NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

(UNAUDITED)

1.ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

CSW Industrials, Inc. (“CSWI,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is a diversified industrial growth company with a strategic focus on providing niche, value-added products in the end markets we serve. We operate in three business segments: Contractor Solutions, Specialized Reliability Solutions and Engineered Building Solutions. Our products include mechanical products for heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (“HVAC/R”), plumbing products, grilles, registers and diffusers (“GRD”), building safety solutions and high-performance specialty lubricants and sealants. End markets that we serve include HVAC/R, architecturally-specified building products, plumbing, general industrial, energy, rail transportation and mining. Our manufacturing operations are concentrated in the United States (“U.S.”), Vietnam and Canada, and we have distribution operations in the U.S., Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). Our products are sold directly to end users or through designated channels in over 100 countries around the world, primarily including the U.S., Canada, the U.K. and Australia.

Drawing on our innovative and proven technologies, we seek to deliver solutions primarily to contractors that place a premium on superior performance and reliability. We believe our brands are well-known in the specific end markets we serve and have a reputation for high quality. The reputation of our product portfolio is built on more than 100 well-respected brand names, such as AC Guard®, Air Sentry®, Balco®, Cover GuardTM, Deacon®, FalconTM, Greco®, Jet-Lube®, Kopr-Kote®, Leak Freeze®, Metacaulk®, No. 5®, OilSafe®, RectorSeal®, Safe-T-Switch®, Shoemaker Manufacturing®, Smoke Guard®, TRUaire® and Whitmore®. These products are distributed through an extensive wholesale distribution network serving the HVAC/R, architecturally-specified buildings products, plumbing, general industrial, energy, rail transportation and mining end markets. Our desire to develop solutions for our contractors, combined with the differentiated nature of our niche product offerings, drives loyalty to our brands. We rely on both organic growth and inorganic growth through acquisitions to provide an increasingly broad portfolio of performance optimizing solutions that meet our customers’ ever-changing needs. We have a successful record of making attractive and synergistic acquisitions that support expansion of our broad portfolio of solutions, and we remain focused on identifying additional acquisition opportunities in our core end markets.

We continue to assess and proactively manage the impacts of COVID-19 on all aspects of our business and geographies, including with respect to our employees, customers, communities and supply chain. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the COVID-19 pandemic had no direct or indirect material impact on our consolidated operating results. While the Federal COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Declaration expired on May 11, 2023, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.

We continue to monitor the Russian invasion of Ukraine and its global impact. We have no operations, employees or assets in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine, nor do we source goods or services of any material amount from those countries, whether directly or indirectly. Since shortly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022, we have had no commercial activities including sales in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine. While the conflict continues to evolve and the outcome remains highly uncertain, we do not currently believe the Russia-Ukraine conflict will have a material impact on our business and results of operations. However, if the Russia-Ukraine conflict continues or worsens, leading to greater global economic or political disruptions and uncertainty, our business and results of operations could be materially impacted as a result.

We are monitoring the Israel and the Gaza Strip conflict and its global impact. While the conflict continues to evolve and the outcome remains uncertain, we do not currently believe the Gaza Strip conflict will have a material impact on our business and results of operations.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2023 (“Quarterly Report”), include all revenues, costs, assets and liabilities directly attributable to CSWI and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements are for us and our consolidated subsidiaries, each of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary, except our 50% investment in a variable interest entity ("VIE") for which we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary and therefore have consolidated into our financial statements. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of CSWI’s financial position as of December 31, 2023, and the results of operations for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.

The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in CSWI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”).

Accounting Policies

We have consistently applied the accounting policies described in our Annual Report in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements.  

Accounting Developments

Pronouncements not yet implemented

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which provides updates to qualitative and quantitative reportable segment disclosure requirements, including enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and increased interim disclosure requirements, among others. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendments should be applied retrospectively. This ASU will be effective for our Form 10-K for fiscal 2025 and our Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. We are currently evaluating the impact this ASU may have on our financial statement disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which provides qualitative and quantitative updates to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures, among others, in order to enhance the transparency of income tax disclosures, including consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and disaggregation by jurisdiction of income taxes paid. ASU 2023-09 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted. This ASU should be applied prospectively; however, retrospective application is also permitted. This ASU will be effective for our Form 10-K for fiscal 2026. We are currently evaluating the impact this ASU may have on our financial statement disclosures.

2. ACQUISITIONS

Cover Guard, Inc. and AC Guard, Inc.

On July 8, 2022, we acquired the assets of Cover Guard, Inc. (“CG”) and AC Guard, Inc. ("ACG"), based in Orlando, Florida, for an aggregate purchase price of $18.4 million, comprised of cash consideration of $18.0 million and additional contingent considerations initially measured at $0.4 million based on CG and ACG meeting defined financial targets over a period of 5 years. In conjunction with the acquisition, we agreed to pay an additional $3.7 million, comprised of cash consideration of $1.5 million and 5-year annuity payments (value of $2.2 million) to a third party to secure the related intellectual property. The total cash consideration at closing of $19.5 million was funded with cash on hand and borrowings under our existing Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 7). CG and ACG product lines further expand Contractor Solutions’ offering of leading HVAC/R accessories. Through these differentiated products, our Contractor Solutions segment expects to achieve incremental ductless and ducted HVAC/R market penetration. As of the acquisition date, the estimated fair

8

value of the contingent consideration was classified as a long-term liability of $0.4 million and was determined using an option pricing model simulation that determines an average projected payment value across numerous iterations.

The CG and ACG acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805 ("Topic 805"). The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary fair value of the identifiable assets acquired was $1.8 million allocated to goodwill, which represents the value expected to be obtained from owning products that are complementary to our existing HVAC/R and plumbing offerings and provide a meaningful value proposition to our end use customers. The allocation of the fair value of the assets acquired included customer lists ($9.8 million), patent ($1.8 million), trademarks ($0.7 million), inventory ($3.1 million), accounts receivable ($0.9 million) and equipment ($0.3 million). Customer lists and patents are being amortized over 15 years and 10 years, respectively, while trademarks and goodwill are not being amortized.  The Company completed the analysis of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the related allocation during the three months ended September 30, 2023. Goodwill and all intangible assets, including customer lists, trademarks and patent are deductible and amortized over 15 years for income tax purposes. CG and ACG activity has been included in our Contractor Solutions segment since the acquisition date. No pro forma information has been provided due to immateriality.

The additional $3.7 million we agreed to pay a third party was accounted for as an acquisition of intellectual property and is being amortized over 15 years.

Falcon Stainless, Inc.

On October 4, 2022, we acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Falcon Stainless, Inc. ("Falcon"), based in Temecula, California, for an aggregate purchase price of $37.1 million (including $1.0 million cash acquired), comprising cash consideration of $34.6 million and an additional payment of $2.5 million due one-year from the acquisition date assuming certain business conditions are met. The cash consideration was funded with cash on hand and borrowings under our existing Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 7). Falcon products are well-known among the professional trades for supplying enhanced water flow delivery and customer satisfaction and supplement our Contractor Solutions segment's existing product portfolio.

The Falcon acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under Topic 805. The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary fair value of the identifiable assets acquired was $17.5 million allocated to goodwill, which represents the value expected to be obtained from owning products that are complementary to our existing plumbing offerings and provide a meaningful value proposition to our end use customers. The allocation of the fair value of the assets acquired comprises customer lists ($17.7 million), trademarks ($4.7 million), accounts receivable ($1.4 million), cash ($1.0 million), inventory ($0.7 million), other current asset ($0.1 million) and other assets ($3.0 million), net of current liabilities (0.7 million) and other liabilities ($8.4 million). Customer lists are being amortized over 15 years, while trademarks and goodwill are not being amortized.  The Company completed the analysis of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the related allocation during the three months ended December 31, 2023. Goodwill and all intangible assets are not deductible for income tax purposes. Falcon activity has been included in our Contractor Solutions segment since the acquisition date. No pro forma information has been provided due to immateriality.

3. CONSOLIDATION OF VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY AND REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST

Whitmore Joint Venture

On April 1, 2021, Whitmore Manufacturing, LLC (“Whitmore”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSWI, completed the formation of the joint venture (the "Whitmore JV") with Pennzoil-Quaker State Company dba SOPUS Products (“Shell”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shell Oil Company that comprises Shell’s U.S. lubricants business.

The Whitmore JV is deemed to be a VIE as the equity investors at risk, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. The major factor that led to the conclusion that the Company is the primary beneficiary of this VIE is that Whitmore has the power to direct the most significant activities due to its ability to direct the manufacturing decisions of the Whitmore JV. Whitmore JV's total net assets are presented below (in thousands):

	December 31, 2023
Cash	$	5,483
Accounts receivable, net	6,133
Inventories, net	3,273

Total assets	$	35,388
Accounts payable	$	3,524
Accrued and other current liabilities	1,718
Other long-term liabilities	166
Total liabilities	$	5,408

During the nine months ended December 31, 2023, the Whitmore JV generated net income of $1.3 million.

