PART I

ITEM 1. BUSINESS

Overview

LSI Industries Inc. (LSI) is a leading producer of non-residential lighting and retail display solutions. Non-residential lighting consists of high-performance, American-made lighting solutions. The Company’s strength in outdoor lighting applications creates opportunities for it to introduce additional solutions to its valued customers. Retail display solutions consist of graphics solutions, digital signage, and technically advanced food display equipment for strategic vertical markets. LSI’s team of internal specialists also provide comprehensive project management services in support of large-scale product rollouts.

Our business is organized as follows: the Lighting Segment, which represented 51% of our fiscal 2022 net sales and the Display Solutions Segment, which represented 49% of our fiscal 2022 net sales. See Note 3 of Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements beginning on page 48 of this Form 10-K for additional information on business segments. Net sales by segment are as follows (in thousands):

	2022		2021
Lighting Segment	$	233,449	$	189,000
Display Solutions Segment		221,671		126,612
Total Net Sales	$	455,120	$	315,612

Lighting Segment

Our Lighting Segment manufactures, markets, and sells outdoor and indoor lighting fixture and controls solutions in the commercial and industrial markets, including the following vertical markets: refueling and convenience store, parking lot and garage, quick-service restaurant, retail, grocery and pharmacy, automotive dealership, sports court and field, and warehouse. We service these markets through multiple channels: project business sold through electrical distributors and agents and shipped directly to the customer; standard products sold to and stocked by distributors; and direct to end-use customers. Our products are designed and manufactured to provide maximum customer value and meet the high-quality, competitively priced product requirements of the markets we serve. Focusing on key vertical applications allows us to deliver unique product solutions, which in turn provide differentiated value to our customers.

Our lighting fixtures, poles and brackets are produced in a variety of designs, styles, and finishes. Important functional variations include types of mounting, such as pole, bracket and surface, and the nature of the light requirement, such as but not limited to interior and exterior down-lighting, wall-wash lighting, canopy lighting, flood lighting, emergency exit lighting, area lighting and security lighting. We also offer a variety of lighting controls including sensors, photocontrols, dimmers, motion detection and Bluetooth systems to support our lighting fixtures. Our engineering professionals perform photometric analyses and wind load safety studies for our light fixtures. In addition, our light fixtures are certified to Universal Labs (UL), DesignLights Consortium (DLC), International Dark-Sky Association (IDA, for outdoor lighting) and Institute for Printed Circuits (IPC) standards, to name a few. Our lighting products utilize high efficient LED light sources. All of our products are designed for performance, reliability, ease of installation and service, as well as attractive appearance. In addition, we also focus on designing lighting system solutions and implementing strategies related to energy savings in all markets served.

Display Solutions Segment

The Display Solutions Segment manufactures, sells and installs exterior and interior visual image and display elements, including printed graphics, structural graphics, digital signage, menu board systems, store display fixtures, refrigerated displays, and custom display elements. The major products and services offered within our Display Solutions Segment include signage and canopy graphics, pump dispenser graphics, building fascia graphics, decals, interior signage and marketing graphics, aisle markers, wall mural graphics, and refrigerated and non-refrigerated merchandising displays. We also provide a variety of project management services to complement our display elements, such as installation management, site surveys, permitting, and content management which are offered to our customers to support our digital signage. We also manage and execute the implementation of large rollout programs with our professional services group. These programs provide our customers a variety of display solutions and visual image upgrades in the same markets served in the lighting segment, which include the following markets: refueling and convenience store, quick-service restaurant, retail, grocery and pharmacy, and automotive dealerships. We believe our expertise with the products and services we offer in the markets we serve represents a significant competitive advantage. We work with our customers and design firms to establish and implement cost-effective corporate visual image programs to advance our customer’s brands and deliver value to their customers. Increasingly, we have become the primary supplier of exterior and interior visual image and display elements for our customers.

Sales, Customers and Marketing

The products and services we offer are sold primarily throughout the United States, but also in Canada, Mexico, Australia, and Latin America (approximately 5% of consolidated net sales are outside the United States). Our lighting product sales originate from two primary revenue streams. The first revenue stream is from project-based business, quoting and receiving orders as a preferred vendor for product sales to multiple end-users, including customer-owned as well as franchised and licensed dealer operations. The second revenue stream is from selling standard products to stocking distributors, who subsequently provide products to electrical contractors and end users for a variety of lighting applications. Our display solution elements and related services, which in many instances are program-driven, are sold primarily through our own sales force.

Sales are developed through a wide variety of contacts such as, but not limited to, national retail marketers, branded product companies, and franchised and dealer operations. In addition, sales are also achieved through recommendations from local architects, engineers, electrical distributors, and contractors. The Company utilizes the latest technology to track sales leads and customer quotes with the goal to turn them into orders from our customers. Our sales are partially seasonal as installation of our non-residential outdoor lighting and visual display solutions in the northern states decreases during the winter months.

The Company markets its products and service capabilities to end users in multiple channels through a broad spectrum of marketing and promotional methods, including direct customer contact, trade shows, on-site and virtual training, print advertising in industry publications, product brochures and other literature, e Learning, the company website, as well social media. We have made investments in our marketing support team to continue to build awareness of LSI’s product and service capabilities. Our marketing approach and means of distribution vary by product line and by market.

Manufacturing and Distribution

We currently operate out of eleven manufacturing facilities located within six U.S. states and one province in Ontario, Canada. The Company added four manufacturing facilities resulting from the acquisition of JSI Store Fixtures (May 2021), which included manufacturing facilities located in Maine, Utah, and Canada.

We design, engineer and manufacture most of our lighting and visual display products through the utilization of lean manufacturing principles. Our investment in our production facilities is focused primarily on improving capabilities, product quality, and manufacturing efficiency, as well as environmental, health, and safety compliance. The majority of products we sell are engineered, designed, and assembled by the Company, while a small portion of the products and components we sell are purchased from select qualified vendors. Our lighting and display solutions products are delivered directly from our manufacturing facilities to our customers utilizing third-party common carriers.

