustments included: a decrease in deferred tax liabilities of $1.6 million and an increase in inventories of $0.1 million These adjustments resulted in a decrease to goodwill of $1.7 million.

We completed the purchase accounting valuation for Desser Aerospace during the second quarter of 2024. The final purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands):

We incurred $1.2 million and $3.0 million of acquisition-related expenses related to the Desser Aerospace acquisition during the three and nine ended September 30, 2023, respectively, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses.

The following unaudited pro forma financial information presents the combined results of operations for Desser Aerospace and VSE Corporation for the nine months ended September 30, 2023. The unaudited consolidated pro forma results of operations are as follows (in thousands):

The unaudited pro forma combined financial information presented above has been prepared from historical financial statements that have been adjusted to give effect to the acquisition of Desser Aerospace as though it had occurred on January 1, 2023 and includes adjustments for intangible asset amortization; interest expense and debt issuance costs on long-term debt; acquisition and other transaction costs; and certain costs allocated from the former parent. The unaudited pro forma financial information is not intended to reflect the actual results of operations that would have occurred if the acquisition had occurred on January 1, 2023, nor is it indicative of future operating results.

Honeywell Fuel Control Systems

On September 27, 2023, our Aviation segment entered into an Asset Purchase and License Agreement with Honeywell International Inc., for a purchase price of $105.0 million, to exclusively manufacture, sell, market, distribute, and repair certain Honeywell fuel control systems (the "Honeywell FCS Acquisition"). The purchase price of this acquisition was funded by borrowings under our revolving credit facility. This agreement expands existing distribution and MRO capabilities supporting certain Honeywell’s fuel control systems and associated subcomponents.

The acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under ASC 805, Business Combinations. During the third quarter of 2024, we adjusted the purchase price allocation as a result of a measurement period adjustment to acquired assets due to updated valuation reports received from Honeywell. The adjustment was recorded as a result of new information obtained about facts and circumstances that existed as of the acquisition date. The measurement period adjustment resulted in a decrease in other current assets of $0.5 million, with a corresponding increase to goodwill. We completed the purchase accounting valuation for the Honeywell FCS Acquisition during the third quarter of 2024.

The final purchase price allocation is as follows (in thousands):

(3) Discontinued Operations

In February 2024, we entered into two separate agreements to sell substantially all the Federal and Defense segment's operational assets ("FDS Sale") for a cash consideration of $44.0 million, including amounts in escrow, subject to post-closing adjustments. The FDS Sale is consistent with our long-term strategic growth strategy focused on higher margin and higher growth aftermarket parts distribution and MRO businesses.

We recorded a pre-tax loss on the FDS sale of $12.7 million and transaction fees of $2.5 million during the first quarter of 2024, which are included in loss from discontinued operations, net of tax in the consolidated statements of income.

The components of loss from discontinued operations, net of tax for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 and 2023, consist of the following (in thousands):

Certain assets and liabilities previously reported as held-for-sale were excluded from the FDS sale and were reclassified as held and used, at their respective fair values, on the consolidated balance sheets during the first quarter of 2024. The reclassification related to our Alexandria, VA headquarters office space and consisted of an operating lease right-of-use-asset of $7.1 million, property and equipment of $2.6 million, and an operating lease obligation of $11.0 million. During the second quarter of 2024, we vacated the headquarters office space and, as a result, wrote down the associated lease right-of-use asset and property and equipment. During the third quarter of 2024, we terminated the lease for the vacated headquarters office space. See Note (13) "Lease Abandonment, Lease Termination and Other Restructuring Costs" for further information.

The FDS sale resulted in the divestiture of certain government contracts requiring novation. Until the novation process is finalized, we continue to receive cash collections related to these contracts, which are due to the purchaser. As of September 30, 2024, we have recorded a $3.2 million liability for these collections within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets.

(7) Earnings Per Share

Basic earnings per share ("EPS") is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of shares of common stock outstanding during each period. Shares issued during the period are weighted for the portion of the period that they were outstanding. Our calculation of diluted earnings per common share includes the dilutive effects for the assumed vesting of outstanding stock-based awards. The antidilutive common stock equivalents excluded from the diluted per share calculation are not material.