The Whitmore JV's LLC Agreement contains a put option that gives either member the right to sell its 50% equity interest in the Whitmore JV to the other member at a dollar amount equivalent to 90% of the initiating member's equity interest determined based on the fair market value of the Whitmore JV's net assets. This put option can be exercised, at either member's discretion, by providing written notice to the other member during the month of July 2024 and every two years afterwards. This redeemable noncontrolling interest is recorded at the higher of the redemption value or carrying value each reporting period. Changes in redeemable noncontrolling interest for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 were as follows (in thousands):

Balance at March 31, 2023	$	18,464

6. SHARE-BASED COMPENSATION

Refer to Note 5 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report for a description of the 2015 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan (the "2015 Plan"). As of December 31, 2023, 337,565 shares were available for issuance under the 2015 Plan.

We recorded share-based compensation expense as follows for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 (in thousands): 

	Three Months Ended December 31,				Nine Months Ended December 31,
	2023		2022		2023		2022

Canceled	(5,003)	142.09
Outstanding at December 31, 2023	220,819	$	166.29

During the restriction period, the holders of restricted shares are entitled to vote and receive dividends. Unvested restricted shares outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 included 96,814 and 99,474 shares (at target), respectively, with performance-based vesting provisions, and a vesting range of 0%-200% based on pre-defined performance targets with market conditions.  Performance-based awards accrue dividend equivalents, which are settled upon (and to the extent of) vesting of the underlying award and do not have the right to vote until vested. Performance-based awards are earned upon the achievement of objective performance targets and are payable in common shares.  Compensation expense is calculated based on the fair market value as determined by a Monte Carlo simulation and is recognized over a 36-month cliff vesting period. We granted no awards with performance-based vesting provisions during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. We granted 29,120 and 21,087 awards with performance-based vesting provisions during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

At December 31, 2023, we had unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted shares of $22.3 million, which will be amortized into net income over the remaining weighted average vesting period of approximately 2.3 years. The total fair value of restricted shares granted during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $5.5 million and $5.4 million, respectively. The total fair value of restricted shares granted during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $12.2 million and $9.4 million, respectively. The total fair value of restricted shares vested during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $6.3 million and $4.7 million, respectively. The total fair value of restricted shares vested during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $14.7 million and $10.1 million, respectively.

(a) Represents the interest rate effective on December 31, 2023, and March 31, 2023, respectively, excluding the impact from the interest rate swap.

Revolving Credit Facility

As discussed in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report, prior to May 2021, we maintained a five-year, $300.0 million revolving credit facility agreement (the "First Credit Agreement"), which was scheduled to mature on September 15, 2022. On May 18, 2021, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Credit Agreement”), which replaced the First Credit Agreement and initially provided for a $400.0 million revolving credit facility with a $25.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $10.0 million sublimit for swingline loans, with an additional $150 million accordion feature. The Second Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on May 18, 2026. The Company incurred a total of $2.3 million in underwriting fees in connection with the Second Credit Agreement, which are being amortized over the life of the Second Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Second Credit Agreement bear interest at either base rate plus between 0.25% to 1.5% or LIBOR plus between 1.25% to 2.5%, based on the Company’s leverage ratio calculated on a quarterly basis. The base rate is described in the Second Credit Agreement as the highest of (i) the Federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the prime rate quoted by The Wall Street Journal, and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. We pay a commitment fee between 0.15% to 0.4% based on the Company's leverage ratio for the unutilized portion of this facility. Interest and commitment fees are payable at least quarterly and the outstanding principal balance is due at the maturity date. The Second Credit Agreement is secured by a first priority lien on all tangible and intangible assets and stock issued by the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to specified exceptions, and 65% of the voting equity interests in its first-tier foreign subsidiaries.

On December 15, 2022, the Company entered into an Incremental Assumption Agreement No. 1 and Amendment No. 2 to the Second Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) to utilize a portion of the accordion feature, thus increasing the commitment from $400.0 million to $500.0 million, and concurrently reduced the available incremental accordion by a corresponding amount (the term "Revolving Credit Facility" as used throughout this document refers to the First Credit Agreement, the Second Credit Agreement and the Second Amendment, as applicable). The Second Amendment also replaced the LIBOR Rate with individualized metrics based on the specific denomination of borrowings, including a metric based on Term SOFR (as defined in the Second Credit Agreement) for borrowings denominated in U.S. Dollars. The Company incurred a total of $0.1 million in underwriting fees in connection with the Second Amendment, which are being amortized over the remaining term of the Second Credit Agreement.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2023, we borrowed $72.3 million and repaid $172.3 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, we had $153.0 million and $253.0 million, respectively, of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, which resulted in borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility of $347.0 million and $247.0 million, respectively. The financial covenants contained in the Second Credit Agreement require the maintenance of a maximum leverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00, subject to a temporary increase to 3.75 to 1.00 for 18 months following the consummation of permitted acquisitions with consideration in excess of certain threshold amounts set forth in the Second Credit Agreement. The Second Credit Agreement also requires the maintenance of a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.00, the calculations and terms of which are defined in the Second Credit Agreement. Covenant compliance is tested quarterly, and we were in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2023.

Interest payments on the first $100.0 million borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility are hedged under an interest rate swap agreement as described in Note 9.

13

Whitmore Term Loan

Prior to January 20, 2023, Whitmore maintained a secured term loan (the "Whitmore Term Loan") related to a warehouse and corporate office building and the remodel of an existing manufacturing and research and development facility.  The Whitmore Term Loan required payments of $0.1 million each quarter.  Borrowings under this term loan bore interest at a rate of one month LIBOR plus 2.0%.  On January 20, 2023, the Whitmore Term Loan was paid off using borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility discussed above. As such, as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, there were no outstanding principal amounts under the Whitmore Term Loan.

Interest payments under the Whitmore Term Loan were hedged under an interest rate swap agreement until January 9, 2023, when the interest rate swap agreement was terminated.

8. LEASES

We have operating leases for manufacturing facilities, offices, warehouses, vehicles and certain equipment. Our leases have remaining lease terms of 1 year to 24 years, some of which include escalation clauses and/or options to extend or terminate the leases. We do not currently have any financing lease arrangements.

9. DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGE ACCOUNTING

We enter into interest rate swap agreements to hedge exposure to floating interest rates on certain portions of our debt. All interest rate swaps are highly effective.

Prior to January 9, 2023, we had an interest rate swap to hedge our exposure to variability in cash flows from interest payments on our Whitmore Term Loan. On January 9, 2023, this interest rate swap was terminated when the loan was paid off and resulted in a cash receipt of $0.2 million.

On February 7, 2023, we entered into an interest rate swap to hedge our exposure to variability in cash flows from interest payments on the first $100.0 million borrowing under our Revolving Credit Facility. This interest rate swap fixes the one-month SOFR rate at 3.85% for the first $100.0 million borrowing under our Revolving Credit Facility and will expire May 18, 2026. As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, we had $100.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively, of notional amount in outstanding designated interest rate swaps with third parties.

The fair value of the interest rate swap designated as a hedging instrument is summarized below (in thousands):

	December 31, 2023		March 31, 2023
Current derivative asset	$	942	$	877
Non-current derivative liabilities	574		1,021

The impact of changes in fair value of the interest rate swap is included in Note 15.

Current and non-current derivative assets are reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets in prepaid expenses and other current assets and other assets, respectively. Current and non-current derivative liabilities are reported in our condensed consolidated balance sheets in accrued and other current liabilities and other liabilities, respectively.

11. SHAREHOLDERS' EQUITY

Share Repurchase Program

On November 7, 2018, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a program to repurchase up to $75.0 million of our common stock over a two-year period. On October 30, 2020, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a new program to repurchase up to $100.0 million of our common stock, which replaced the prior announced $75.0 million program. On December 16, 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a new $100.0 million share repurchase program, which replaced the previously announced $100.0 million program. Under the current repurchase program, shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Repurchases will be made at our discretion, based on ongoing assessments of the capital needs of the business, the market price of our common stock and general market conditions. Our Board of Directors has established an expiration date of December 31, 2024, for completion of the current repurchase program; however, the program may be limited or terminated at any time at our discretion without notice.

Under the current $100.0 million repurchase program, a total of 25,914 were repurchased for the three months ended December 31, 2023 for $4.7 million. Under the current $100.0 million repurchase program, a total of 32,345 were repurchased for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 for $5.8 million. Under the prior $100.0 million repurchase program, 336,347 shares were repurchased during the nine months ended December 31, 2022 for $35.7 million.

Dividends

We commenced a quarterly dividend program in April 2019. On April 14, 2022, we announced a quarterly dividend increase to $0.17 per share. On April 14, 2023, we announced another quarterly dividend increase to $0.19 per share. Total dividends of $2.9 million and $2.6 million were paid during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively. Total dividends of $8.9 million and $7.9 million were paid during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

16

On January 12, 2024, we announced a quarterly dividend of $0.19 per share payable on February 9, 2024 to shareholders of record as of January 26, 2024. Any future dividends at the existing $0.19 per share quarterly rate or otherwise will be reviewed individually and declared by our Board of Directors in its discretion.

12. FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value of the interest rate swap contract (as discussed in Note 9) is determined using Level 2 inputs.  The carrying value of our debt (discussed in Note 7) approximates fair value as it bears interest at variable rates.  The carrying amounts of other financial instruments (i.e., cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable) approximate their fair values as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023 due to their short-term nature.

The redeemable noncontrolling interest is recorded at the higher of the redemption value or carrying value each reporting period. The redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, which requires management judgment with respect to future revenue, operating margins, growth rates and discount rates and is classified as Level III under the fair value hierarchy. The redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest is discussed in Note 3.

13. CONTINGENCIES

From time to time, we are involved in various claims and legal actions that arise in the ordinary course of business.  There are no matters pending, whether individually or in the aggregate, that we currently believe have a reasonable possibility of having a material impact to our business, consolidated financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

14. INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, we earned $16.4 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $7.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 43.2%. For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, we earned $98.5 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $28.0 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 28.4%. The provision for income taxes differed from the statutory rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 primarily due to the tax impact on the release of the indemnification assets related to the T.A. Industries, Inc. ("TRUaire") and Falcon acquisitions, the release of related uncertain tax positions ("UTP"), the impact of US federal provision to return adjustments, state income tax (net of federal benefit), executive compensation limitations, and the inclusions related to foreign operations.

In connection with the TRUaire acquisition that closed in December 2020, the Company recognized a UTP of $17.3 million related to pre-acquisition tax periods. In addition, in accordance with the tax indemnification included in the TRUaire acquisition agreement, the seller provided a contractual indemnification to the Company for up to $12.5 million related to UTPs taken in pre-acquisition years and we recognized a tax indemnification asset of $12.5 million. This tax indemnification asset will either be settled or expire by December 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, as a result of the audit closure of a pre-acquisition tax period for TRUaire, $5.0 million of the tax indemnification asset was released along with the relevant UTP of $5.3 million. During the three months ended December 31, 2022, TRUaire's Vietnam entity concluded its audit for the tax periods from January 1, 2019 to March 31, 2022 and received an audit closing letter from the tax authority. As a result, $1.5 million of the UTP accrual (including penalties and interests accrued post-acquisition) was released and recorded as an income tax benefit for the three months ended December 31, 2022. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the remaining $7.5 million tax indemnification asset expired and was recognized as non-cash other expense on the statement of income, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2023, the UTP accrual related to TRUaire's pre-acquisition tax periods was $14.3 million and is expected to be released in the future as the statutes on the open tax years expire.

17

In connection with the Falcon acquisition that closed in October 2022, the Company recognized a UTP of $3.0 million related to pre-acquisition tax periods. In addition, in accordance with the tax indemnification included in the Falcon acquisition agreement, the sellers provided a contractual indemnification to the Company for up to $4.5 million related to UTPs taken in pre-acquisition years, and we recognized an initial tax indemnification asset of $3.0 million through purchase accounting, which will increase as additional interest and penalties on UTPs are accrued. This tax indemnification asset will either be settled or expire upon the closure of the tax statutes for the pre-acquisition periods. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, as a result of the statute expiration of the 2019 federal tax return, $1.0 million UTP was released and the related $1.0 million tax indemnification asset expired concurrently and was recognized as non-cash other expense on the statement of income, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2023, the UTP reserve and offsetting indemnification asset related to Falcon's pre-acquisition period were $2.4 million. The Falcon UTP reserves and offsetting indemnification asset will either be settled or expire upon the closure of the tax statutes for the pre-acquisition period.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, we earned $18.2 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $2.7 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 14.7%. For the nine months ended December 31, 2022, we earned $89.7 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $20.2 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 22.6%. The provision for income taxes differed from the statutory rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022 primarily due to a net decrease in the reserves for UTPs, excess tax deductions related to stock compensation, excess tax deductions related to Foreign-derived intangible income ("FDII") and the impact of US federal provision to return adjustment, partially offset by state income tax, net of federal benefit and executive compensation limitations.

The Company expects $0.8 million of existing reserves for UTPs to either be settled or expire within the next 12 months as the statute of limitations expire. One of our Canadian subsidiaries received proposed assessments resulting from audits by the taxing authority for tax years 2017-2020, and we have included the immaterial impact of the proposed assessments in the income tax expense for the nine months ended December 31, 2023.

Item 2.    Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.

The following discussion and analysis of our operations financial condition and results of operations should be read together with our condensed consolidated financial statements and related notes included in this Quarterly Report, as well as our consolidated financial statements and related notes for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 included in our Annual Report. This discussion and analysis contains forward-looking statements based on current expectations relating to future events and our future performance that involve risks and uncertainties. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” below. Our actual results may differ materially from those anticipated in these forward-looking statements as a result of many factors, including those risk factors set forth in our Annual Report and in this Quarterly Report.

Overview

CSW Industrials, Inc. (“CSWI,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is a diversified industrial growth company with a strategic focus on providing niche, value-added products in the end markets we serve. We operate in three business segments: Contractor Solutions, Specialized Reliability Solutions and Engineered Building Solutions. Our products include mechanical products for heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (“HVAC/R”), plumbing products, grilles, registers and diffusers (“GRD”), building safety solutions and high-performance specialty lubricants and sealants. End markets that we serve include HVAC/R, architecturally-specified building products, plumbing, general industrial, energy, rail transportation and mining. Our manufacturing operations are concentrated in the United States (“U.S.”), Vietnam and Canada, and we have distribution operations in the U.S., Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). Our products are sold directly to end users or through designated channels in over 100 countries around the world, primarily including the U.S., Canada, the U.K. and Australia.

Drawing on our innovative and proven technologies, we seek to deliver solutions primarily to contractors that place a premium on superior performance and reliability. We believe our brands are well-known in the specific end markets we serve and have a reputation for high quality. The reputation of our product portfolio is built on more than 100 well-respected brand names, such as AC Guard®, Air Sentry®, Balco®, Cover GuardTM, Deacon®, FalconTM, Greco®, Jet-Lube®, Kopr-Kote®, Leak Freeze®, Metacaulk®, No. 5®, OilSafe®, RectorSeal®, Safe-T-Switch®, Shoemaker Manufacturing®, Smoke Guard®, TRUaire® and Whitmore®. These products are distributed through an extensive wholesale distribution network serving the HVAC/R, architecturally-specified buildings products, plumbing, general industrial, energy, rail transportation and mining end markets. Our desire to develop solutions for our contractors, combined with the differentiated nature of our niche product offerings, drives loyalty to our brands. We rely on both organic growth and inorganic growth through acquisitions to provide an increasingly broad portfolio of performance optimizing solutions that meet our customers’ ever-changing needs. We have a successful record of making attractive and synergistic acquisitions that support expansion of our broad portfolio of solutions, and we remain focused on identifying additional acquisition opportunities in our core end markets.

We continue to assess and proactively manage the impacts of COVID-19 on all aspects of our business and geographies, including with respect to our employees, customers, communities and supply chain. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the COVID-19 pandemic had no direct or indirect material impact on our consolidated operating results. While the Federal COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Declaration expired on May 11, 2023, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.

We continue to monitor the Russian invasion of Ukraine and its global impact. We have no operations, employees or assets in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine, nor do we source goods or services of any material amount from those countries, whether directly or indirectly. Since shortly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022, we have had no commercial activities including sales in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine. While the conflict continues to evolve and the outcome remains highly uncertain, we do not currently believe the Russia-Ukraine conflict will have a material impact on our business and results of operations. However, if the Russia-Ukraine conflict continues or worsens, leading to greater global economic or political disruptions and uncertainty, our business and results of operations could be materially impacted as a result.

We are monitoring the Israel and the Gaza Strip conflict and its global impact. While the conflict continues to evolve and the outcome remains uncertain, we do not currently believe the conflict will have a material impact on our business and results of operations.

Our Outlook

We expect to maintain a strong balance sheet in fiscal year 2024, which provides us with access to capital through our cash on hand, internally-generated cash flow and availability under our Revolving Credit Facility. Our capital allocation strategy continues to guide our investing decisions, with a priority to direct capital to the highest risk adjusted return opportunities, within the categories of organic growth, strategic acquisitions and the return of cash to shareholders through our share repurchase and dividend programs. With the strength of our financial position, we will continue to invest in financially and strategically attractive expanded product offerings, key elements of our long-term strategy of targeting long-term profitable growth. We will continue to invest our capital in maintaining our facilities and in continuous improvement initiatives. We recognize the importance of, and remain committed to, continuing to drive organic growth, as well as investing additional capital in opportunities with attractive risk-adjusted returns, driving increased penetration in the end markets we serve. We remain disciplined in our approach to acquisitions, particularly as it relates to our assessment of valuation, prospective synergies, diligence, cultural fit and ease of integration, especially in light of economic conditions.

RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following discussion provides an analysis of our condensed consolidated results of operations and results for each of our segments.

All acquisitions are described in Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report. Falcon Stainless, Inc. ("Falcon") activity has been included in our results within our Contractor Solutions segment since the October 4, 2022 acquisition date. Cover Guard, Inc. (“CG”) and AC Guard, Inc. ("ACG") activities have been included in our results within our Contractor Solutions segment since the July 8, 2022 acquisition date.

The increase was primarily a result of the ocean and domestic freight expense reduction and increased net revenue. Gross profit margin of 42.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 increased as compared to 38.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was driven by reduced ocean and domestic freight expenses and pricing actions.

Gross profit for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 increased $24.2 million, or 10.4%, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily a result of pricing actions, the ocean and domestic freight expense reduction, and the acquisitions of CG, ACG and Falcon. Gross profit margin of 44.2% for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 increased as compared to 41.4% for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was driven by pricing actions and reduced ocean and domestic freight expenses as compared to the prior year period.

Operating Expenses

	Three Months Ended December 31,
(Amounts in thousands, except percentages)	2023			2022
Operating expenses	$	46,400		$	42,686
Operating expenses as a percentage of revenues, net	26.5		%	24.9		%

Operating expenses for the three months ended December 31, 2023 increased $3.7 million, or 8.7%, as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to increased expenses related to employee compensation and travel. Operating expense as a percentage of revenues increased to 26.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 as compared to 24.9% for the three months ended December 31, 2022.

Operating expenses for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 increased $8.8 million, or 6.6%, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was primarily due to increased expenses related to employee compensation, travel, insurance and sales commissions driven by revenue growth. Operating expense as a percentage of revenues increased to 24.5% for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 as compared to 23.8% for the nine months ended December 31, 2022.

Operating Income

	Three Months Ended December 31,
(Amounts in thousands, except percentages)	2023			2022
Operating income	$	27,581		$	23,112
Operating margin	15.8		%	13.5		%
	Nine Months Ended December 31,
(Amounts in thousands, except percentages)	2023			2022
Operating income	$	114,780		$	99,302
Operating margin	19.7		%	17.7		%

Operating income for the three months ended December 31, 2023 increased $4.5 million, or 19.3%, as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2022, as a result of the increase in gross profit, partially offset by the increase in operating expenses, as discussed above.

Operating income for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 increased $15.5 million, or 15.6%, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2022, as a result of the increase in gross profit, partially offset by the increase in operating expenses, as discussed above.

Other Income and Expense

Net interest expense of $2.8 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 decreased $1.4 million as compared to the three months ended December 31, 2022. The decrease was due to reduced borrowing under our Revolving Credit Facility as a result of strong operating cash flows generated during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and the benefit from our current $100 million interest rate swap, partially offset by higher interest rates.

Net interest expense of $10.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 increased $1.0 million as compared to the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was due to higher interest rates, partially offset by reduced borrowing under our Revolving Credit Facility as a result of strong operating cash flows generated during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and the benefit from our current $100 million interest rate swap.

Other expense, net increased $7.7 million to net expense of $8.4 million for the three months ended December 31, 2023 as compared with net expense of $0.7 million for the three months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was due to the non-cash $8.5 million release of tax indemnification assets related to the TRUaire and Falcon acquisitions, as discussed in Note 14 to our condensed financial statements included in this Quarterly report, in addition to gains arising from transactions in currencies other than functional currencies.

Other expense, net increased $5.7 million to net expense of $6.2 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 as compared with net expense of $0.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was due to the non-cash $8.5 million release of tax indemnification assets related to the TRUaire and Falcon acquisitions, as discussed in Note 14 to our condensed financial statements included in this Quarterly report, partially offset by losses arising from transactions in currencies other than functional currencies and by a gain of $1.4 million recognized from the sale of a property previously held for investment.

Provision for Income Taxes and Effective Tax Rate

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, we earned $16.4 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $7.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 43.2%. For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, we earned $98.5 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $28.0 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 28.4%. The provision for income taxes differed from the statutory rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 primarily due to the tax impact on the release of the indemnification assets related to the T.A. Industries, Inc. ("TRUaire") and Falcon acquisitions, the release of related uncertain tax positions ("UTP"), the impact of US federal provision to return adjustments, state income tax (net of federal benefit), executive compensation limitations, and the inclusions related to foreign operations.

25

In connection with the TRUaire acquisition that closed in December 2020, the Company recognized a UTP of $17.3 million related to pre-acquisition tax periods. In addition, in accordance with the tax indemnification included in the TRUaire acquisition agreement, the seller provided a contractual indemnification to the Company for up to $12.5 million related to UTPs taken in pre-acquisition years and we recognized a tax indemnification asset of $12.5 million. This tax indemnification asset will either be settled or expire by December 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, as a result of the audit closure of a pre-acquisition tax period for TRUaire, $5.0 million of the tax indemnification asset was released along with the relevant UTP of $5.3 million. During the three months ended December 31, 2022, TRUaire's Vietnam entity concluded its audit for the tax periods from January 1, 2019 to March 31, 2022 and received an audit closing letter from the tax authority. As a result, $1.5 million of the UTP accrual (including penalties and interests accrued post-acquisition) was released and recorded as an income tax benefit for the three months ended December 31, 2022. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the remaining $7.5 million tax indemnification asset expired and was recognized as non-cash other expense on the statement of income, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2023, the UTP accrual related to TRUaire's pre-acquisition tax periods was $14.3 million and is expected to be released in the future as the statutes on the open tax years expire.

In connection with the Falcon acquisition that closed in October 2022, the Company recognized a UTP of $3.0 million related to pre-acquisition tax periods. In addition, in accordance with the tax indemnification included in the Falcon acquisition agreement, the sellers provided a contractual indemnification to the Company for up to $4.5 million related to UTPs taken in pre-acquisition years, and we recognized an initial tax indemnification asset of $3.0 million through purchase accounting, which will increase as additional interest and penalties on UTPs are accrued. This tax indemnification asset will either be settled or expire upon the closure of the tax statutes for the pre-acquisition periods. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, as a result of the statute expiration of the 2019 federal tax return, $1.0 million UTP was released and the related $1.0 million tax indemnification asset expired concurrently and was recognized as non-cash other expense on the statement of income, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2023, the UTP reserve and offsetting indemnification asset related to Falcon's pre-acquisition period were $2.4 million. The Falcon UTP reserves and offsetting indemnification asset will either be settled or expire upon the closure of the tax statutes.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, we earned $18.2 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $2.7 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 14.7%. For the nine months ended December 31, 2022, we earned $89.7 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $20.2 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 22.6%. The provision for income taxes differed from the statutory rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022 primarily due to a net decrease in the reserves for uncertain tax positions ("UTP"), excess tax deductions related to stock compensation, excess tax deductions related to Foreign-derived intangible income ("FDII") and the impact of US federal provision to return adjustment, partially offset by state income tax, net of federal benefit and executive compensation limitations.

The Company expects $0.8 million of existing reserves for UTPs to either be settled or expire within the next 12 months as the statute of limitations expire. One of our Canadian subsidiaries received proposed assessments resulting from audits by the taxing authority for tax years 2017-2020, and we have included the immaterial impact of the proposed assessments in the income tax expense for the nine months ended December 31, 2023.

Business Segments

We conduct our operations through three business segments based on how we manage the business. We evaluate segment performance and allocate resources based on each segment's operating income. The key operating results for our three segments are discussed below.

Contractor Solutions Segment Results

The Contractor Solutions segment manufactures efficiency and performance enhancing products predominantly for residential and commercial HVAC/R and plumbing applications, which are designed primarily for professional end-use customers.

	Three Months Ended December 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2023			2022
Revenues, net	$	115,412		$	111,906
Operating income	25,751			21,829
Operating margin	22.3		%	19.5		%
	Nine Months Ended December 31,
(Amounts in thousands)	2023			2022
Revenues, net	$	395,268		$	379,832
Operating income	104,443			90,416
Operating margin	26.4		%	23.8		%

Net revenues for the three months ended December 31, 2023 increased $3.5 million, or 3.1%, as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2022. This increase was due entirely to organic revenue growth, resulting primarily from a slight increase in unit volumes. Net revenue increased in all end markets served.

Net revenues for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 increased $15.4 million, or 4.1%, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2022. Inorganic revenue increased $7.5 million, or 2.0%, due the acquisitions of CG, ACG and Falcon. Excluding the impact of acquisitions, organic revenue increased $7.9 million, or 2.1%, primarily as a result of pricing actions, partially offset by a slight decrease in unit volumes. Net revenue increased in all end markets served.