The principal raw materials and purchased components used in the manufacturing of our products are steel, aluminum, aluminum castings, fabrications, LEDs, power supplies, sensors, powder paint, steel tubing, wire harnesses, acrylic, silicon and glass lenses, inks, various graphics substrates such as Aluminum Composite Material (ACM), Expanded PVC sheet (EPVC), vinyl film, styrene, foamboards, wood and wood laminates, condensing units, and digital screens. We source these materials and components from a variety of suppliers. Although an interruption of these supplies and components could disrupt our operations, we believe generally that alternative sources of supply exist and could be readily arranged. As a result of challenges encountered in the supply chain, we have increased our safety stock in certain components in order to mitigate potential disruption to our operations resulting from an anticipated shortage of certain components. We are not dependent on any one supplier for critical component parts. We strive to reduce price volatility in our purchases of raw materials and components through annual contracts with strategic suppliers. Our Lighting operations generally carry a certain level of sub-assemblies and finished goods inventory to meet quick delivery requirements. The Company’s operations dealing with LED products generally carry LED and LED component inventory due to longer lead times. Most lighting products are made to order and shipped shortly after they are manufactured. Our display solutions operations manufacture custom products for customers who require us to stock certain amounts of finished goods in exchange for their commitment to that inventory. An example is our digital signage business, where customers require us to carry an inventory of digital screens to meet the demands of a large rollout program.

-6-

Research and Development:

We invest in the development of new products and solutions as well as the enhancement of existing product offerings to meet the needs of our customers. Research and development costs are directly attributable to new product development, including the development of new technology for both existing and new products, and consist of salaries, payroll taxes, employee benefits, materials, outside legal costs and filing fees related to obtaining patents, supplies, depreciation, and other administrative costs. Research and development costs related to both product and software development totaled $3.6 million and $3.7 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Competition

We experience competition in both segments and in all markets we serve based on numerous factors, including price, brand name recognition, product quality, product design, prompt delivery, energy efficiency, customer relationships, reputation, and service capabilities. Although we have many competitors, both nationally and internationally, some of which have greater financial and other resources, we do not compete with the same companies across both segments and all markets.

Working Capital

For a discussion of our working capital, see “Liquidity and Capital Resources” in Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations."

Backlog Orders

We had a backlog of orders, which we believe to be firm, of $112.4 million and $89.7 million at June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. All orders are expected to be shipped or installed within twelve months.

Environmental Regulations

We are subject to a variety of federal, state, and local provisions regulating the discharge of materials into the environment or otherwise relating to the protection of the environment. These include statutory and regulatory provisions under which we are responsible for the management of hazardous materials we use and the disposition of hazardous wastes resulting from our manufacturing processes. Failure to comply with such provisions could result in fines and other liabilities to the government or third parties.

Human Capital

We recognize that in order to drive innovation, growth, and operational excellence, we must identify, attract, retain, and motivate top talent. Our approach is to develop talent from within and supplement with external hires. We are committed to building a diverse, inclusive, and engaged workforce. Our management teams and all of our employees are expected to exhibit the principles of fairness, honesty, and integrity in the actions we undertake. Our employees must adhere to a code of conduct that sets standards for appropriate behavior and includes required annual training on preventing, identifying, reporting, and stopping any type of unlawful discrimination or unethical actions.

We have 1,380 full-time employees and 149 agency employees as of June 30, 2022. We offer a comprehensive compensation and benefits program to our employees, including competitive wages, medical and dental insurance, and a 401(k)-retirement savings plan. The Company offers a nonqualified deferred compensation plan, an equity-based incentive plan and an incentive plan that is based upon the achievement of the Company’s business plan goals, for certain employees.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR STRATEGY

Our financial condition and results of operations for future periods may be adversely impacted by epidemics, pandemics, outbreaks of infectious disease or similar public health threats and the resulting economic impact.

The occurrence of regional epidemics or a global pandemic such as COVID-19 may adversely affect our operations, financial condition, and results of operations. The COVID-19 pandemic has had widespread, rapidly evolving, and unpredictable impacts on global society, economies, financial markets, and business practices. The extent to which global pandemics impact our business going forward will depend on factors such as the duration and scope of the pandemic; governmental, business, and individuals' actions in response to the pandemic; and the impact on economic activity including the possibility of recession or financial market instability.

Infectious diseases, including COVID-19 and its variants, continue to spread globally, resulting in authorities implementing numerous measures to try to contain them, including but not limited to, travel bans and restrictions, quarantines, shelter in place orders, and shutdowns. These measures have impacted previous operating results and may continue to impact our workforce and operations, the operations of our customers, and those of our respective vendors and suppliers if the diseases continues to spread resulting in further mandated actions. We have experienced some limited disruptions in supply from some of our suppliers, although the disruptions to date have not been significant. Additionally, infectious diseases cause disruption to the construction markets, as well as inventory de-stocking by our distributors, both of which had a negative impact on our sales. Restrictions on access to our manufacturing facilities or on our support operations or workforce, or similar limitations for our vendors and suppliers, and restrictions or disruptions of transportation, such as reduced availability of air transport, port closures, and increased border controls or closures, could limit our capacity to meet customer demand, lead to increased costs and have a material adverse effect on our financial condition and results of operations.

Lower levels of economic activity in our end markets could adversely affect our operating results.

Our businesses operate in several market segments including the refueling and convenience store markets, parking lot and garage markets, quick-service restaurant market, retail and grocery store markets, the automotive market, the warehouse market, and the sports complex market, to name a few. Operating results can be negatively impacted by volatility in these markets. Future downturns in any of the markets we serve could adversely affect our overall sales, profitability, and cash flow. In addition, customer difficulties in the future could result from economic declines or issues arising from the cyclical nature of their business and, in turn, result in decreases in product demand, increases in bad debt write-offs, decreases in timely collection of accounts receivable and adjustments to our allowance for credit losses, resulting in material reductions to our revenues and net earnings.

Our business is cyclical and seasonal, and in downward economic cycles our operating profits and cash flows could be adversely affected.

Historically, sales of our products have been subject to cyclical variations caused by changes in general economic conditions. The demand for our products reflects the capital investment decisions of our customers, which depend upon the general economic conditions of the markets that our customers serve. During periods of expansion in construction and industrial activity, we generally have benefited from increased demand for our products. Conversely, downward economic cycles in these industries result in reductions in sales and pricing of our products, which may reduce our profits and cash flow. During economic downturns, customers also tend to delay purchases of new products. The cyclical and seasonal nature of our business could at times adversely affect our liquidity and financial results.

-9-

Our operating results may be adversely affected by unfavorable economic, political and market conditions.