The weighted-average number of shares outstanding used to compute basic and diluted EPS were as follows:

(8) Commitments and Contingencies

Contingencies

We may have certain claims in the normal course of business, including legal proceedings, against us and against other parties. In our opinion, the resolution of these claims will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

Further, from time-to-time, government agencies audit or investigate whether our operations are being conducted in accordance with applicable contractual and regulatory requirements. Government audits or investigations of us, whether relating to government contracts or conducted for other reasons, could result in administrative, civil or criminal liabilities, including repayments, fines or penalties being imposed upon us, or could lead to suspension or debarment from future government contracting. Government investigations often take years to complete and many result in no adverse action against us. We believe, based upon current information, that the outcome of any such government disputes, audits and investigations will not have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial condition, or cash flows.

(9) Business Segments

The sale of our Federal and Defense segment allows us to focus on a long-term strategic growth strategy focused on higher margin and higher growth aftermarket parts distribution and MRO businesses. Following the sale of our Federal and Defense segment, management of our business operations is conducted under two reportable operating segments:

Aviation
Our Aviation segment provides aftermarket MRO and distribution services to commercial, business and general aviation, cargo, military and defense, and rotorcraft customers globally. Core services include parts distribution, MRO services including engine components and accessories, fuel controls, avionics, pneumatics, hydraulics, wheel and brake, and rotable exchange and supply chain services.

Fleet
Our Fleet segment provides parts, inventory management, e-commerce fulfillment, logistics, supply chain support and other services to support the commercial aftermarket medium- and heavy-duty truck market, and the United States Postal Service ("USPS"). Core services include vehicle parts distribution, sourcing, IT solutions, customized fleet logistics, warehousing, kitting, just-in-time supply chain management, alternative product sourcing, and engineering and technical support.

We evaluate segment performance based on consolidated revenues and operating income. Net sales of our business segments exclude inter-segment sales as these activities are eliminated in consolidation. Corporate expenses are primarily selling, general and administrative expenses not allocated to segments. Our segment information is as follows (in thousands):

Amounts Recorded at Fair ValueFinancial Statement ClassificationFair Value HierarchyFair Value September 30, 2024Fair Value December 31, 2023
Non-COLI assets held in Deferred Supplemental Compensation Plan(a)
Other assetsLevel 1$635 $594 
Interest rate swapsOther assetsLevel 2$283 $2,840 
(a) Non-Company Owned Life Insurance ("COLI") assets held in our deferred supplemental compensation plan consist of equity funds with fair value based on observable inputs such as quoted prices for identical assets in active markets and changes in fair value are recorded as selling, general and administrative expenses.

The carrying amounts of cash and cash equivalents, receivables, accounts payable and amounts included in other current assets and accrued expenses and other current liabilities that meet the definition of a financial instrument approximate fair value due to their relatively short maturity. The carrying value of our outstanding debt obligations approximates its fair value. The fair value of long-term debt is calculated using Level 2 inputs based on interest rates available for debt with terms and maturities similar to our existing debt arrangements.


(12) Income Taxes

Income tax expense during interim periods is based on our estimated annual effective income tax rate plus any discrete items that are recorded in the period in which they occur. Our tax rate is affected by discrete items that may occur in any given year but may not be consistent from year to year.

Our effective tax rate for continuing operations was 20.8% and 19.4% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 respectively, and 27.9% and 25.8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 respectively. The effective tax rates were lower for the three and the nine months ended September 30, 2024 compared to the same periods of the prior year primarily due to lower book income in 2024 and higher excess stock compensation deduction recognized for tax purposes in connection with current year stock vesting.


(13) Lease Abandonment, Lease Termination and Other Restructuring Costs

In connection with the FDS sale as described in Note (3) "Discontinued Operations", we implemented changes during the second quarter of 2024 that resulted in one-time charges primarily related to the lease abandonment of our headquarters office space and certain other corporate restructuring actions.

