GRAHAM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(Unaudited)
(Amounts in thousands, except per share data)
NOTE 1 – BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
Graham Corporation's (the "Company's") Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include its wholly-owned subsidiaries located in Suzhou, China and Ahmedabad, India at June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, and its recently acquired wholly-owned subsidiary, Barber-Nichols, LLC ("BN"), located in Arvada, Colorado at June 30, 2021 and for the period June 1, 2021 through June 30, 2021 (See Note 2). The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. ("GAAP") for interim financial information and the instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 8-03 of Regulation S-X, each as promulgated by the U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission. The Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include all information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2021 presented herein was derived from the Company’s audited Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2021. For additional information, please refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021 ("fiscal 2021"). In the opinion of management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair presentation, have been included in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company's results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the current fiscal year, which ends March 31, 2022 ("fiscal 2022").
NOTE 2 – ACQUISITION:
On June 1, 2021, the Company completed its acquisition of Barber-Nichols, LLC ("BN"), a privately-owned designer and manufacturer of turbomachinery products located in Arvada, Colorado that serves the defense and aerospace industry as well as the energy and cryogenic markets. The Company believes this acquisition furthers its growth strategy through market and product diversification, broadens its offerings and strengthens its presence in the defense industry, builds on its presence in the energy markets and adds capabilities in the space industry.
This transaction was accounted for as a business combination which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair value as of the acquisition date. The purchase price of $
The cost of the acquisition was preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition and the amount exceeding the fair value of $

methodology, and was computed as the present value of the expected sales attributable to backlog less the remaining costs to fulfill the backlog. Changes to the preliminary valuation may result in material adjustments to the fair value of assets and liabilities acquired.
The purchase price was allocated to specific intangible assets on a preliminary basis as follows:

The unaudited pro forma information presents the combined operating results of Graham Corporation and BN, with the results prior to the acquisition date adjusted to include the pro forma impact of the adjustment of depreciation of fixed assets based on the preliminary purchase price allocation, the adjustment to interest income reflecting the cash paid in connection with the acquisition, including acquisition-related expenses, at the Company’s weighted average interest income rate, interest expense and loan origination fees at the Company’s current interest rate, amortization expense related to the fair value adjustments for intangible assets, non-recurring acquisition-related costs and the impact of income taxes on the pro forma adjustments utilizing the applicable statutory tax rate.
The unaudited pro forma results are presented for illustrative purposes only. These pro forma results do not purport to be indicative of the results that would have actually been obtained if the acquisition occurred as of the beginning of each of the periods presented, nor does the pro forma data intend to be a projection of results that may be obtained in the future.
NOTE 3 – REVENUE RECOGNITION:
The Company recognizes revenue on contracts when or as it satisfies a performance obligation by transferring control of the product to the customer. For contracts in which revenue is recognized upon shipment, control is generally transferred when products
10
are shipped, title is transferred, significant risks of ownership have transferred, the Company has rights to payment, and rewards of ownership pass to the customer. For contracts in which revenue is recognized over time, control is generally transferred as the Company creates an asset that does not have an alternative use to the Company and the Company has an enforceable right to payment for the performance completed to date.
The following table presents the Company’s revenue disaggregated by product line and geographic area:

A performance obligation represents a promise in a contract to provide a distinct good or service to a customer. The Company accounts for a contract when it has approval and commitment from both parties, the rights of the parties are identified, payment terms are identified, the contract has commercial substance and collectability of consideration is probable. Transaction price reflects the amount of consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for transferred products. A contract’s transaction price is allocated to each distinct performance obligation and revenue is recognized as the performance obligation is satisfied. In certain cases, the Company may separate a contract into more than one performance obligation, while in other cases, several products may be part of a fully integrated solution and are bundled into a single performance obligation. If a contract is separated into more than one performance obligation, the Company allocates the total transaction price to each performance obligation in an amount based on the estimated relative standalone selling prices of the promised goods underlying each performance obligation. The Company has made an accounting policy election to exclude from the measurement of the contract price all taxes assessed by government authorities that are collected by the Company from its customers. The Company does not adjust the contract price for the effects of a financing component if the Company expects, at contract inception, that the period between when a product is transferred to a customer and when the customer pays for the product will be one year or less. Shipping and handling fees billed to the customer are recorded in revenue and the related costs incurred for shipping and handling are included in cost of products sold.