Economic and political conditions worldwide have from time to time contributed to slowdowns in our industry at large, as well as to the specific markets in which we operate. When combined with ongoing customer consolidation activity and periodic manufacturing and inventory initiatives, an uncertain macro-economic and political climate, including but not limited to a recession or inflationary pressures, and the effects of possible weakness in domestic and foreign financial and credit markets, could lead to reduced demand from our customers and increased price competition for our products, increased risk of excess and obsolete inventories and uncollectible receivables, and higher overhead costs as a percentage of revenue. If the markets in which we participate experience further economic downturns, as well as a slow recovery period, this could negatively impact our sales and revenue generation, margins, and operating expenses, and consequently have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.

The inability to effectively execute our business strategies could adversely affect our financial condition and results of operations.

Various uncertainties and risks are associated with our approach to strategically penetrate certain market verticals, including but not limited to, the development, marketing and selling of new products and solutions, new product development, and the overall development, marketing, and selling of lighting and display solutions. Those uncertainties and risks include but are not limited to diversion of management’s attention; difficulty in retaining or attracting employees; negative impact on relationships and customers; obsolescence of current products and slow new product development; inability to produce products with quality, performance, and cost attributes equal to or better than provided by our competitors; and unforeseen difficulties in the implementation of the management operating structure. Problems with strategy execution could offset anticipated benefits, disrupt service to customers, and impact product quality as well as adversely affect our business. With the addition of new products and solutions, we may encounter new and different competitors that may have more experience with respect to such products and solutions.

The markets in which we operate are subject to competitive pressures that could affect selling prices, and therefore could adversely affect our operating results.

Our businesses operate in markets that are highly competitive, and we compete on the basis of price, quality, service and/or brand name across the industries and markets served. Some of our competitors for certain products, primarily in the Lighting Segment, have greater sales, assets, and financial resources. Some of our competitors are based in foreign countries and have cost structures and prices in foreign currencies. Accordingly, currency fluctuations could cause our U.S. dollar-priced products to be less competitive than our competitors’ products which are priced in other currencies. Competitive pressures could affect prices we charge our customers or demand for our products, which could adversely affect our operating results. Additionally, customers for our products may attempt to reduce the number of vendors from which they purchase in order to reduce the size and diversity of their inventories and their transaction costs. To remain competitive, we will need to invest continuously in research and development, manufacturing, marketing, customer service and support, and our distribution networks. We may not have sufficient resources to continue to make such investments and we may be unable to maintain our competitive position.

We have a concentration of net sales to the refueling and convenience store and grocery markets, and any substantial change in this market could have an adverse effect on our business.

The Company has a concentration of sales in the refueling and convenience store and grocery markets. Sales to the refueling and convenience store market are dependent upon the general conditions prevailing in and the profitability of the Petroleum industry and general market conditions. The refueling and convenience store market can be subject to reactions by the petroleum industry due to world political events, to the price and supply of oil, and to a decline in demand resulting from an economic recession, or other factors. Major disruptions in the petroleum industry generally result in a curtailment of retail marketing efforts, including expansion and refurbishing of retail outlets by the petroleum industry, which could adversely affect our business. The operating environment for the grocery market continues to be characterized by the fragmentation of local, regional, and national retailers, including both retail and digital formats, market consolidation, intense competition, and entry of non-traditional competitors. Customer behavior shifted quickly and considerably during the pandemic, including a shift from food away from home to food at home. The changing operating environment along with changes in customer behaviors within the grocery market could have an adverse impact on the purchasing decisions by one or more of our larger customers in this market. In addition, actions by our competitors, our customer’s financial constraints, and industry factors or otherwise, could have an adverse effect on our business in either of these markets.

-10-

The Company may pursue future growth through strategic acquisitions and investments, which may not yield anticipated benefits

The Company has strengthened its business through strategic acquisitions including the fiscal 2021 acquisition of JSI and may continue to do so as opportunities arise in the future. The Company will benefit from such activity only to the extent that it can effectively leverage and integrate the assets or capabilities of the acquired businesses including, but not limited to, personnel, technology, and operating processes. Moreover, unanticipated events, negative revisions to valuation assumptions and estimates, diversions of resources and management’s attention from other business concerns, and difficulties in attaining synergies, among other factors, could adversely affect the Company’s ability to recover initial and subsequent investments, particularly those related to acquired goodwill and intangible assets, which in turn could result in the impairment of the acquired company’s goodwill and related assets. In addition, such investment transactions may limit the Company’s ability to invest in other activities, which could be more profitable or advantageous.

If we do not develop the appropriate new products or if customers do not accept new products, we could experience a loss of competitive position which could adversely affect future revenues.

The Company is committed to product innovation on a timely basis to meet customer demands. Development of new products for targeted markets requires the Company to develop or otherwise leverage leading technologies in a cost-effective and timely manner. Failure to meet these changing demands could result in a loss of competitive position and seriously impact future revenues. Products or technologies developed by others may render the Company’s products or technologies obsolete or noncompetitive. A fundamental shift in technologies in key product markets could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s operating results and competitive position within the industry. More specifically, the development of new or enhanced products is a complex and uncertain process requiring the anticipation of technological and market trends. Rapidly changing product technologies could adversely impact operating results due to potential technological obsolescence of certain inventories or increased warranty expense related to newly developed LED lighting products or any of the Company’s other products and services. We may experience design, manufacturing, marketing, or other difficulties, such as an inability to attract a sufficient number of experienced engineers which could delay or prevent our development, introduction or marketing of new products or enhancements and result in unexpected expenses. Such difficulties could cause us to lose business from our customers and could adversely affect our competitive position. In addition, added expenses could decrease the profitability associated with those products that do not gain market acceptance.

If we are unable to adequately protect our intellectual property, we may lose some of our competitive advantage.

Our success is determined in part by our ability to obtain United States and foreign patent protection for our technology and to preserve our trade secrets. Our ability to compete and the ability of our business to grow could suffer if our intellectual property rights are not adequately protected. There can be no assurance that our patent applications will result in patents being issued or that current or additional patents will afford protection against competitors. We rely on a combination of patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secret protection and contractual rights to establish and protect our intellectual property. Failure of our patents, copyrights, trademarks and trade secret protection, non-disclosure agreements and other measures to provide protection of our technology and our intellectual property rights could enable our competitors to compete with us more effectively and have an adverse effect on our business, financial condition, and results of operations. In addition, our trade secrets and proprietary know-how may otherwise become known or be independently discovered by others. No guarantee can be given that others will not independently develop substantially equivalent proprietary information or techniques, or otherwise gain access to our proprietary technology.