On June 28, 2024, we ceased use of our 95,000 sq. ft. leased office space in Alexandria, VA. We relocated our VA based corporate staff to a 4,000 sq. ft. office space in Vienna, VA under a new short-term lease. During the second quarter of 2024, we recognized one-time lease abandonment costs of $12.9 million, which comprised of a reduction in our operating lease right-of-use assets of $6.7 million, exit costs of $3.7 million, and a non-cash write-off of certain property and equipment of $2.5 million. These one-time costs are included within lease abandonment and termination (benefits) costs on our consolidated statements of income.

On September 4, 2024, we entered into an agreement to immediately terminate the Alexandria, VA, office space lease in exchange for $12.0 million, payable in two equal installments due in January 2025 and January 2026. During the three months ended September 30, 2024, we recognized a lease termination gain of $0.7 million, which comprised of a $1.1 million net liability reduction, partially offset by a $0.4 million decrease in our remaining operating lease right-of-use asset. The lease termination gain is included within lease abandonment and termination (benefits) costs on our consolidated statements of income. As of September 30, 2024, $6.0 million of the $12.0 million due as a result of the lease termination is classified within accrued expenses and other current liabilities, while the remaining $6.0 million is classified within other long-term liabilities.

Table of Contents

During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, we incurred $0.2 million and $4.0 million, respectively, of corporate restructuring expenses, which are included in selling, general and administrative expenses, primarily related to the cancellation of contracts and leasing agreements associated with the FDS Sale. As of September 30, 2024, approximately $0.8 million of these costs are included within accrued expenses and other current liabilities on our consolidated balance sheets. Our corporate restructuring activities related to the FDS Sale are substantially complete, and we do not expect to incur additional material costs associated with these activities.

(14) Subsequent Events

Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition

In October 2024, we signed a definitive agreement to acquire Kellstrom Aerospace Group, Inc. ("Kellstrom Aerospace"), a diversified global distributor and service provider supporting the commercial aerospace engine aftermarket, for a preliminary purchase price of $200 million, comprised of approximately $185 million in cash and approximately 172,414 shares of common stock to be issued in a private placement pursuant to Section 4(a)(2) of the Securities Act, subject to working capital adjustments (the "Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition"). The transaction is subject to customary closing conditions, including regulatory review, and is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2024.

Underwritten Public Offering

In October 2024, we entered into an underwriting agreement with Jefferies and RBC Capital Markets, acting as representatives of several underwriters, relating to the issuance and sale of 1,724,137 shares of the Company's common stock at a public offering price of $87.00 per share. Under the terms of the agreement, we granted the underwriters an option, exercisable for 30 days, to purchase up to an additional 258,620 shares of common stock. The offering closed on October 17, 2024, resulting in the issuance of 1,982,757 shares, which included the exercise by the underwriters of their option to purchase additional shares, pursuant to the underwriting agreement, for which we received net proceeds of $163.8 million, net of issuance costs.

Net proceeds of $162.0 million were received by the Company, which were used to repay outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, including amounts borrowed to pay the purchase price of the acquisition of TCI and for general corporate purposes.

In October 2024, we entered into an underwriting agreement with certain underwriters, relating to the issuance and sale of up to 1,982,757 shares of the Company's common stock at a public offering price of $87.00 per share. See Note (14) "Subsequent Events" for further information.

Lease Abandonment and Termination

As a result of the Federal and Defense business segment divestiture and evaluation of our facilities, in June 2024, we vacated our corporate and Federal and Defense headquarters office space in Alexandria, Virginia, and relocated the remaining Virginia-based corporate staff to a smaller office space in Vienna, VA. In September 2024, the Alexandria, Virginia office space lease was terminated. The relocation resulted in non-recurring lease abandonment and termination costs, which included the non-cash write-off of the operating lease right-of-use assets, associated property and equipment and lease liabilities. See Note (13) "Lease Abandonment, Lease Termination and Other Restructuring Costs" to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Business Trends

The following discussion provides a brief description of some of the key business factors impacting our results of operations detailed by segment.