Revenue on the majority of the Company’s contracts, as measured by number of contracts, is recognized upon shipment to the customer. Revenue on larger contracts, which are fewer in number but represent the majority of revenue, is recognized over time. However, in the three months ended June 30, 2020, revenue recognized over time was lower than revenue recognized upon shipment due to limited production on large contracts as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. Revenue from contracts that is recognized upon shipment accounted for approximately
11
opportunities, sourcing determinations, changes in estimates of costs yet to be incurred, availability of materials, and execution by subcontractors. Sales and earnings are adjusted in current accounting periods based on revisions in the contract value due to pricing changes and estimated costs at completion. Losses on contracts are recognized immediately when evident to management.
The timing of revenue recognition, invoicing and cash collections affect trade accounts receivable, unbilled revenue (contract assets) and customer deposits (contract liabilities) on the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unbilled revenue represents revenue on contracts that is recognized over time and exceeds the amount that has been billed to the customer. Unbilled revenue is separately presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The Company may have an unconditional right to payment upon billing and prior to satisfying the performance obligations. The Company will then record a contract liability and an offsetting asset of equal amount until the deposit is collected and the performance obligations are satisfied. Customer deposits are separately presented in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Customer deposits are not considered a significant financing component as they are generally received less than one year before the product is completed or used to procure specific material on a contract, as well as related overhead costs incurred during design and construction.
Net contract assets (liabilities) consisted of the following:

NOTE 11 – COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
The Company has been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos allegedly contained in, or accompanying, products made by the Company. The Company is a co-defendant with numerous other defendants in these lawsuits and intends to vigorously defend itself against these claims. The claims in the Company’s current lawsuits are similar to those made in previous asbestos-related suits that named the Company as a defendant, which either were dismissed when it was shown that the Company had not supplied products to the plaintiffs’ places of work or were settled for immaterial amounts. The Company cannot provide any assurances that any pending or future matters will be resolved in the same manner as previous lawsuits.
As of June 30, 2021, the Company was subject to the claims noted above, as well as other legal proceedings and potential claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business.
Although the outcome of the lawsuits, legal proceedings or potential claims to which the Company is, or may become, a party to cannot be determined and an estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss cannot be made for the majority of the claims, management does not believe that the outcomes, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations, financial position or cash flows.

NOTE 12 – INCOME TAXES:
The Company files federal and state income tax returns in several domestic and international jurisdictions.

NOTE 14 – LEASES:
The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities, office space, machinery and office equipment. An arrangement is considered to contain a lease if it conveys the right to use and control an identified asset for a period of time in exchange for consideration. If it is determined that an arrangement contains a lease, then a classification of a lease as operating or finance is determined by evaluating the five criteria outlined in the lease accounting guidance at inception. Leases generally have remaining
16
terms of
Right-of-use (“ROU”) lease assets and lease liabilities are recognized based on the present value of the future minimum lease payments over the lease term at commencement date. ROU assets represent the Company’s right to use an underlying asset for the lease term and lease liabilities represent the Company’s obligation to make payments in exchange for that right of use. Finance lease ROU assets and operating lease ROU assets are included in the line items “Property, plant and equipment, net” and “Operating lease assets”, respectively, in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The current portion and non-current portion of finance and operating lease liabilities are all presented separately in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.
The discount rate implicit within the Company’s leases is generally not readily determinable, and therefore, the Company uses an incremental borrowing rate in determining the present value of lease payments based on rates available at commencement.
The weighted average remaining lease term and discount rate for finance and operating leases are as follows:

NOTE 16 – ACCOUNTING AND REPORTING CHANGES:
In the normal course of business, management evaluates all new accounting pronouncements issued by the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB"), the Securities and Exchange Commission, the Emerging Issues Task Force, the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants or any other authoritative accounting body to determine the potential impact they may have on the Company's consolidated financial statements.