RISKS RELATED TO OUR OPERATIONS

Sudden or unexpected changes in a customer’s creditworthiness could result in significant accounts receivable write-offs.

The Company takes a conservative approach when extending credit to its customers. Customers are granted an appropriate credit limit based upon the due diligence performed on the customer which includes, among other things, the review of the company’s financial statements and banking information, various credit checks, and payment history the customer has with the Company. At any given time, the Company can have a significant amount of credit exposure with its larger customers. While the Company is frequently monitoring its outstanding receivables with its customers, the risk does exist that a customer with large credit exposure is unable to make payment on its outstanding receivables which could result in a significant write-off of accounts receivable.

-11-

Price increases, significant shortages of raw materials and components, shortages in transportation and an increase in fuel prices could adversely affect our operating margin.

The Company purchases large quantities of raw materials and components such as steel, aluminum, aluminum castings, fabrications, LEDs, power supplies, powder paint, steel tubing, wire harnesses, acrylic, silicon and glass lenses, inks, various graphics substrates such as Aluminum Composite Material (ACM), Expanded PVC sheet (EPVC), vinyl film, styrene, foamboards, wood and wood laminates, condensing units, and digital screens. Materials comprise the largest component of costs, representing approximately 66% and 62% of the cost of sales in 2022 and 2021, respectively. The Company’s operating results could be affected by the availability and price fluctuations of these materials. The Company’s strategic sourcing plans include mitigating supply chain risk by utilizing multiple suppliers for a commodity to avoid significant dependence on any single supplier. Although an interruption of these supplies and components could disrupt our operations, we believe generally that alternative sources of supply exist and could be readily arranged. To mitigate the risk of disruptions in the supply chain, we have increased our safety stock in certain components in order to mitigate a potential disruption to our operations resulting from an anticipated shortage of these same components. With regard to price fluctuations of our raw material and component purchases, the price risk for materials the Company purchases is related to price increases in commodity items that affect all users of the materials, including the Company’s competitors. Significant tariffs or increases in the price of these raw materials and components could further increase the Company’s operating costs and materially adversely affect margins. The Company does, however, seek and qualify new suppliers, negotiate with existing suppliers, and arranges stocking agreements to mitigate risk of supply and price increases. The Company is also impacted by shortages and the availability of transportation of our products to our customers, in addition to rising fuel prices. The Company’s Lighting Segment has implemented price increases and surcharges with customers to offset raw material price increases along, rising transportation costs, and to mitigate the impact of trade tariffs. The Company’s Display Solutions Segment generally establishes new sales prices, reflective of the then current raw material prices and transportation costs, for each program as it begins, with further price increases throughout the life of the program when warranted. Although the Company attempts to pass along increased costs in the form of price increases or surcharges to its customers, the Company may be unsuccessful in doing so for competitive reasons. Even when price increases are successful, the timing of such price increases may lag significantly behind the incurrence of higher costs.

Our information technology systems are subject to certain cyber risks and could be subject to disasters that are beyond our control.

We depend heavily on the proper functioning and availability of our information, communications, and data processing systems, including operating and financial reporting systems, in operating our business. Our systems and those of our technology and communications providers are vulnerable to interruptions caused by natural disasters, power loss, telecommunication and internet failures, cyber-attack, and other events beyond our control. Accordingly, information security and the continued development and enhancement of the controls and processes designed to protect our systems, computers, software, data and networks from attack, damage or unauthorized access remain a priority for us.

We have been, and in the future may be, subject to cybersecurity and malware attacks and other intentional hacking. Any failure to identify and address or to prevent a cyber- or malware-attack could result in service interruptions, operational difficulties, loss of revenues or market share, liability to our customers or others, the diversion of corporate resources, injury to our reputation and increased service and maintenance costs. We have significantly enhanced and will continue to improve our cybersecurity controls in order to minimize the likelihood or impact of a cybersecurity or malware attack.

Our information systems are protected through physical and software security as well as redundant backup systems, however, as cyber-attacks continue to evolve, we are committed to investing in our cyber defenses in order to mitigate the risks. Some of our software systems are utilized by third parties who provide outsourced processing services which may increase the risk of a cyber-security incident. We have invested and continue to invest in technology security initiatives, employee training, information technology risk management and disaster recovery plans. The development and maintenance of these measures is costly and requires ongoing monitoring and updating as technologies change and efforts to overcome security measures become increasingly more sophisticated. Despite our efforts, we are not fully insulated from data breaches, technology disruptions or data loss, which could adversely impact our competitiveness and results of operations. Any future successful cyber-attack or catastrophic natural disaster could significantly affect our operating and financial systems and could temporarily disrupt our ability to provide required services to our customers, impact our ability to manage our operations and perform vital financial processes, any of which could have a materially adverse effect on our business.

-12-

Labor shortages or increases in labor costs could adversely impact our business and results of operations.

We rely heavily on our employees and any shortage of qualified labor could adversely affect our business. If we are not successful in our recruiting and retention efforts due to general labor shortages or otherwise, we could encounter a shortage of qualified employees in future periods. Any such shortage would decrease our ability to produce sufficient quantities of our product to serve our customers effectively. Such a shortage may also require us to pay higher wages for employees and incur a corresponding reduction in our profitability. Improvements in the economy and labor markets also could impact our ability to attract and retain key personnel. Rising wages across an improving economy can increase the competition among employers for a scarce labor force and make it difficult for us to attract and retain key personnel.

If the Company’s products are improperly designed, manufactured, packaged, or labeled, the Company may need to recall those items, may have increased warranty costs, and could be the target of product liability claims.

The Company may need to recall products if they are improperly designed, manufactured, packaged, or labeled, and the Company’s insurance may not provide full coverage for such recall events. Many of the Company's products and solutions have become complex and include sophisticated and sensitive electronic components. The Company has increasingly manufactured certain of those components and products in its own facilities. Widespread product recalls could result in significant losses due to the costs of a recall, the destruction of product inventory, penalties, and lost sales due to the unavailability of a product for a period of time. In addition, products developed by the Company that incorporates LED technology, generally provide for more extensive warranty protection which may result in increased warranty claim costs. The Company may also be liable if the use of any of its products causes harm and could suffer losses from a significant product liability judgment against the Company in excess of its insurance limits. The Company may not be able to obtain indemnity or reimbursement from its suppliers or other third parties for the warranty costs or liabilities associated with its products. A significant product recall, warranty claim, or product liability case could also result in adverse publicity, damage to the Company’s reputation, and a loss of consumer confidence in its products.