Operating income for the three months ended December 31, 2023 increased $3.9 million, or 18.0%, as compared with the three months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was driven by a reduction in ocean and domestic freight expenses and increased net revenue, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses. Operating margin of 22.3% for the three months ended December 31, 2023 increased as compared to 19.5% for the three months ended December 31, 2022. This increase was due to gross margin improvement driven primarily by the aforementioned reduction in ocean and domestic freight expenses.

Operating income for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 increased $14.0 million, or 15.5%, as compared with the nine months ended December 31, 2022. The increase was due to the increased net revenue, a reduction in ocean and domestic freight expenses, and the inclusion of the CG, ACG and Falcon acquisitions, partially offset by an increase in operating expenses. Operating margin of 26.4% for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 increased as compared to 23.8% for the nine months ended December 31, 2022. This increase was due to gross margin improvement driven primarily by pricing actions and the aforementioned reduction in ocean and domestic freight expenses.

LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES

General

Existing cash on hand, cash generated by operations and borrowings available under our Revolving Credit Facility ("Revolver Borrowings") are our primary sources of short-term liquidity. Our ability to consistently generate strong cash flow from our operations is one of our most significant financial strengths; it enables us to invest in our people and our brands, make capital investments and strategic acquisitions, provide a cash dividend program, and from time-to-time, repurchase shares of our common stock. We use our Revolver Borrowings to support our working capital requirements, capital expenditures and strategic acquisitions. We seek to maintain adequate liquidity to meet working capital requirements, fund capital expenditures, and make scheduled interest payments on debt. Absent deterioration of market conditions, we believe that cash flows from operating and financing activities, primarily in the form of Revolver Borrowings, will provide adequate resources to satisfy our working capital, scheduled principal and interest payments on debt, anticipated dividend payments, periodic share repurchases, and anticipated capital expenditure requirements for both our short-term and long-term capital needs.

•Working capital provided cash for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 due to lower accounts receivable ($17.8 million), higher accounts payable and other current liabilities ($9.6 million) and lower inventories ($7.8 million), partially offset by higher prepaid expenses and other current assets ($6.7 million).

•Working capital used cash for the nine months ended December 31, 2022 due to higher inventories ($28.3 million), higher prepaid expenses and other current assets ($8.3 million) and lower accounts payable and other current liabilities ($7.3 million), partially offset by lower accounts receivable ($22.0 million).

•During the nine months ended December 31, 2022, we acquired Falcon for an aggregate purchase price of $37.1 million, including $34.6 million in cash consideration at closing, as discussed in Note 2 to our condensed financial statements included in this Quarterly report.

30

Cash flows used in financing activities during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 were $119.5 million and $21.6 million, respectively. Cash outflows resulted from:

•Net (repayments) borrowings on our Revolving Credit Facility and term loan (as discussed in Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report) of $(100.0) million and $23.8 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

•Dividend payments of $8.9 million and $7.9 million during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

Acquisitions and Dispositions

We regularly evaluate acquisition opportunities of various sizes.  The cost and terms of any financing to be raised in conjunction with any acquisition, including our ability to raise capital, is a critical consideration in any such evaluation. Note 2 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report contains a discussion of the recent acquisitions.

Financing

Credit Facilities

See Note 7 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a discussion of our indebtedness.  We were in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2023. See Note 9 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report for a discussion of our interest rate swaps.

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES

Management’s discussion and analysis of financial condition and results of operations are based on our condensed consolidated financial statements and related footnotes contained within this Quarterly Report. Our critical accounting policies used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements were discussed in “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” included in our Annual Report. No significant changes to these policies, as described in our Annual Report, have occurred in the nine months ended December 31, 2023.

The process of preparing condensed consolidated financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires the use of estimates and assumptions to determine certain of the assets, liabilities, revenues and expenses.  These estimates and assumptions are based upon what we believe is the best information available at the time of the estimates or assumptions.  The estimates and assumptions could change materially as conditions within and beyond our control change.  Accordingly, actual results could differ materially from those estimates.

Based on an assessment of our accounting policies and the underlying judgments and uncertainties affecting the application of those policies, we believe that our condensed consolidated financial statements provide a meaningful and fair perspective of our consolidated financial condition and results of operations.  This is not to suggest that other general risk factors, such as changes in worldwide demand, changes in material costs, performance of acquired businesses and others, could not adversely impact our consolidated financial condition, results of operations and cash flows in future periods. See “Cautionary Note Regarding Forward-Looking Statements” below.

31

ACCOUNTING DEVELOPMENTS

We have presented the information about pronouncements not yet implemented in Note 1 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report, if any.

CAUTIONARY NOTE REGARDING FORWARD-LOOKING STATEMENTS

Certain statements appearing in this Quarterly Report constitute “forward-looking statements” within the meaning of the Private Securities Litigation Reform Act of 1995. Forward-looking statements include expected restructuring charges and the results of the restructuring, financial projections, statements of plans and objectives for future operations, statements of future economic performance, and statements of assumptions relating thereto. In some cases, forward-looking statements can be identified by the use of terminology such as “may,” “expects,” “plans,” “anticipates,” “estimates,” “believes,” “potential,” “projects,” “forecasts,” “intends,” or the negative thereof or other comparable terminology. Forward-looking statements may include, but are not limited to, statements that relate to, or statements that are subject to risks, contingencies or uncertainties that relate to:

•our business strategy;

•changes in local political, economic, social and labor conditions;

•potential disruptions from wars and military conflicts, including Russia's invasion of Ukraine;

•future levels of revenues, operating margins, income from operations, net income or earnings per share;

•the ability to respond to anticipated inflationary pressure, including reductions on consumer discretionary income and our ability to pass along rising costs through increased selling prices;

•anticipated levels of demand for our products and services;

•the actual impact to supply, production levels and costs from global supply chain logistics and transportation challenges

•short and long-term effects of the COVID-19 pandemic;

•future levels of research and development, capital, environmental or maintenance expenditures;

•our beliefs regarding the timing and effects on our business of health and safety, tax, environmental or other legislation, rules and regulations;

•the success or timing of completion of ongoing or anticipated capital, restructuring or maintenance projects;

•expectations regarding the acquisition or divestiture of assets and businesses;

•our ability to obtain appropriate insurance and indemnities;

•the potential effects of judicial or other proceedings, including tax audits, on our business, financial condition, results of operations and cash flows;

•the anticipated effects of actions of third parties such as competitors, or federal, foreign, state or local regulatory authorities, or plaintiffs in litigation;

•the expected impact of accounting pronouncements; and

•other factors listed under "Risk Factors" in our Annual Report and other filings with the SEC.

Forward-looking statements involve risks, uncertainties and assumptions. Actual results may differ materially from those expressed in these forward-looking statements for a number of important factors, including those listed under “Risk Factors” in our Annual Report and in this Quarterly Report. You should not put undue reliance on any forwarding-looking statements in this Quarterly Report. We assume no obligation to update or revise these forward-looking statements, except as required by law.

Item 3.    Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk.

We are exposed to market risk from changes in interest rates and foreign currency exchange rates, which may adversely affect our consolidated financial position and results of operations.  We seek to minimize the risk associated with changes in interest rates through regular operating and financing activities, and when deemed appropriate, through the use of an interest rate swap.  It is our policy to enter into interest rate swaps only to the extent considered necessary to meet our risk management objectives.  We do not purchase, hold or sell derivative financial instruments for trading or speculative purposes.

Variable Rate Indebtedness

We are subject to interest rate risk on our variable rate indebtedness. Fluctuations in interest rates have a direct effect on interest expense associated with our outstanding indebtedness.  We manage, or hedge, interest rate risks related to our borrowings by means of interest rate swap agreements. As discussed in Note 9, the Whitmore Term Loan interest rate swap

32

was terminated on January 9, 2023. On February 7, 2023, we entered into an interest rate swap to hedge our exposure to variability in cash flows from interest payments on the first $100.0 million borrowing under our Revolving Credit Facility (defined in Note 7). At December 31, 2023, we had $53.0 million in unhedged variable rate indebtedness with an average interest rate of 6.7%. Starting in April 2023, each quarter point change in interest rates would result in a change of approximately $0.1 million in our interest expense on an annual basis, inclusive of the interest rate swap.

We may also be exposed to credit risk in derivative contracts we may use.  Credit risk is the failure of the counterparty to perform under the terms of the derivative contract.  If the fair value of a derivative contract is positive, the counterparty will owe us, which creates credit risk for us.  If the fair value of a derivative contract is negative, we will owe the counterparty and, therefore, do not have credit risk.  We have sought to minimize the credit risk in derivative instruments by entering into transactions with high-quality counterparties.

Foreign Currency Exchange Rate Risk

We conduct an immaterial portion of our operations outside of the U.S. in currencies other than the U.S. dollar. Our non-U.S. operations are conducted primarily in their local currencies, which are also their functional currencies, and include the Australian dollar, British pound, Canadian dollar and Vietnamese dong.  Foreign currency exposures arise from translation of foreign-denominated assets and liabilities into U.S. dollars and from transactions denominated in a currency other than a non-U.S. operation’s functional currency. We recognized foreign currency transaction net gain of $0.2 million and $0.5 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which are included in other expense, net on our condensed consolidated statements of income. We realized a net loss associated with foreign currency translation of $0.6 million and $4.1 million for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively, which are included in accumulated other comprehensive income (loss).