In December 2019, the FASB issued Accounting Standards Update ("ASU") No. 2019-12, “Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes.” The amended guidance simplifies the accounting for income taxes, eliminating certain exceptions to the general income tax principles, in an effort to reduce the cost and complexity of application. The amended guidance is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2020, including interim periods within those fiscal years. The guidance requires application on either a prospective, retrospective or modified retrospective basis, contingent on the income tax exception being applied. The Company adopted the new guidance, on a prospective basis, on

Item 2.Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations
(Dollar amounts in thousands, except per share data)
Overview
We are a global business that designs, manufactures and sells critical equipment for the defense, energy and chemical/petrochemical industries. For the defense industry our equipment is used in nuclear propulsion power systems and for undersea propulsion and power systems. Our energy markets include oil refining, cogeneration, and alternative power. For the chemical and petrochemical industries, our equipment is used in fertilizer, ethylene, methanol and downstream chemical facilities. We also are a provider of specialized systems and equipment for the aerospace and space industries.
Our global brand is built upon engineering expertise and close customer collaboration to design, develop, and produce mission critical equipment and systems that enable our customers to meet their economic and operational objectives. Continual improvement of our processes and systems to ensure qualified and compliant equipment are hallmarks of our brand. Our early engagement with customers and support until the end of service life are values upon which our brand is built.
Our corporate headquarters are located in Batavia, New York. We have production facilities co-located with our headquarters in Batavia. We have a wholly-owned subsidiary, Barber-Nichols, LLC, based in Arvada, Colorado, that designs, develops, manufactures and sells turbomachinery products for the aerospace, cryogenic, defense and energy markets (see "Acquisition" below). We also have wholly-owned foreign subsidiaries, Graham Vacuum and Heat Transfer Technology (Suzhou) Co., Ltd. ("GVHTT"), located in Suzhou, China and Graham India Private Limited ("GIPL"), located in Ahmedabad, India. GVHTT provides sales and engineering support for us in the People's Republic of China and management oversight throughout Southeast Asia. GIPL serves as a sales and market development office focusing on the refining, petrochemical and fertilizer markets in India.
We completed the acquisition of Barber-Nichols, LLC ("BN") on June 1, 2021.
Our current fiscal year (which we refer to as "fiscal 2022") ends March 31, 2022.
Acquisition
We completed the acquisition of Barber-Nichols, LLC ("BN") on June 1, 2021. BN was founded as a turbomachinery engineering company in 1966. BN has grown rapidly from programs that involve complex production and system integration. BN is located in Arvada, Colorado, a suburb of Denver. BN uses a combination of knowledge in rotating equipment, power generation cycles, and electrical management systems and has participated in the design and development of different power and propulsion systems used in underwater vehicles.
The acquisition of BN is expected to change the composition of the Company’s future end market mix. We expect approximately 45%-50% of our business for the last ten months of fiscal 2022, after the acquisition, to provide equipment to the U.S. Navy. We expect the energy market to be 35%-40% of sales and the aerospace and other markets to be 10%-15% of sales.
The transaction was accounted for as a business combination, which requires that assets acquired and liabilities assumed be recognized at their fair value as of the acquisition date. The purchase price of $72,014 was comprised of 610 shares of the Company’s common stock, representing a value of $8,964 at $14.69 per share, and cash consideration of $61,150, subject to certain potential adjustments, including a customary working capital adjustment. The cash consideration was funded through cash on-hand and debt proceeds (See Note 15). The purchase agreement with respect to the acquisition also includes a contingent earn-out dependent upon certain financial measures of BN post-acquisition, pursuant to which the sellers are eligible to receive up to $14,000 in additional cash consideration. As of June 30, 2021, a liability of $1,900 was recorded for the contingent earn-out. If achieved, the earn-out will be payable in fiscal year 2025 and will be treated as additional purchase price. Acquisition related costs of $169 were expensed in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 and are included in Selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statement of Operations.

Current Market Conditions
Demand for our equipment and systems for the defense industry is expected to remain strong and continue to expand based on the planned procurement of submarines, aircraft carriers and undersea propulsion and power systems. Submarines, both Virginia and Columbia classes, are considered critical to national defense. We do not anticipate demand for our equipment and systems will abate and is actually reported to continue to increase in the coming years. With the addition of revenue from the BN acquisition, consolidated revenue for the U.S. Navy is projected to be $60 million to $70 million in the current fiscal year, with growth expected in subsequent years. In addition to U.S. Navy applications, we also provide specialty pumps, turbines, and compressors and controllers for various fluid and thermal management systems used in DoD radar, laser, electronics and power systems. We have built a leading position, and in some instances, sole sourcing position, for certain systems and equipment supporting the confidence we have in near term outlook.