Changes in a customer’s demands and commitment to proprietary inventory could result in significant inventory write-offs.

Upgrading or replacing a customer’s current image requires the manufacture of inventory that is specific to the particular customer. This is particularly true in the Display Solutions Segment. In as many instances as possible, we require a commitment from the customer before the inventory is produced. Our request for a commitment can range from a single site or store to a large rollout program involving many sites or stores. The risk does exist that a customer cannot or will not honor its commitment to us. The reasons a customer cannot or will not honor its commitment can range from the bankruptcy of the customer to the change in the image during the rollout program, to canceling the program before its completion and before the inventory is sold to the customer. In each of these instances, we could be left with significant amounts of inventory required to support the customer’s re-imaging. While all efforts are made to hold the customer accountable for its commitment, there is the risk that a significant amount of inventory could be deemed obsolete or no longer usable which could result in significant inventory write-offs.

The turnover of independent commissioned sales representatives could cause a significant disruption in sales volume.

Commissioned sales representatives are critical to generating business in the Lighting Segment. From time to time, commissioned sales representatives representing a particular region resign or are terminated and replaced with new commissioned sales representatives. During this period of transition from the previous agency to the new one, sales in the particular region will likely fall as business is disrupted. It may take several months for the new sales representative to generate sales that will equal or exceed the previous sales representative. There is also the risk that the new sales agency will not attain the sales volume of the previous agency. These sales representative changes may occur individually as one agency is replaced due to lack of performance or changes may occur as a result of the mergers or acquisitions within the lighting industry. On the other hand, these sales representative changes can be widespread as a result of the competitive nature of the lighting industry as LSI and its competition vie for the strongest sales agency in a particular region.

The Company may be unable to sustain significant customer and/or channel partner relationships.

Relationships with customers are directly impacted by the Company’s ability to deliver quality products and services. The loss of or a substantial decrease in the volume of purchases by certain large customers could significantly harm the Company. The Company has relationships with channel partners such as electrical distributors, independent sales agencies, system integrators, contractors, and value-added resellers, to name a few. While the Company maintains positive, and in many cases long-term relationships with these channel partners, the loss of a number of channel partners or substantial decrease in the volume of purchases from a major channel partner or group of channel partners could adversely affect the Company.

-13-

A loss of key personnel or inability to attract qualified personnel could have an adverse effect on our operating results.

The Company’s future success depends on the ability to attract and retain highly skilled technical, managerial, marketing and finance personnel, and, to a significant extent, upon the efforts and abilities of senior management. The Company’s management philosophy of cost-control results in a lean workforce. Future success of the Company will depend on, among other factors, the ability to attract and retain other qualified personnel, particularly executive management, research and development engineers, and sales professionals. The loss of the services of any key employees or the failure to attract or retain other qualified personnel could have a material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations.

Changes in a shift in product mix can have a significant impact on our gross margins.

Certain of our products have higher gross profit margins than others. Further, the difference in gross margin of the products sold within the Lighting and Display Solutions Segments can also vary significantly. Consequently, changes in the product mix of our sales from quarter-to-quarter or from year-to-year can have a significant impact on our reported gross profit margins.

We may not recognize all revenues from our backlog or receive all payments anticipated under awarded projects and customer contracts.

We had backlog of orders of approximately $112.4 million and $89.7 million, as of June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively, with respect to expected future revenues. Our customers have the right under some circumstances to terminate contracts or defer the timing of our shipments or installments and their payments to us. We may not receive all of the revenues from our backlog. If we do not receive all of the revenues we currently expect to receive, our future operating results will be adversely affected. In addition, a delay in the receipt of revenues, even if such revenues are eventually received, may cause our operating results for a particular quarter to fall below our expectations.

We may be required to write-off or impair capitalized costs or intangible assets in the future, or we may incur restructuring costs or other changes, each of which could harm our earnings.

In accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States, we capitalize certain expenditures and advances relating to our acquisitions, pending acquisitions, project development costs, interest costs related to project financing and certain other assets. In addition, we have considerable unamortized assets. From time to time in future periods, we may be required to incur a charge against earnings in an amount equal to any unamortized capitalized expenditures and advances, net of any portion thereof that we estimate will be recoverable, through sale or otherwise, relating to: (i) any operation or other asset that is being sold, permanently shut down, impaired or has not generated or is not expected to generate sufficient cash flow; (ii) any project that is not expected to be successfully completed; and (iii) any goodwill or other intangible assets that are determined to be impaired. As a result of such actions, we would expect to incur restructuring expenses and accounting charges which may be material and may have a material effect on our financial condition.

RISKS RELATED TO LEGAL AND REGULATORY MATTERS

The costs of litigation and compliance with environmental regulations, if significantly increased, could have an adverse effect on our operating profits.

We are, and may in the future be, a party to any number of legal proceedings and claims, including those involving patent litigation, product liability, employment matters, and environmental matters, which could be significant. Given the inherent uncertainty of litigation, we can offer no assurance that existing litigation or a future adverse development will not have a material adverse impact. We are also subject to various laws and regulations relating to environmental protection and the discharge of materials into the environment, and it could potentially be possible we could incur substantial costs as a result of the noncompliance with or liability for clean up or other costs or damages under environmental laws.

Potential changes in U.S. trade policies could have a material adverse effect on the Company.

Changes in the U.S. trade policy, U.S. social, political, regulatory, and economic conditions or in laws and policies governing foreign trade, manufacturing, development and investment in the territories and countries where we currently purchase component parts and sell products, and any resulting negative sentiments towards the United States as a result of such changes, could have an adverse effect on our business.

-14-

We rely on purchased components that are sourced from or manufactured in foreign countries. Import tariffs and potential import tariffs have resulted or may result in increased prices for these imported goods and materials and, in some cases, may result or have resulted in price increases for domestically sourced goods and materials. Changes in U.S. trade policy have resulted and could result in additional reactions from U.S. trading partners, including adopting responsive trade policies making it more difficult or costly for us to export our products or import goods and materials from those countries. These measures could also result in increased costs for goods imported into the U.S. or may cause us to adjust our foreign supply chain. Either of these could require us to increase prices to our customers which may reduce demand, or, if we are unable to increase prices, result in lowering our margin on products sold.