-24-

Table of Contents
Aviation Segment

During the third quarter of 2024, our strong program execution of new and existing distribution awards, our expanded portfolio of MRO capabilities, and contributions from recent acquisitions generated strong results, with quarterly revenue reaching $203.6 million for the three months ended September 30, 2024, representing a 34% increase year-over-year. Market growth, share gains and contributions from a recent acquisition have resulted in increased repair and distribution revenue of 86% and 12%, respectively, during the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period for the prior year. Our growth has been driven by several strategic initiatives, including executing on newly awarded distribution agreements, most notably the Pratt Whitney Canada EMEA program, the introduction of new products and service capabilities to our portfolio, including our new Original Equipment Manufacturers ("OEM") licensed manufacturing program, and contributions from TCI.

We believe the acquisition of TCI in April 2024, combined with the recently announced Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition in October 2024, will increase our exposure to the high-growth, higher-margin aviation distribution and MRO markets focused on the engine aftermarket. Furthermore, we believe that the Honeywell FCS acquisition in September 2023 to exclusively manufacture, sell, market, distribute, and repair certain fuel control systems, expands our existing capabilities and provides access to new customers and end markets while strengthening our partnership with Honeywell.

Fleet Segment

During the third quarter of 2024, our Fleet segment's growth was negatively impacted by a decline in activity within the United States Postal Service ("USPS"), partially offset by growth in e-commerce fulfillment and commercial fleet sales. The decline in USPS revenue is the result of USPS' transition to a new Fleet Management Information System, which has led to a temporary reduction in maintenance-related activity and parts usage. We continue to make progress in scaling our e-commerce fulfillment and distribution center in Olive Branch, MS ("Olive Branch facility"). The expansion of the Olive Branch facility has been instrumental in our ability to capture new customers and drive revenue growth within e-commerce fulfillment. Our commercial revenues were 64% of total Fleet segment revenue for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to 47% for the same period in the prior year.

Revenues. Revenues increased for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in the prior year due to growth in our Aviation segment of $51.3 million, partially offset by declines in our Fleet segment of $9.0 million. See "Segment Operating Results" section below for further discussion of revenues by segment.

Revenues increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period in the prior year due to growth in our Aviation segment of $168.5 million, partially offset by declines in our Fleet segment of $12.6 million. See "Segment Operating Results" section below for further discussion of revenues by segment.

Costs and Operating Expenses. Costs and operating expenses increased for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same periods in the prior year primarily due to increases in volume. Costs and operating expenses for our

operating segments increase and decrease in conjunction with the level of business activity and revenues generated by each segment. See "Segment Operating Results" for discussion of cost and operating expenses by segment.

Operating Income. Operating income decreased for the three months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period of the prior year primarily due to a decrease in operating income of $6.1 million for our Fleet segment. This operating income decrease was partially offset by an increase of $4.5 million for our Aviation segment. See "Segment Operating Results" for a discussion of operating income by segment.

Operating income decreased for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, compared to the same period of the prior year primarily due to an increase in corporate costs, including net lease abandonment and termination charges of $12.2 million, corporate restructuring charges of $4.0 million, and a decrease in operating income of $11.0 million for our Fleet segment. These operating income decreases were partially offset by an increase of $19.8 million for our Aviation segment. See "Segment Operating Results" for a discussion of operating income by segment.

Interest Expense. Interest expense increased for the three months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to an increase in our debt facility borrowings. Interest expense increased for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period in the prior year primarily due to an increase in our debt facility borrowings and a higher average interest rate on borrowings outstanding.

Provision for Income Taxes. Our effective tax rate for continued operations was 20.8% and 19.4% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 respectively, and 27.9% and 25.8% for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2023 respectively. Our tax rate is affected by discrete items that may occur in any given year but may not be consistent from year to year. Permanent differences such as foreign derived intangible income deduction, Section 162(m) limitation, capital gains tax treatment, state income taxes, certain federal and state tax credits and other items caused differences between our statutory U.S. federal income tax rate and our effective tax rate. The lower effective tax rates for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2024 primarily resulted from lower book income and higher excess stock compensation deduction for tax purposes in connection with current year stock vesting in 2024.