The energy and petrochemical markets continue to be impacted by demand disruption caused by the COVID-19 global pandemic. Western energy markets are further impacted by alternative energy growth with reduced reliance of fossil-based fuels. This, we believe, has caused our crude oil refining customers to reduce sustaining or MRO spending and dramatically scale back strategic growth investment. Our western energy and crude oil refining customers are not expected to return to previous levels of investment in the near term, though we are seeing some improvements compared with the second half of last year. Within our emerging or developing markets, we anticipate new capacity investment will occur in the latter half of the current fiscal year. This market needs local refining capacity to meet local demand for petroleum products.
We continue to believe that the energy markets, in particular crude oil refining, simultaneous with the above-described reduction in demand, are undergoing a more fundamental evolution. We believe that systemic changes in the energy markers are occurring and that such changes are being driven, in part, by the increasing use by consumers of alternative fuels in lieu of fossil fuels. As a result, we anticipate demand growth for fossil-based fuels will be less than the global GDP growth rate. Accordingly, we expect that crude oil refiners will focus new investments toward the installed base, and that inefficient refineries will close and new refining capacity will be co-located where fuels and petrochemicals are produced. We also anticipate that future investment by refiners in renewable fuels (e.g., renewable diesel), in existing refineries (e.g., to expand feedstock processing flexibility and to improve conversion of oil to refined products), to gain greater throughput, or to build new capacity (e.g., integrated refineries with petrochemical products capabilities) will continue to drive demand for our products and services.
We expect Asian investment in chemical/petrochemical new capacity will return during the next 12-18 months while our Western integrated energy companies with petrochemical production assets will continue to limit capital investment. The timing and catalyst for a recovery in our commercial markets (crude oil refining and chemical/petrochemical markets) remains uncertain. Accordingly, we believe that in the near term the quantity of projects available for us to compete for will be fewer and that the pricing environment will remain challenging.
The alternative and clean energy opportunities for our heat transfer, power production and fluid transfer systems are expected to continue to grow. We assist in designing, developing and producing equipment for hydrogen production, distribution and fueling systems, concentrated solar power and storage, and small modular nuclear systems. While this business is small currently, we believe that we are positioning the Company to be a more significant contributor as these markets continue to develop.
We believe in the near and medium terms that chemical and petrochemical capital investment will continue to decouple from energy investment. Over the long term, we expect that population growth, an expanding global middle class and an increasing desire for improved quality of life and access to consumer products will drive increased demand for industrial goods within the plastics and resins value chain along with fertilizers or related products. Consequently, when global economies return to stable growth, we expect investment in new global chemical and petrochemical capacity will resume and that such investments will drive growth in demand for our products and services.
BN products and market access provide revenue and growth potential in the commercial space/aerospace markets. As the commercial space market has grown and evolved rapidly, BN has provided rocket engine turbopump systems and components for many of the launch providers. We expect that extended space travel will become more prevalent, and we anticipate that our thermal/fluid management and environmental control and life support system turbomachinery will play important roles. BN is also participating in future aerospace power and propulsion system development through supply of fluid and thermal management systems components. Small power dense systems are imperative for these applications and we believe our technology and expertise will allow us to participate in this market as well.
22
The chart below shows the impact of our successful diversification strategy. The defense market comprised 80% of our total backlog at June 30, 2021. We believe this diversification is especially beneficial when our commercial markets are weak, as is presently the case.
*Note: FYE refers to fiscal year ended March 31

The First Quarter of Fiscal 2022 Compared With the First Quarter of Fiscal 2021
Sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 were $20,157, a 21% increase from sales of $16,710 for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. Our domestic sales, as a percentage of aggregate sales, were 69% in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared with 56% in the first quarter of fiscal 2021. Domestic sales increased $4,456 in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, or 47% year-over-year, primarily due to the acquisition of BN, which contributed $3,415 in the quarter for the one month that we owned the company. International sales decreased $1,009, or 14%, in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2021. Sales in the three months ended June 30, 2021 were 23% to the refining industry, 23% to the chemical and petrochemical industries, 35% for the defense (U.S. Navy) industry, 4% to space, and 15% to other commercial and industrial applications. Sales in the three months ended June 30, 2020 were 16% to the refining industry, 48% to the chemical and petrochemical industries, 21% for the defense (U.S. Navy) industry and
23
15% to other commercial and industrial applications. The three months ended June 30, 2020 were heavily impacted by our decision to shut down operations while continuing to support our employees. We operated at approximately 50% capacity during this time. Fluctuation in sales among markets, products and geographic locations varies, sometimes significantly, from quarter-to-quarter based on timing and magnitude of projects. See also "Current Market Conditions," above. For additional information on anticipated future sales and our markets, see "Orders and Backlog" below.