We cannot predict future trade policy or the terms of any renegotiated trade agreements and their impacts on our business. The adoption and expansion of trade restrictions, the occurrence of a trade war, or other governmental action related to tariffs or trade agreements, or policies has the potential to adversely impact demand for our products, our costs, our customers, our suppliers, and the U.S. economy, which in turn could adversely impact our business, financial condition, and results of operations.

RISKS RELATED TO FINANCIAL MATTERS

A significant decline in our stock price could adversely affect our ability to raise additional capital.

The market price of our common stock has experienced fluctuations in fiscal 2021 and prior years. Our progress in developing and commercializing our products, our quarterly operating results, announcements of new products by us or our competitors, our perceived prospects, changes in general conditions in the economy or the financial markets, adverse events related to our strategic relationships, and other developments affecting us, or our competitors could cause the market price of our common stock to fluctuate substantially. In addition, in recent years, including in fiscal 2021, the stock market has experienced significant price and volume fluctuations. This volatility has had a significant effect on the market prices of securities issued by many companies for reasons unrelated to their operating performance. These market fluctuations, regardless of the cause, may materially and adversely affect our stock price, regardless of our operating results, and this could impact our ability to raise capital.

Anti-takeover provisions in our organizational documents and in Ohio law could make difficult or delay a change in management or negatively impact our share price.

Certain provisions of our Articles of Incorporation and Code of Regulations could make it more difficult for a third party to acquire control of us even if such a change in control would increase the value of our common stock and could prevent or hinder attempts by our shareholders to replace or remove our current board of directors or management.

We have a number of provisions in place that will hinder takeover attempts and could reduce the market value of our common stock or prevent sale at a premium. These provisions include:

● the authorization of undesignated preferred stock, which makes it possible for the board of directors to issue preferred stock with voting or other rights or preferences in a manner that could delay or prevent a transaction or a change in control;

● a provision that specifies that special meetings of our shareholders may be called only by our board of directors, our chairman of the board, if one has been elected, our president, or persons holding 50% of our outstanding voting stock;

● any business combination between us and a beneficial owner of 15% or more of our voting power requires the vote of 66 2/3% of the voting power of disinterested shareholders for five years after a party became an interested shareholder;

● any person who becomes a beneficial owner of 15% or more of our voting power must offer to purchase all of our voting securities and securities convertible into or exercisable for our voting securities within 25 days after achieving 15% ownership. The price to be paid would be the greater of the highest price paid by such 15% owner in acquiring its shares or the highest trading price for a period of time prior to such person becoming a 15% owner;

● the votes of holders of 66 2/3% of all outstanding shares is required to amend our Articles of Incorporation and to approve mergers, reorganizations, and similar transactions; and advance notice requirements by shareholders for director nominations and actions to be taken at annual meetings.

-15-

Ohio corporation law contains provisions that may discourage takeover bids for our company that have not negotiated with the board of directors. Such provisions could limit the price that investors might be willing to pay in the future for our shares of common stock. Additionally, shareholders may act by written consent without a meeting only if such written consent is signed by all shareholders.

ITEM 5. MARKET FOR REGISTRANT’S COMMON EQUITY, RELATED STOCKHOLDER MATTERS AND ISSUER PURCHASES OF EQUITY SECURITIES

LSI’s shares of common stock are traded on the NASDAQ Global Select Market under the symbol “LYTS.” At August 31, 2022, there were approximately 581shareholders of record. The Company believes this represents approximately 3,000 beneficial shareholders.

The Company’s Board of Directors has adopted a dividend policy which indicates that dividends will be determined by the Board of Directors in its discretion based upon its evaluation of earnings, cash flow requirements, financial condition, debt levels, stock repurchases, future business developments and opportunities, and other factors deemed relevant by the Board of Directors. The Company has paid annual cash dividends beginning in fiscal 1987 through fiscal 1994, and quarterly cash dividends since fiscal 1995. The Company’s indicated annual rate for payment of a cash dividend at the end of fiscal 2022 was $0.20 per share.

On April 28, 2022, the Company announced that its Board of Directors authorized a new share repurchase program under which the Company may repurchase up to $15 million of its outstanding shares of common stock in the open market, in accordance with all applicable securities laws and regulations, including Rule 10b-18 of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended. The Company’s decision to repurchase its shares, as well as the timing of such repurchases, will depend on a variety of factors, including the ongoing assessment of the Company’s capital needs, the market price of the Company’s common stock, general market conditions and other corporate considerations, as determined by management. The repurchase program may be suspended or discontinued at any time. The Company did not repurchase any shares in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022.

ITEM 7. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

“Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” appears on pages 25 through 31 of this Form 10-K.

ITEM 7A. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK

The Company is exposed to market risk from changes in variable interest rates, changes in prices of raw materials and purchased component parts, and changes in foreign currency translation rates. Each of these risks is discussed below.

Interest Rate Risk

The Company earns interest income on its cash, cash equivalents, and short-term investments (if any) and pays interest expense on its debt (if any). Because of variable interest rates, the Company is exposed to the risk of interest rate fluctuations, which impact interest income, interest expense, and cash flows.

The Company’s $75 million revolving line of credit and $25 million term loan is subject to interest rate fluctuations. Additionally, the Company expects to generate cash from its operations that will subsequently be used to pay down as much of the debt (if any is outstanding) as possible or invest cash in short-term investments (if no debt is outstanding), while still funding the growth of the Company.

Raw Material Price Risk

The Company purchases large quantities of raw materials and components such as are steel, aluminum, aluminum castings, fabrications, LEDs, power supplies, powder paint, steel tubing, wire harnesses, acrylic, silicon and glass lenses, inks, various graphics substrates such as Aluminum Composite Material (ACM), Expanded PVC sheet (EPVC), vinyl film, styrene, foamboards, wood and wood laminates, condensing units, and digital screens. The Company’s operating results could be affected by the availability and price fluctuations of these materials. The Company’s strategic sourcing plans include mitigating supply chain risk by utilizing multiple suppliers for a commodity to avoid significant dependence on any single supplier. Although an interruption of these supplies and components could disrupt our operations, we believe generally that alternative sources of supply exist and could be readily arranged. We have increased our safety stock in certain components in order to mitigate a potential disruption to our operations resulting from an anticipated shortage of these same components. The Company has not experienced any significant supply chain problems in recent years. With regard to price fluctuations of our raw material and component purchases, the price risk for materials the Company purchases is related to price increases in commodity items that affect all users of the materials, including the Company’s competitors. For the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, the raw material component of cost of goods sold subject to price risk was approximately $226.7 million. The Company does not actively hedge or use derivative instruments to manage its risk in this area. The Company does, however, seek and qualify new suppliers, negotiate with existing suppliers, and arranges stocking agreements to mitigate risk of supply shortages and price increases. The Company’s Lighting Segment has implemented price increases with customers to offset raw material price increases and to mitigate the impact of trade tariffs. The Company’s Display Solutions Segment generally establishes new sales prices, reflective of the then current raw material prices, for each program as it begins, with further price increases throughout the life of the program when warranted.