The operating income decrease for the nine months ended September 30, 2024 was partially offset by a reduction in the amortization of intangible assets.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

Liquidity

Our internal sources of liquidity are primarily from operating activities, specifically from changes in our level of revenues and associated inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable, and from profitability. Significant increases or decreases in revenues and inventory, accounts receivable and accounts payable can affect our liquidity. Our inventory and accounts payable levels can be affected by the timing of large opportunistic inventory purchases and by distributor agreement requirements. Our accounts receivable and accounts payable levels can be affected by changes in the level of work we perform and by the timing of large purchases. In addition to operating cash flows, other significant factors that affect our overall management of liquidity include capital expenditures, and investments in the acquisition of businesses.

Our primary sources of external financing are the capital markets and our credit agreement. Our credit agreement is with a bank group and includes a term loan and a revolving facility, with an aggregate maximum borrowing capacity of our revolving facility of $350.0 million. Under the credit agreement we may elect to increase the maximum availability of the term loan, the revolving facility, or a combination of both, subject to customary lender commitment approvals. The aggregate limit of increases is $25.0 million. Our outstanding borrowings under the credit agreement increased approximately $20.0 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024. As of September 30, 2024, we had borrowings outstanding under our term loan of $285.0 million, borrowings outstanding under our revolving facility of $168.0 million, outstanding letters of credit of $0.8 million, and $181.2 million of unused commitments under the credit agreement.

In May 2024, we completed an underwritten public offering of 2,429,577 shares of the Company's common stock, generating proceeds of $162.0 million in connection with the offering, net of issuance costs. We used substantially all of the proceeds of the public offering to repay outstanding borrowings under our revolving credit facility, including amounts borrowed to pay the purchase price of the acquisition of TCI and for general corporate purposes.

In October 2024, we completed an underwritten public offering of 1,982,757 shares of the Company's common stock, generating proceeds of $163.8 million in connection with the offering, net of issuance costs. The net proceeds will be used to finance a portion of the cash consideration for the Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition, which is expected to close in the fourth quarter of 2024, subject to customary closing conditions including regulatory review. Pending the application of the net proceeds as described above, the Company may use the net proceeds from the offering for general corporate purposes, including to invest in short-term, investment grade, interest-bearing securities or to repay outstanding borrowings under the revolving facility.

We believe our existing balances of cash and cash equivalents, along with our cash flows from operations and debt instruments under our credit agreement mentioned above, will provide sufficient liquidity for our business operations as well as capital expenditures, dividends, and other capital requirements associated with our business operations over the next twelve months and thereafter for the foreseeable future.

Cash Flows

Net cash provided by financing activities173,916 298,034 
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents$(23)$20,351 

Cash used in operating activities increased $36.6 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period of the prior year. The increase was primarily due to greater use of cash to satisfy liabilities from strategic inventory purchases.

Table of Contents
Cash used in investing activities decreased $140.4 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to cash paid, net of cash acquired, for the Desser Aerospace, Honeywell FCS and Precision Fuel acquisitions of $218.7 million during the nine months ended September 30, 2023, as well as cash provided of $42.1 million related to the FDS sale during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. The decrease was partially offset by cash paid, net of cash acquired, of $112.2 million for the TCI acquisition during the nine months ended September 30, 2024. See Note (2) "Acquisitions" and Note (3) "Discontinued Operations" to the consolidated financial statements for further information.

Cash provided by financing activities decreased $124.1 million for the nine months ended September 30, 2024, as compared to the same period of the prior year. The decrease was primarily due to lower net borrowings of our debt during the current period of $154.9 million, partially offset by an increase of $32.1 million in proceeds related to our public underwritten offering of our common stock in May 2024 as compared to our public underwritten offering of our common stock in July 2023.

We paid cash dividends totaling $5.0 million or $0.30 per share during the nine months ending September 30, 2024. Pursuant to our credit agreement, our payment of cash dividends is subject to annual restrictions. We have paid cash dividends each year since 1973.