Gross profit margin and operating margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 were 5% and (19%), respectively, compared with 9% and (14%), respectively, for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. Gross profit for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 decreased compared with fiscal 2021, to $914 from $1,568, due to mix, including projects with lower margins, COVID-19 related liquidated damages and timing of expenses.
SG&A expenses as a percent of sales for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were 24% and 23%, respectively. SG&A expenses in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 were $4,923, an increase of $1,021 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2021 SG&A expenses of $3,902. The addition of BN, including the impact of purchase price amortization, accounted for $587 or half of the increase. The remaining increase was due to acquisition-related and organizational development costs.
Interest income for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was $17 and $94, respectively. The decrease in interest income was due to lower market investment rates compared with rates during the prior year period as well as less cash and investments after the BN acquisition. Interest expense was $39 for the quarter ended June 30, 2021, compared with $5 for the quarter ended June 30, 2020. The increase was due to the interest on the term debt which was entered into in conjunction with the aforementioned acquisition.
Our effective tax rate in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was 19%, compared with 17% in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.
Net loss and loss per diluted share for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 were $3,126 and $0.31, respectively, compared with $1,818 and $0.18, respectively, in the first quarter of fiscal 2021.

Net cash used by operating activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2022 was $7,076 which was comparable with $4,373 of cash used for the first quarter of fiscal 2021. The increase in cash utilization was primarily due to decreases in customer deposits, accrued compensation and income taxes, partly offset by a decrease in accounts receivable.
Dividend payments and capital expenditures in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 were $1,177 and $446, respectively, compared with $1,097 and $338, respectively, for the first quarter of fiscal 2021.
Capital expenditures for fiscal 2022 are expected to be approximately $3,500 to $4,000.
Cash and investments were $19,143 on June 30, 2021 compared with $65,032 on March 31, 2021, down $45,889, primarily due to the BN acquisition.
We invest net cash generated from operations in excess of cash held for near-term needs in short-term, or less than 365 days, certificates of deposit, money market accounts or U.S. government instruments, generally with maturity periods of up to 180 days.
24
Our money market account is used to securitize our outstanding letters of credit, which reduces our cost on those letters of credit. Approximately 70% of our cash and investments are held in the U.S. The remaining 30% is invested in our China operations.
On June 1, 2021, we entered into a $20,000 five-year term loan with Bank of America. The term loan requires monthly principal payments of $167 through June 1, 2026, with the remaining principal amount plus all interest due on the maturity date. The interest rate on the term loan is the applicable Bloomberg Short-Term Bank Yield Index ("BSBY"), plus 1.50%, subject to a 0.00% floor. The BSBY rate at June 30, 2021 was 0.0558%. In addition, on June 1, 2021, we terminated our revolving credit facility agreement with JPMorgan Chase Bank, N.A. and entered into a revolving credit facility with Bank of America that provides a $30,000 line of credit, including letters of credit and bank guarantees, expandable at our option and the bank’s approval at any time up to $40,000. The agreement has a five-year term. Amounts outstanding under the facility agreement bear interest at a rate equal to BSBY plus 1.50% per annum of the outstanding undrawn amount of each letter of credit that is not secured by cash and 0.6% of each commercial letter of credit that is secured by cash, subject to a 0.00% floor. Outstanding letters of credit under the agreement are subject to a fee of 1.50%. The upfront fee for both the term loan and revolving credit facility was 0.20% of the committed facilities and amounts available for borrowing under the revolving credit facility are subject to an unused commitment fee of 0.25%. Under the term loan agreement and revolving credit facility, we covenant to maintain a maximum total leverage ratio, as defined in such agreements, of 3.0 to 1.0 and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio, as defined in such agreements, of 1.20 to 1.0 and minimum margined assets, as defined in such agreements, of 100% of total amounts outstanding on the revolving credit facility, including letters of credit.