-18-

Foreign Currency Translation Risk

The Company has minimal foreign currency risk with respect to its Mexican and Canadian subsidiaries. The sales transacted by these subsidiaries in pesos and Canadian dollars combined represents approximately 3.6% of the Company’s fiscal 2022 consolidated net sales. All other business conducted by the Company is in U.S. dollars.

ITEM 9A. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES

Disclosure Controls and Procedures

The Company maintains disclosure controls and procedures (as such term is defined Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the Company in the reports that it files under the Exchange Act is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within required time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. Disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.

We conducted, under the supervision of our management, including the Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, an evaluation of the effectiveness of the design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures as defined in Rules 13a-15(e) and 15d-15(e) of the Exchange Act. Based upon our evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded that, as of June 30, 2022, our disclosure controls and procedures were effective. Management believes that the consolidated financial statements included in this Annual Report on Form 10-K are fairly presented in all material respects in accordance with U.S GAAP, and the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have certified that, based on their knowledge, the consolidated financial statements included in this report fairly present in all material respects the Company’s financial condition, results of operations, statement of shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the periods presented in this report.

MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS

The following Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations (“MD&A”) is intended to help the reader understand the results of operations and financial condition of Microsoft Corporation. MD&A is provided as a supplement to, and should be read in conjunction with, our consolidated financial statements and the accompanying Notes to Financial Statements (Part II, Item 8 of this Form 10-K). This section generally discusses the results of our operations for the year ended June 30, 2022, compared to the year ended June 30, 2021. For a discussion of the year ended June 30, 2021, compared to the year ended June 30, 2020, please refer to Part II, Item 7, “Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended June 30, 2021.

Overview

LSI is a leading producer of non-residential lighting and retail display solutions. Non-residential lighting consists of high-performance, American-made lighting products. The Company’s strength in outdoor lighting applications creates opportunities for it to introduce additional solutions to its customers. Retail display solutions consist of graphics solutions, digital signage, and technically advanced food display equipment for strategic vertical markets. LSI’s team of internal specialists also provide comprehensive project management services in support of large-scale rollouts.

Summary of Consolidated Results

Net Sales by Business Segment
(In thousands)	2022		2021
Lighting Segment	$	233,449	$	189,000
Display Solutions Segment		221,671		126,612
Total Net Sales	$	455,120	$	315,612

Operating Income (Loss) by Business Segment
(In thousands)	2022			2021
Lighting Segment	$	20,942		$	13,328
Display Solutions Segment		17,589			9,864
Corporate and Eliminations		(17,330	)		(15,162	)
Total Operating Income	$	21,201		$	8,030

Fiscal 2022 net sales of $455.1 million increased $139.5 million or 44.2% as compared to fiscal 2021 net sales of $315.6 million. Net sales were favorably influenced by increased net sales in the Lighting Segment (up $44.4 million or 23.5%) and favorably influenced by increased net sales in the Display Solutions Segment (up $95.1 million or 75.1%). The growth can be attributed to continued strengthening demand in the Company’s core markets and from the acquisition of JSI.

Fiscal 2022 operating income of $21.2 million represents a $13.2 million increase from fiscal 2021 operating income of $8.0 million. Current year results include $0.5 million of transaction costs related to the acquisition of JSI. Prior year results were also unfavorably impacted by $2.9 million transaction costs related to the acquisition of JSI. Non-GAAP adjusted operating income in fiscal 2022 of $25.0 million increased $12.0 million or 93% from adjusted fiscal 2021 operating income of $13.0 million. Refer to “Non-GAAP Financial Measures” below for a reconciliation of Non-GAAP financial measures to U.S. GAAP measures. The increase in adjusted operating income was the net result of an increase in net sales, higher-value sales mix resulting from targeted pricing actions, and lower selling and administrative expenses.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures

We believe it is appropriate to evaluate our performance after making adjustments to the as-reported U.S. GAAP operating income, net income, and earnings per share. Adjusted operating income, net income, and earnings per share, which exclude the impact of acquisition costs, stock compensation expense, severance costs and restructuring and plant closure (gains) costs are Non-GAAP financial measures. Also included below are Non-GAAP financial measures including Earnings before Interest, Taxes, Depreciation and Amortization (EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA), Free Cash Flow and Net Debt. We believe that these adjusted supplemental measures are useful in assessing the operating performance of our business. These supplemental measures are used by our management, including our chief operating decision maker, to evaluate business results. We exclude these items because they are not representative of the ongoing results of operations of our business. These Non-GAAP measures may be different from Non-GAAP measures used by other companies. In addition, the Non-GAAP measures are not based on any comprehensive set of accounting rules or principles. Non-GAAP measures have limitations, in that they do not reflect all amounts associated with our results as determined in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Therefore, these measures should only be used to evaluate our results in conjunction with corresponding GAAP measures. Below is a reconciliation of these non-GAAP measures to operating income, net income, and earnings per share for the periods indicated along with the calculation of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA, Free Cash Flow, and Net Debt.

Results of Operations

2022 Compared to 2021         

Lighting Segment
(In thousands)	2022		2021
Net Sales	$	233,449	$	189,000
Gross Profit	$	70,120	$	57,002
Operating Income	$	20,942	$	13,328

Lighting Segment net sales of $233.4 million in fiscal 2022 increased 23.5% from fiscal 2021 net sales of $189.0 million. The sales growth was across all key vertical markets, with significant contributions from new and enhanced products.

Gross profit of $70.1 million in fiscal 2022 increased $13.1 million or 23.0% from fiscal 2021. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales was 30.0% in fiscal 2022 compared to 30.2% in fiscal 2021. Gross profit as a percentage of sales was relatively flat as selling price increase realization offset the majority of rapid cost increases to material input costs and transportation costs.