Disclosures About Market Risk

Interest Rate Risk

Our credit agreement provides available borrowing to us at variable interest rates. Our interest expense is impacted by the overall global economic and interest rate environment. Over the past several years, the inflationary environment has also resulted in central banks raising short-term interest rates. Accordingly, future interest rate changes could potentially put us at risk for a material adverse impact on future earnings and cash flows. To mitigate the risks associated with future interest rate movements we have employed interest rate hedges to fix the rate on a portion of our outstanding borrowings for various periods.

For additional information related to our debt and interest rate swap agreements, see Note (5) and Note (6), respectively, to our Consolidated Financial Statements contained in this report.

Other than as discussed above, there have been no material changes to our market risks from those discussed in our most recently filed Annual Report on Form 10-K.

Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates and Judgments

Our consolidated financial statements are prepared in accordance with United States Generally Accepted Accounting Principles ("U.S. GAAP"), which require us to make estimates and assumptions. Certain critical accounting policies affect the more significant accounts, particularly those that involve judgments, estimates and assumptions used in the preparation of our consolidated financial statements, including revenue recognition, inventory valuation, business combinations, goodwill and intangible assets, and income taxes. If any of these estimates, assumptions or judgments prove to be incorrect, our reported results could be materially affected. Actual results may differ significantly from our estimates under different assumptions or conditions. See "Item 7.

Item 4.        Controls and Procedures

Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures

Our management has evaluated, with the participation of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, the effectiveness of the disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) or 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the "Exchange Act")). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of September 30, 2024, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective to ensure that information we are required to disclose in reports that we file or submit under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms 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.

Changes in Internal Control Over Financial Reporting

In connection with our acquisition of TCI, certain areas of internal control over financial reporting changed. These areas are primarily related to integrating our corporate functions such as entity level controls and certain financial reporting controls. Certain control structure items remain in operation at TCI, primarily related to information technology, inventory management, human resources, processing and billing of revenues, and collection of those revenues. The control structure at TCI has been modified to appropriately oversee and incorporate these activities into the overall control structure. We will continue to evaluate the need for additional internal controls over financial reporting.
There have been no additional changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarterly period covered by this report that materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

The Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition may not occur at all or may not occur in the expected time frame, which may negatively affect the trading price of our common stock and our future business and financial results.

No assurance can be provided that the Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition will be completed in the manner and on the time frame currently anticipated, or at all. Completion of the Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition is subject to the satisfaction or waiver of a number of conditions beyond our control that may prevent, delay or otherwise materially adversely affect its completion. If the Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition is not completed, if there are significant delays in completing the Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition or if the Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition involves an unexpected amount of remedies required by regulatory authorities or the issuance of a higher amount of share consideration than anticipated, it could negatively affect the trading price of our common stock and our future business and financial results.

We may not realize the strategic benefits and cost synergies that are anticipated from the planned Kellstrom Acquisition.

The benefits that are expected to result from the Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition will depend, in part, on our ability to consummate the Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition within the anticipated time period, or at all, and to integrate and realize the anticipated cost synergies from the Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition. There is a significant degree of difficulty and management distraction inherent in the process of integrating an acquisition. Some members of our management may be required to devote considerable time to this integration process, which will decrease the time they will have to manage the Company, service existing customers, attract new customers and develop new products or strategies. If management is not able to effectively manage the integration process, or if any significant business activities are interrupted as a result of the integration process, our business, financial condition and results of operations could suffer. We also cannot guarantee that the benefits and cost synergies that we currently expect to realize as a result of the Kellstrom Aerospace Acquisition will be achieved within our anticipated time frames or at all. Additionally, we may incur substantial expenses in connection with the integration of Kellstrom Aerospace, which may exceed expectations and offset certain anticipated benefits.


Item 2.        Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities, Use of Proceeds and Issuer Purchases of Equity Securities

We did not purchase any of our equity securities during the period covered by this report.


Item 5.        Other Information

During the three months ended September 30, 2024, no director or "officer," as defined in Rule 16a-1(f) of the Exchange Act, of the Company adopted, modified, or terminated a "Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement" or a "non-Rule 10b5-1 trading arrangement," as each term is defined in Item 408 of Regulation S-K.