Based on a sensitivity analysis at December 31, 2023, a 10% change in the foreign currency exchange rates for the nine months ended December 31, 2023 would have impacted our net earnings by a negligible amount.  This calculation assumes that all currencies change in the same direction and proportion relative to the U.S. dollar and that there are no indirect effects, such as changes in non-U.S. dollar sales volumes or prices.

Item 4.    Controls and Procedures.

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company's management, with the participation of the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer, has evaluated the effectiveness of the Company's disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, (the "Exchange Act")) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report. Based on such evaluation, the Company's Chief Executive Officer and Executive Vice President and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that, as of the end of such period, the Company's disclosure controls and procedures were effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

There have been no changes in our internal control over financial reporting (as defined in Rules 13a-15(f) and 15d-15(f) of the Exchange Act) during the quarter ended December 31, 2023 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.

33

PART II — OTHER INFORMATION

Item 1. Legal Proceedings.

The disclosure contained in Note 13 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report is incorporated by reference into this “Item 1. Legal Proceedings.” In addition to the foregoing, we and our subsidiaries are from time to time named defendants in certain lawsuits incidental to our business, including product liability claims that are insured, subject to applicable deductibles, and are involved from time to time as parties to governmental proceedings, all arising in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of lawsuits or other proceedings involving us and our subsidiaries cannot be predicted with certainty, and the amount of any liability that could arise with respect to such lawsuits or other proceedings cannot be predicted accurately, management does not currently expect the amount of any liability that could arise with respect to these matters, either individually or in the aggregate, to have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 1A. Risk Factors.

There are numerous factors that affect our business and results of operations, many of which are beyond our control. In addition to other information set forth in this Quarterly Report, careful consideration should be given to “Item 1A. Risk Factors” in Part I and “Item 7. Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in Part II of our Annual Report, which contain descriptions of significant factors that may cause the actual results of operations in future periods to differ materially from those currently expected or desired.

There have been no material changes in the risk factors discussed in our Annual Report and subsequent SEC filings. The risks described in this Quarterly Report, our Annual Report and in our other SEC filings or press releases from time to time are not the only risks we face. Additional risks and uncertainties are currently deemed immaterial based on management’s assessment of currently available information, which remains subject to change; however, new risks that are currently unknown to us may arise in the future that could materially adversely affect our business, financial condition, results of operations or cash flows.

Item 2. Unregistered Sales of Equity Securities and Use of Proceeds.

Note 11 to our condensed consolidated financial statements included in “Item 1. Financial Statements” of this Quarterly Report includes a discussion of our share repurchase programs. The following table represents the number of shares repurchased during the quarter ended December 31, 2023.

Period	Total Number of Shares Purchased		Average Price Paid per Share		Total Number of Shares Purchased as Part of Publicly Announced Program	Maximum Approximate Dollar Value That May Yet Be Purchased Under the Program (a)

December 1 - 31	8,257	(a)	195.12		8,113	94.2
Total	37,853	(b)			25,914

(a) On December 16, 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a new program to repurchase up to $100.0 million of our common stock, which replaced a previously announced $100.0 million program. Under the current program, shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Our Board of Directors has established an expiration date of December 31, 2024, for completion of the current repurchase program; however, the program may be limited or terminated at any time at our discretion without notice. 32,345 shares have been repurchased under the current program.

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

ORGANIZATION AND OPERATIONS AND SUMMARY OF ACCOUNTING POLICIES

CSW Industrials, Inc. (“CSWI,” “we,” “our” or “us”) is a diversified industrial growth company with a strategic focus on providing niche, value-added products in the end markets we serve. We operate in three business segments: Contractor Solutions, Specialized Reliability Solutions and Engineered Building Solutions. Our products include mechanical products for heating, ventilation, air conditioning and refrigeration (“HVAC/R”), plumbing products, grilles, registers and diffusers (“GRD”), building safety solutions and high-performance specialty lubricants and sealants. End markets that we serve include HVAC/R, architecturally-specified building products, plumbing, general industrial, energy, rail transportation and mining. Our manufacturing operations are concentrated in the United States (“U.S.”), Vietnam and Canada, and we have distribution operations in the U.S., Australia, Canada and the United Kingdom (“U.K.”). Our products are sold directly to end users or through designated channels in over 100 countries around the world, primarily including the U.S., Canada, the U.K. and Australia.

Drawing on our innovative and proven technologies, we seek to deliver solutions primarily to contractors that place a premium on superior performance and reliability. We believe our brands are well-known in the specific end markets we serve and have a reputation for high quality. The reputation of our product portfolio is built on more than 100 well-respected brand names, such as AC Guard®, Air Sentry®, Balco®, Cover GuardTM, Deacon®, FalconTM, Greco®, Jet-Lube®, Kopr-Kote®, Leak Freeze®, Metacaulk®, No. 5®, OilSafe®, RectorSeal®, Safe-T-Switch®, Shoemaker Manufacturing®, Smoke Guard®, TRUaire® and Whitmore®. These products are distributed through an extensive wholesale distribution network serving the HVAC/R, architecturally-specified buildings products, plumbing, general industrial, energy, rail transportation and mining end markets. Our desire to develop solutions for our contractors, combined with the differentiated nature of our niche product offerings, drives loyalty to our brands. We rely on both organic growth and inorganic growth through acquisitions to provide an increasingly broad portfolio of performance optimizing solutions that meet our customers’ ever-changing needs. We have a successful record of making attractive and synergistic acquisitions that support expansion of our broad portfolio of solutions, and we remain focused on identifying additional acquisition opportunities in our core end markets.

We continue to assess and proactively manage the impacts of COVID-19 on all aspects of our business and geographies, including with respect to our employees, customers, communities and supply chain. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the COVID-19 pandemic had no direct or indirect material impact on our consolidated operating results. While the Federal COVID-19 Public Health Emergency Declaration expired on May 11, 2023, the extent to which the COVID-19 pandemic may impact our business, results of operations, and financial condition will depend on future developments, which are uncertain and cannot be predicted.

We continue to monitor the Russian invasion of Ukraine and its global impact. We have no operations, employees or assets in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine, nor do we source goods or services of any material amount from those countries, whether directly or indirectly. Since shortly after the Russian invasion of Ukraine began in February 2022, we have had no commercial activities including sales in Russia, Belarus or Ukraine. While the conflict continues to evolve and the outcome remains highly uncertain, we do not currently believe the Russia-Ukraine conflict will have a material impact on our business and results of operations. However, if the Russia-Ukraine conflict continues or worsens, leading to greater global economic or political disruptions and uncertainty, our business and results of operations could be materially impacted as a result.

We are monitoring the Israel and the Gaza Strip conflict and its global impact. While the conflict continues to evolve and the outcome remains uncertain, we do not currently believe the Gaza Strip conflict will have a material impact on our business and results of operations.

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2023 (“Quarterly Report”), include all revenues, costs, assets and liabilities directly attributable to CSWI and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements are for us and our consolidated subsidiaries, each of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary, except our 50% investment in a variable interest entity ("VIE") for which we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary and therefore have consolidated into our financial statements. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of CSWI’s financial position as of December 31, 2023, and the results of operations for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.

The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in CSWI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”).

Accounting Policies

We have consistently applied the accounting policies described in our Annual Report in preparing these condensed consolidated financial statements.  

Accounting Developments

Pronouncements not yet implemented

In November 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-07, Segment Reporting (Topic 280): Improvements to Reportable Segment Disclosures, which provides updates to qualitative and quantitative reportable segment disclosure requirements, including enhanced disclosures about significant segment expenses and increased interim disclosure requirements, among others. ASU 2023-07 is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2023, and interim periods within fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2024. Early adoption is permitted, and the amendments should be applied retrospectively. This ASU will be effective for our Form 10-K for fiscal 2025 and our Form 10-Q for the first quarter of fiscal 2026. We are currently evaluating the impact this ASU may have on our financial statement disclosures.

In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvements to Income Tax Disclosures, which provides qualitative and quantitative updates to the rate reconciliation and income taxes paid disclosures, among others, in order to enhance the transparency of income tax disclosures, including consistent categories and greater disaggregation of information in the rate reconciliation and disaggregation by jurisdiction of income taxes paid.

Business Combination and Asset Acquisition [Abstract]

ACQUISITIONS

ACQUISITIONS

Cover Guard, Inc. and AC Guard, Inc.