On June, 1, 2021, we entered into an agreement to amend and restate our letter of credit facility agreement with HSBC Bank USA, N.A. and decreased our line of credit from $15,000 to $7,500. Under the amended agreement, we incur an annual facility fee of $5 and outstanding letters of credit are subject to a fee of between 0.75% and 0.85%, depending on the term of the letter of credit. Interest is payable on the principal amounts of unreimbursed letter of credit draws under the facility at a rate of 3% plus the bank’s prime rate.
Letters of credit outstanding on June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021 were $8,711 and $11,567, respectively. The outstanding letters of credit as of June 30, 2021 were issued by Bank of America, HSBC and residual items from our prior agreement with JP Morgan. There was $2,500 outstanding on our Bank of America revolving credit facilities at June 30, 2021. There were no amounts outstanding on our facilities on March 31, 2021, other than letters of credit. Availability under the Bank of America and HSBC lines of credit on June 30, 2021 was $28,039. Availability under the JP Morgan and HSBC lines of credit on March 31, 2021 was $25,433. We believe that cash generated from operations, combined with our investments and available financing capacity under our credit facility, will be adequate both to meet our cash needs for the immediate future and to support our growth strategies.
Orders and Backlog
Management uses orders and backlog as measures of our current and future business and financial performance. Orders for the three-month period ended June 30, 2021 were $20,867 compared with $11,468 for the same period last year, an increase of $9,399. Orders represent written communications received from customers requesting us to supply products and/or services. Domestic orders were 74% of total orders, or $15,402, and international orders were 26% of total orders, or $5,465, in the first quarter of fiscal 2022 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2021 when domestic orders were 28%, or $3,232, of total orders, and international orders were 72%, or $8,236, of total orders. Orders from BN for the one month that we owned BN during the quarter were $206.
Backlog was $235,938 at June 30, 2021, compared with $137,567 at March 31, 2021, a 72% increase or $98,371. Of the increase, $94,414 was due to our acquisition of BN. Backlog is defined as the total dollar value of orders received for which revenue has not yet been recognized. Approximately 45% to 50% of orders currently in our backlog are expected to be converted to sales within one year. The majority of the orders that are expected to convert beyond twelve months are for the defense industry, specifically the U.S. Navy. At June 30, 2021, 80% of our backlog was attributable to U.S. Navy projects, 12% for refinery project work, 3% for chemical and petrochemical projects, 2% for space projects and 3% for other industrial applications. At March 31, 2021, 76% for U.S. Navy projects, 16% of our backlog was attributable to equipment for refinery project work, 6% for chemical and petrochemical projects and 2% for other industrial applications. At June 30, 2021, we had no projects on hold.
Outlook
Our defense business continues to be strong. With the acquisition of BN, 80% of our $235,938 backlog is in defense. While much of the defense backlog includes projects with order to shipment of up to five years, we are expecting 45% to 50% of our sales in fiscal 2022 to be from the defense market.
Capital spending in the commercial markets we serve began to decrease during the second half of fiscal 2020 and the pace of activity further materially contracted as COVID-19 became a global pandemic in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2020. Our weak commercial markets continued into fiscal 2021 and we are not seeing a recovery as we enter fiscal 2022. This is particularly evident
25
in North America. As a result, our overall bidding activity has slowed, and this was clearly evident in fiscal 2021 and impacted our first quarter of fiscal 2022 results. There has also been a shift toward more opportunities in emerging markets.
Near term opportunities in the global energy and petrochemical markets have slowed significantly due to the combined impact of the COVID-19 pandemic and the geopolitical imbalance of supply, as previously discussed. Although we do not know when the COVID-19 pandemic will end or when the supply imbalance will subside, we expect our energy markets to improve. In addition, we believe the petrochemical markets provide long-term growth opportunities for our products and services.
We intend to continue to look for organic growth opportunities as well as acquisitions or other business combinations that we believe will allow us to expand our presence in both our existing and ancillary markets.
Our expectations for sales and profitability assume that we are able to operate our production facilities in Batavia, New York and Arvada, Colorado at or near "normal" (pre-COVID-19) capacity throughout fiscal 2022. We project that approximately 35% to 40% of our $235,938 June 30, 2021 backlog will convert to sales in the last nine months of fiscal 2022 and 45% to 50% will convert to sales over the next 12 months. We expect the remaining backlog will convert beyond fiscal 2022, which includes a combination of U.S. Navy orders that have a long conversion cycle (up to five years) as well as certain commercial orders, the conversion of which has been extended by our customers.