On July 8, 2022, we acquired the assets of Cover Guard, Inc. (“CG”) and AC Guard, Inc. ("ACG"), based in Orlando, Florida, for an aggregate purchase price of $18.4 million, comprised of cash consideration of $18.0 million and additional contingent considerations initially measured at $0.4 million based on CG and ACG meeting defined financial targets over a period of 5 years. In conjunction with the acquisition, we agreed to pay an additional $3.7 million, comprised of cash consideration of $1.5 million and 5-year annuity payments (value of $2.2 million) to a third party to secure the related intellectual property. The total cash consideration at closing of $19.5 million was funded with cash on hand and borrowings under our existing Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 7). CG and ACG product lines further expand Contractor Solutions’ offering of leading HVAC/R accessories. Through these differentiated products, our Contractor Solutions segment expects to achieve incremental ductless and ducted HVAC/R market penetration. As of the acquisition date, the estimated fair

value of the contingent consideration was classified as a long-term liability of $0.4 million and was determined using an option pricing model simulation that determines an average projected payment value across numerous iterations.

The CG and ACG acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under FASB Accounting Standards Codification Topic 805 ("Topic 805"). The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary fair value of the identifiable assets acquired was $1.8 million allocated to goodwill, which represents the value expected to be obtained from owning products that are complementary to our existing HVAC/R and plumbing offerings and provide a meaningful value proposition to our end use customers. The allocation of the fair value of the assets acquired included customer lists ($9.8 million), patent ($1.8 million), trademarks ($0.7 million), inventory ($3.1 million), accounts receivable ($0.9 million) and equipment ($0.3 million). Customer lists and patents are being amortized over 15 years and 10 years, respectively, while trademarks and goodwill are not being amortized.  The Company completed the analysis of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the related allocation during the three months ended September 30, 2023. Goodwill and all intangible assets, including customer lists, trademarks and patent are deductible and amortized over 15 years for income tax purposes. CG and ACG activity has been included in our Contractor Solutions segment since the acquisition date. No pro forma information has been provided due to immateriality.

The additional $3.7 million we agreed to pay a third party was accounted for as an acquisition of intellectual property and is being amortized over 15 years.

Falcon Stainless, Inc.

On October 4, 2022, we acquired 100% of the outstanding equity of Falcon Stainless, Inc. ("Falcon"), based in Temecula, California, for an aggregate purchase price of $37.1 million (including $1.0 million cash acquired), comprising cash consideration of $34.6 million and an additional payment of $2.5 million due one-year from the acquisition date assuming certain business conditions are met. The cash consideration was funded with cash on hand and borrowings under our existing Revolving Credit Facility (as defined in Note 7). Falcon products are well-known among the professional trades for supplying enhanced water flow delivery and customer satisfaction and supplement our Contractor Solutions segment's existing product portfolio.

The Falcon acquisition was accounted for as a business combination under Topic 805. The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary fair value of the identifiable assets acquired was $17.5 million allocated to goodwill, which represents the value expected to be obtained from owning products that are complementary to our existing plumbing offerings and provide a meaningful value proposition to our end use customers. The allocation of the fair value of the assets acquired comprises customer lists ($17.7 million), trademarks ($4.7 million), accounts receivable ($1.4 million), cash ($1.0 million), inventory ($0.7 million), other current asset ($0.1 million) and other assets ($3.0 million), net of current liabilities (0.7 million) and other liabilities ($8.4 million). Customer lists are being amortized over 15 years, while trademarks and goodwill are not being amortized.  The Company completed the analysis of the assets acquired, liabilities assumed and the related allocation during the three months ended December 31, 2023. Goodwill and all intangible assets are not deductible for income tax purposes. Falcon activity has been included in our Contractor Solutions segment since the acquisition date. No pro forma information has been provided due to immateriality.

CONSOLIDATION OF VARIABLE INTEREST ENTITY AND REDEEMABLE NONCONTROLLING INTEREST

Whitmore Joint Venture

On April 1, 2021, Whitmore Manufacturing, LLC (“Whitmore”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of CSWI, completed the formation of the joint venture (the "Whitmore JV") with Pennzoil-Quaker State Company dba SOPUS Products (“Shell”), a wholly-owned subsidiary of Shell Oil Company that comprises Shell’s U.S. lubricants business.

The Whitmore JV is deemed to be a VIE as the equity investors at risk, as a group, lack the characteristics of a controlling financial interest. The major factor that led to the conclusion that the Company is the primary beneficiary of this VIE is that Whitmore has the power to direct the most significant activities due to its ability to direct the manufacturing decisions of the Whitmore JV. Whitmore JV's total net assets are presented below (in thousands):

	December 31, 2023
Cash	$	5,483
Accounts receivable, net	6,133
Inventories, net	3,273
Prepaid expenses and other current assets	290
Property, plant and equipment, net	14,116
Intangible assets, net	5,871
Other assets	222
Total assets	$	35,388
Accounts payable	$	3,524
Accrued and other current liabilities	1,718
Other long-term liabilities	166
Total liabilities	$	5,408

During the nine months ended December 31, 2023, the Whitmore JV generated net income of $1.3 million.

The Whitmore JV's LLC Agreement contains a put option that gives either member the right to sell its 50% equity interest in the Whitmore JV to the other member at a dollar amount equivalent to 90% of the initiating member's equity interest determined based on the fair market value of the Whitmore JV's net assets. This put option can be exercised, at either member's discretion, by providing written notice to the other member during the month of July 2024 and every two years afterwards. This redeemable noncontrolling interest is recorded at the higher of the redemption value or carrying value each reporting period. Changes in redeemable noncontrolling interest for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 were as follows (in thousands):

Balance at March 31, 2023	$	18,464

During the restriction period, the holders of restricted shares are entitled to vote and receive dividends. Unvested restricted shares outstanding as of December 31, 2023 and 2022 included 96,814 and 99,474 shares (at target), respectively, with performance-based vesting provisions, and a vesting range of 0%-200% based on pre-defined performance targets with market conditions.  Performance-based awards accrue dividend equivalents, which are settled upon (and to the extent of) vesting of the underlying award and do not have the right to vote until vested. Performance-based awards are earned upon the achievement of objective performance targets and are payable in common shares.  Compensation expense is calculated based on the fair market value as determined by a Monte Carlo simulation and is recognized over a 36-month cliff vesting period. We granted no awards with performance-based vesting provisions during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. We granted 29,120 and 21,087 awards with performance-based vesting provisions during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022, respectively.

At December 31, 2023, we had unrecognized compensation cost related to unvested restricted shares of $22.3 million, which will be amortized into net income over the remaining weighted average vesting period of approximately 2.3 years. The total fair value of restricted shares granted during the three months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $5.5 million and $5.4 million, respectively. The total fair value of restricted shares granted during the nine months ended December 31, 2023 and 2022 was $12.2 million and $9.4 million, respectively.

Revolving Credit Facility

As discussed in Note 8 to our consolidated financial statements included in our Annual Report, prior to May 2021, we maintained a five-year, $300.0 million revolving credit facility agreement (the "First Credit Agreement"), which was scheduled to mature on September 15, 2022. On May 18, 2021, we entered into a Second Amended and Restated Credit Agreement (the “Second Credit Agreement”), which replaced the First Credit Agreement and initially provided for a $400.0 million revolving credit facility with a $25.0 million sublimit for the issuance of letters of credit and a $10.0 million sublimit for swingline loans, with an additional $150 million accordion feature. The Second Credit Agreement is scheduled to mature on May 18, 2026. The Company incurred a total of $2.3 million in underwriting fees in connection with the Second Credit Agreement, which are being amortized over the life of the Second Credit Agreement. Borrowings under the Second Credit Agreement bear interest at either base rate plus between 0.25% to 1.5% or LIBOR plus between 1.25% to 2.5%, based on the Company’s leverage ratio calculated on a quarterly basis. The base rate is described in the Second Credit Agreement as the highest of (i) the Federal funds effective rate plus 0.50%, (ii) the prime rate quoted by The Wall Street Journal, and (iii) the one-month LIBOR rate plus 1.00%. We pay a commitment fee between 0.15% to 0.4% based on the Company's leverage ratio for the unutilized portion of this facility. Interest and commitment fees are payable at least quarterly and the outstanding principal balance is due at the maturity date. The Second Credit Agreement is secured by a first priority lien on all tangible and intangible assets and stock issued by the Company and its domestic subsidiaries, subject to specified exceptions, and 65% of the voting equity interests in its first-tier foreign subsidiaries.

On December 15, 2022, the Company entered into an Incremental Assumption Agreement No. 1 and Amendment No. 2 to the Second Credit Agreement (the “Second Amendment”) to utilize a portion of the accordion feature, thus increasing the commitment from $400.0 million to $500.0 million, and concurrently reduced the available incremental accordion by a corresponding amount (the term "Revolving Credit Facility" as used throughout this document refers to the First Credit Agreement, the Second Credit Agreement and the Second Amendment, as applicable). The Second Amendment also replaced the LIBOR Rate with individualized metrics based on the specific denomination of borrowings, including a metric based on Term SOFR (as defined in the Second Credit Agreement) for borrowings denominated in U.S. Dollars. The Company incurred a total of $0.1 million in underwriting fees in connection with the Second Amendment, which are being amortized over the remaining term of the Second Credit Agreement.

During the nine months ended December 31, 2023, we borrowed $72.3 million and repaid $172.3 million under the Revolving Credit Facility. As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, we had $153.0 million and $253.0 million, respectively, of outstanding borrowings under the Revolving Credit Facility, which resulted in borrowing capacity under the Revolving Credit Facility of $347.0 million and $247.0 million, respectively. The financial covenants contained in the Second Credit Agreement require the maintenance of a maximum leverage ratio of 3.00 to 1.00, subject to a temporary increase to 3.75 to 1.00 for 18 months following the consummation of permitted acquisitions with consideration in excess of certain threshold amounts set forth in the Second Credit Agreement. The Second Credit Agreement also requires the maintenance of a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio of 1.25 to 1.00, the calculations and terms of which are defined in the Second Credit Agreement. Covenant compliance is tested quarterly, and we were in compliance with all covenants as of December 31, 2023.

Interest payments on the first $100.0 million borrowing under the Revolving Credit Facility are hedged under an interest rate swap agreement as described in Note 9.

Whitmore Term Loan

Prior to January 20, 2023, Whitmore maintained a secured term loan (the "Whitmore Term Loan") related to a warehouse and corporate office building and the remodel of an existing manufacturing and research and development facility.  The Whitmore Term Loan required payments of $0.1 million each quarter.  Borrowings under this term loan bore interest at a rate of one month LIBOR plus 2.0%.  On January 20, 2023, the Whitmore Term Loan was paid off using borrowings under our Revolving Credit Facility discussed above. As such, as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, there were no outstanding principal amounts under the Whitmore Term Loan.

Interest payments under the Whitmore Term Loan were hedged under an interest rate swap agreement until January 9, 2023, when the interest rate swap agreement was terminated.

DERIVATIVE INSTRUMENTS AND HEDGE ACCOUNTING

We enter into interest rate swap agreements to hedge exposure to floating interest rates on certain portions of our debt. All interest rate swaps are highly effective.

Prior to January 9, 2023, we had an interest rate swap to hedge our exposure to variability in cash flows from interest payments on our Whitmore Term Loan. On January 9, 2023, this interest rate swap was terminated when the loan was paid off and resulted in a cash receipt of $0.2 million.

On February 7, 2023, we entered into an interest rate swap to hedge our exposure to variability in cash flows from interest payments on the first $100.0 million borrowing under our Revolving Credit Facility. This interest rate swap fixes the one-month SOFR rate at 3.85% for the first $100.0 million borrowing under our Revolving Credit Facility and will expire May 18, 2026. As of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023, we had $100.0 million and $100.0 million, respectively, of notional amount in outstanding designated interest rate swaps with third parties.

The fair value of the interest rate swap designated as a hedging instrument is summarized below (in thousands):

On December 16, 2022, we announced that our Board of Directors authorized a new $100.0 million share repurchase program, which replaced the previously announced $100.0 million program. Under the current repurchase program, shares may be repurchased from time to time in the open market or in privately negotiated transactions. Repurchases will be made at our discretion, based on ongoing assessments of the capital needs of the business, the market price of our common stock and general market conditions. Our Board of Directors has established an expiration date of December 31, 2024, for completion of the current repurchase program; however, the program may be limited or terminated at any time at our discretion without notice.

Fair Value Disclosures [Abstract]

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

FAIR VALUE MEASUREMENTS

The fair value of the interest rate swap contract (as discussed in Note 9) is determined using Level 2 inputs.  The carrying value of our debt (discussed in Note 7) approximates fair value as it bears interest at variable rates.  The carrying amounts of other financial instruments (i.e., cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, net, accounts payable) approximate their fair values as of December 31, 2023 and March 31, 2023 due to their short-term nature.

The redeemable noncontrolling interest is recorded at the higher of the redemption value or carrying value each reporting period. The redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest is estimated using a discounted cash flow analysis, which requires management judgment with respect to future revenue, operating margins, growth rates and discount rates and is classified as Level III under the fair value hierarchy. The redemption value of the redeemable noncontrolling interest is discussed in Note 3.

INCOME TAXES

Income Tax Disclosure [Abstract]

INCOME TAXES

INCOME TAXES

For the three months ended December 31, 2023, we earned $16.4 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $7.1 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 43.2%. For the nine months ended December 31, 2023, we earned $98.5 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $28.0 million resulting in an effective tax rate of 28.4%. The provision for income taxes differed from the statutory rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2023 primarily due to the tax impact on the release of the indemnification assets related to the T.A. Industries, Inc. ("TRUaire") and Falcon acquisitions, the release of related uncertain tax positions ("UTP"), the impact of US federal provision to return adjustments, state income tax (net of federal benefit), executive compensation limitations, and the inclusions related to foreign operations.

In connection with the TRUaire acquisition that closed in December 2020, the Company recognized a UTP of $17.3 million related to pre-acquisition tax periods. In addition, in accordance with the tax indemnification included in the TRUaire acquisition agreement, the seller provided a contractual indemnification to the Company for up to $12.5 million related to UTPs taken in pre-acquisition years and we recognized a tax indemnification asset of $12.5 million. This tax indemnification asset will either be settled or expire by December 2023. During the three months ended March 31, 2021, as a result of the audit closure of a pre-acquisition tax period for TRUaire, $5.0 million of the tax indemnification asset was released along with the relevant UTP of $5.3 million. During the three months ended December 31, 2022, TRUaire's Vietnam entity concluded its audit for the tax periods from January 1, 2019 to March 31, 2022 and received an audit closing letter from the tax authority. As a result, $1.5 million of the UTP accrual (including penalties and interests accrued post-acquisition) was released and recorded as an income tax benefit for the three months ended December 31, 2022. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, the remaining $7.5 million tax indemnification asset expired and was recognized as non-cash other expense on the statement of income, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2023, the UTP accrual related to TRUaire's pre-acquisition tax periods was $14.3 million and is expected to be released in the future as the statutes on the open tax years expire.

In connection with the Falcon acquisition that closed in October 2022, the Company recognized a UTP of $3.0 million related to pre-acquisition tax periods. In addition, in accordance with the tax indemnification included in the Falcon acquisition agreement, the sellers provided a contractual indemnification to the Company for up to $4.5 million related to UTPs taken in pre-acquisition years, and we recognized an initial tax indemnification asset of $3.0 million through purchase accounting, which will increase as additional interest and penalties on UTPs are accrued. This tax indemnification asset will either be settled or expire upon the closure of the tax statutes for the pre-acquisition periods. During the three months ended December 31, 2023, as a result of the statute expiration of the 2019 federal tax return, $1.0 million UTP was released and the related $1.0 million tax indemnification asset expired concurrently and was recognized as non-cash other expense on the statement of income, which is not deductible for income tax purposes. As of December 31, 2023, the UTP reserve and offsetting indemnification asset related to Falcon's pre-acquisition period were $2.4 million. The Falcon UTP reserves and offsetting indemnification asset will either be settled or expire upon the closure of the tax statutes for the pre-acquisition period.

For the three months ended December 31, 2022, we earned $18.2 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $2.7 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 14.7%. For the nine months ended December 31, 2022, we earned $89.7 million from operations before taxes and provided for income taxes of $20.2 million, resulting in an effective tax rate of 22.6%. The provision for income taxes differed from the statutory rate for the three and nine months ended December 31, 2022 primarily due to a net decrease in the reserves for UTPs, excess tax deductions related to stock compensation, excess tax deductions related to Foreign-derived intangible income ("FDII") and the impact of US federal provision to return adjustment, partially offset by state income tax, net of federal benefit and executive compensation limitations.

The Company expects $0.8 million of existing reserves for UTPs to either be settled or expire within the next 12 months as the statute of limitations expire. One of our Canadian subsidiaries received proposed assessments resulting from audits by the taxing authority for tax years 2017-2020, and we have included the immaterial impact of the proposed assessments in the income tax expense for the nine months ended December 31, 2023.

Basis of Presentation

Basis of Presentation

The condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q for the quarterly period ended December 31, 2023 (“Quarterly Report”), include all revenues, costs, assets and liabilities directly attributable to CSWI and have been prepared in accordance with U.S. generally accepted accounting principles (“GAAP”). The condensed consolidated financial statements are for us and our consolidated subsidiaries, each of which is a wholly-owned subsidiary, except our 50% investment in a variable interest entity ("VIE") for which we have determined that we are the primary beneficiary and therefore have consolidated into our financial statements. All significant intercompany transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.

The condensed consolidated financial statements reflect all adjustments that are, in the opinion of management, necessary to present a fair statement of CSWI’s financial position as of December 31, 2023, and the results of operations for the nine-month period ended December 31, 2023 and 2022. All adjustments are of a normal, recurring nature.

The year-end condensed consolidated balance sheet data was derived from audited financial statements but does not include all disclosures required by U.S. GAAP. These condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and the notes thereto included in CSWI’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2023 (the “Annual Report”).