Revenue in fiscal 2022 is expected to be $130,000 to $140,000, inclusive of $45,000 to $48,000 related to BN for the ten-month period we will own the business in the current fiscal year. We expect to have approximately $2,700 of acquisition related purchase price accounting costs, including intangible asset amortization, to be recognized in fiscal 2022, which will primarily be amortization of intangible assets. Approximately $1,600 will be charged to cost of goods sold and the remaining $1,100 to SG&A. Inclusive of the purchase accounting costs, we expect gross profit margins to be 17% to 18% of sales and SG&A to be 15% to 16% of sales. Our expected tax rate is 24% to 25%. Adjusted earnings before net interest expense, income taxes, depreciation and amortization for the combined business is expected to be approximately $7,000 to $9,000. All of the above expectations are inclusive of BN for the ten-month period we will own it during the current fiscal year.
Although cash flow was negative in the first quarter of fiscal 2022, we expect positive cash flow from operations for the remaining nine months of fiscal 2022.
Contingencies and Commitments
We have been named as a defendant in lawsuits alleging personal injury from exposure to asbestos allegedly contained in or accompanying our products. We are a co-defendant with numerous other defendants in these lawsuits and intend to vigorously defend ourselves against these claims. The claims in our current lawsuits are similar to those made in previous asbestos lawsuits that named us as a defendant. Such previous lawsuits either were dismissed when it was shown that we had not supplied products to the plaintiffs’ places of work, or were settled by us for immaterial amounts.
As of June 30, 2021, we are subject to the claims noted above, as well as other legal proceedings and potential claims that have arisen in the ordinary course of business. Although the outcome of the lawsuits, legal proceedings or potential claims to which we are or may become a party cannot be determined and an estimate of the reasonably possible loss or range of loss cannot be made for the majority of the claims, we do not believe that the outcomes, either individually or in the aggregate, will have a material adverse effect on our results of operations, financial position or cash flows.
Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates, and Judgments
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are based on the selection of accounting policies and the application of significant accounting estimates, some of which require management to make significant assumptions. We believe that the most critical accounting estimates used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements relate to labor hour and total cost estimates and establishment of operational milestones which are used to recognize revenue under the overtime recognition model, accounting for contingencies, under which we accrue a loss when it is probable that a liability has been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated, and accounting for pensions and other postretirement benefits. For further information, refer to Item 7 "Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations" and Item 8 "Financial Statements and Supplementary Data" included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2021.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2021 or March 31, 2021, other than letters of credit.
26
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
The principal market risks (i.e., the risk of loss arising from market changes) to which we are exposed are foreign currency exchange rates, price risk, project cancellation risk and trade policy.
The assumptions applied in preparing the following qualitative and quantitative disclosures regarding foreign currency exchange rate, price risk and project cancellation risk are based upon volatility ranges experienced by us in relevant historical periods, our current knowledge of the marketplace, and our judgment of the probability of future volatility based upon the historical trends and economic conditions of the markets in which we operate.
Foreign Currency
International consolidated sales for the first three months of fiscal 2022 were 31% of total sales compared with 44% for the same period of fiscal 2021. Operating in markets throughout the world exposes us to movements in currency exchange rates. Currency movements can affect sales in several ways, the foremost being our ability to compete for orders against foreign competitors that base their prices on relatively weaker currencies. Business lost due to competition for orders against competitors using a relatively weaker currency cannot be quantified. In addition, cash can be adversely impacted by the conversion of sales made by us in a foreign currency to U.S. dollars. In each of the first three months of fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, all sales by us and our wholly-owned subsidiaries, for which we were paid, were denominated in the local currency of the respective subsidiary (U.S. dollars, Chinese RMB or India INR).
We have limited exposure to foreign currency purchases. In the first three months of fiscal 2022 and 2021, our purchases in foreign currencies represented approximately 1% and 2% of the cost of products sold, respectively. At certain times, we may enter into forward foreign currency exchange agreements to hedge our exposure against potential unfavorable changes in foreign currency values on significant sales and purchase contracts negotiated in foreign currencies. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts were not used in the periods being reported in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and as of June 30, 2021 and March 31, 2021, we held no forward foreign currency contracts.
Price Risk
Operating in a global marketplace requires us to compete with other global manufacturers which, in some instances, benefit from lower production costs and more favorable economic conditions. Although we believe that our customers differentiate our products on the basis of our manufacturing quality, responsive and flexible service, and engineering experience and excellence, among other things, such lower production costs and more favorable economic conditions mean that certain of our competitors are able to offer products similar to ours at lower prices. The cost of metals and other materials used in our products can experience significant volatility, and as such, can impact our ability to reflect this volatility in our pricing.
Project Cancellation and Project Continuation Risk
Open orders are reviewed continuously through communications with customers. If it becomes evident to us that a project is delayed well beyond its original shipment date, management will move the project into "placed on hold" (i.e. suspended) category. Furthermore, if a project is cancelled by our customer, it is removed from our backlog. We attempt to mitigate the risk of cancellation by structuring contracts with our customers to maximize the likelihood that progress payments made to us for individual projects cover the costs we have incurred. As a result, we do not believe we have a significant cash exposure to projects which may be cancelled. At June 30, 2021, we had no projects on hold.
Item 4.Controls and Procedures
Conclusion regarding the effectiveness of disclosure controls and procedures
Our President and Chief Executive Officer (principal executive officer) and Vice President - Finance & Administration and Chief Financial Officer (principal financial officer) each have evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e)) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on such evaluation, and as of such date, our President and Chief Executive Officer and Vice President - Finance & Administration and Chief Financial Officer concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective in all material respects.
27
Changes in internal control over financial reporting
Other than the events discussed under the section entitled Barber-Nichols Acquisition below, there has been no change to our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q that has materially affected, or that is reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting. We have not experienced any material impact to our internal controls over financial reporting.
Barber-Nichols Acquisition
On June 1, 2021, we acquired Barber-Nichols, LLC, a privately-owned designer and manufacturer of turbomachinery products for the aerospace, cryogenic, defense and energy markets, located in Arvada, Colorado. For additional information regarding the acquisition, refer to Note 2 to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Item 1 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations included in Item 2 in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on recent completion of this acquisition and, pursuant to the Securities and Exchange Commission’s guidance that an assessment of a recently acquired business may be omitted from the scope of an assessment for a period not to exceed one year form the date of acquisition, the scope of our assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of the end of the period covered by this report does not include Barber-Nichols, LLC.
We are in the process of implementing our internal control structure over the Barber-Nichols, LLC acquisition and we expect that this effort will be completed during the fiscal year ending March 31, 2023.

PART II - OTHER INFORMATION
Item 1A.Risk Factors
Except as stated below, there have been no material changes from the risk factors previously disclosed in Part 1 – Item 1A of the Company’s Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2021.
If we fail to successfully integrate the operations of Barber-Nichols, LLC, our financial condition and results of operations could be adversely affected.
On June 1, 2021, we acquired Barber-Nichols, LLC, which provides products to the aerospace, cryogenic and defense and energy markets. We cannot provide any assurances that we will be able to integrate the operations of Barber-Nichols, LLC without encountering difficulties, including unanticipated costs, difficulty in retaining customers and supplier or other relationships, failure to retain key employees, diversion of management’s attention, failure to integrate our information and accounting systems or establish and maintain proper internal control over financial reporting, any of which would harm our business and results of operations.
Furthermore, we may not realize the revenue and net income that we expect to achieve or that would justify our investment in Barber-Nichols, LLC, and we may incur costs in excess of what we anticipate. To effectively manage our expected future growth, we must continue to successfully manage our integration of Barber-Nichols, LLC and continue to improve our operational systems, internal procedures, accounts receivable and management, financial and operational controls. If we fail in any of these areas, our business and results of operations could be harmed.
Our acquisition of Barber-Nichols, LLC might subject us to unknown and unforeseen liabilities.
Barber-Nichols, LLC may have unknown liabilities, including, but not limited to, product liability, workers’ compensation liability, tax liability and liability for improper business practices. Although we are entitled to indemnification from the seller of Barber-Nichols, LLC for these and other matters, we could experience difficulty enforcing those obligations or we could incur material liabilities for the past activities of Barber-Nichols, LLC. Such liabilities and related legal or other costs could harm our business or results of operations.