Operating expenses of $49.2 million in fiscal 2022 increased $5.5 million or 12.6% from fiscal 2021 operating expenses of $43.7 million, primarily driven by higher commission expense as a result of higher sales.

Fiscal 2022 Lighting Segment operating income of $20.9 million increased $7.6 million or 57.1% from operating income of $13.3 million in fiscal 2021 and operating income as a percentage of sales also increased from 7.1 to 9.0%. Both increases were primarily driven by sales volume and price realization..

Display Solutions Segment
(In thousands)	2022		2021
Net Sales	$	221,671	$	126,612
Gross Profit	$	39,076	$	21,989
Operating Income	$	17,589	$	9,864

Display Solutions Segment net sales of $221.7 million in fiscal 2022 increased $95.1 million or 75.1% from fiscal 2021 net sales of $126.6 million. The increase reflects the acquisition of JSI and continued growth in the grocery and quick-service-restaurant markets.

Gross profit of $39.1 million in fiscal 2022 increased $17.1 million or 77.7% from fiscal 2021. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales increased to 17.6% in fiscal 2022 compared from 17.4% in fiscal 2021. Gross profit as a percentage of net sales reflects both the accretive effect of the JSI acquisition and improvements to core business margins, partially offset by the impact of input costs.

Operating expenses of $21.5 million in fiscal 2022 increased $9.4 million or 77.2% from fiscal 2021, primarily driven by the inclusion of 12 months of results for JSI.

Fiscal 2022 Display Solutions Segment operating income of $17.6 million increased $7.7 or 78.3% million from operating income of $9.9 million in fiscal 2021. The increase of $7.7 million was primarily driven by an increase in sales.

Corporate and Eliminations
(In thousands)	2022			2021
Gross (Loss) Profit	$	12		$	(17	)
Operating (Loss)	$	(17,330	)	$	(15,162	)

-28-

The gross profit (loss) relates to the intercompany profit in inventory elimination.

Operating expenses of $17.3 million in fiscal 2022 increased $2.2 million or 14.3% from fiscal 2021. The increase is primarily due an increase in stock compensation expense and incentive plan expenses as the result of improved business performance.

Consolidated Results

We reported $2.0 million net interest expense in fiscal 2022 compared to $0.3 million net interest expense in fiscal 2021. The increase in interest expense from fiscal 2021 to fiscal 2022 is the result of higher levels of debt outstanding on our credit facility which is the result of partially funding of the JSI acquisition. We also recorded other expense/(income) $0.1 and ($0.2) in fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, respectively, related to net foreign exchange currency transaction losses and gains through our Mexican and Canadian subsidiaries.

The $4.1 million of tax expense in fiscal 2022 reflects a consolidated effective tax rate of 21.2%. The $2.0 million of income tax expense in fiscal 2021 represents a consolidated effective tax rate of 25.9%. The effective tax rate in fiscal 2021 was higher as a result of non-deductible transaction costs related to the acquisition of JSI.

We reported net income of $15.0 million in fiscal 2022 compared to net income of $5.9 million in fiscal 2021. Non-GAAP adjusted net income was $18.0 million in fiscal 2022 compared to adjusted net income of $9.8 million in fiscal 2021 (Refer to the Non-GAAP tables above). The increase in Non-GAAP adjusted net income is primarily the result of an increase in net sales. Diluted earnings per share of $0.54 was reported in fiscal 2022 compared to $0.21 diluted earnings per share in fiscal 2021. The weighted average common shares outstanding for purposes of computing diluted earnings per share in fiscal 2022 were 27,993,000 shares compared to 27,440,000 shares in fiscal 2021.

Liquidity and Capital Resources

We consider our level of cash on hand, borrowing capacity, current ratio and working capital levels to be our most important measures of short-term liquidity. For long-term liquidity indicators, we believe our ratio of long-term debt to equity and our historical levels of net cash flows from operating activities to be the most important measures.

At June 30, 2022, we had working capital of $84.3 million, compared to $54.1 million at June 30, 2021. The ratio of current assets to current liabilities was 2.13 to 1 as of June 30, 2022, compared to a ratio of 1.76 to 1 as of June 30, 2021. The $30.2 million increase in working capital from June 30, 2021, to June 30, 2022, is primarily driven by a $15.5 million increase in inventory, a $20.1 million increase in accounts receivable offset by a $1.8 million increase in accounts payable and the $3.8 million current portion of the $25.0 million term loan.

Net accounts receivable were $77.8 million and $57.7 million at June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively. The increase in accounts receivable is due primarily to an increase in sales. DSO was 54 days and 56 days as of June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively. We believe that our receivables are ultimately collectible or recoverable, net of certain reserves, and that aggregate allowances for credit losses are adequate.

Net inventories of $74.4 million at June 30, 2022, increased $15.5 million from $58.9 million at June 30, 2021. The increase of $15.5 million is the primarily the result of an increase in gross inventory of $15.5 million and a negligible increase in obsolescence reserves. Lighting Segment net inventory increased $12.0 million, in anticipation of an increase in market demand and to mitigate escalating supply chain challenges in the first half of fiscal 2022. Net inventory in the Display Solutions Segment increased $3.5 million to support several on-going programs.

Cash generated from operations and borrowing capacity under our credit facility is our primary source of liquidity. In September 2021, we amended our previous $100 million secured line of credit, to a $25 million term loan and the remaining $75 million as a secured revolving line of credit. Both facilities expire in the third quarter of fiscal 2026. As of June 30, 2022, $17.7 million of the line of credit was available. As of June 30, 2022, we are in compliance with all of our loan covenants. We believe that our $100 million credit facility plus cash flows from operating activities are adequate for operational and capital expenditure needs for the next 12 months. We have on file with the SEC a shelf registration statement which allows us to sell any combination of common stock, preferred stock warrants, senior or subordinated debt securities or other securities in one or more offerings if we choose to do so in the future.

We used $3.8 million of cash from operating activities in fiscal 2022 compared to a source of cash of $28.0 million in fiscal 2021. The $31.8 million decrease in net cash flows from operating activity is the result of increases in inventory and accounts receivable and decreases in accrued expense and customer prepayments, partially offset by improved earnings and an increase in accounts payable.

-29-

We used $1.6 million of cash from investing activities in fiscal 2022 compared to a use of cash of $93.0 million in fiscal 2021. Capital expenditures were approximately $2.0 million in both fiscal years. The primary difference between cash flow from investing activities is the acquisition of JSI. 

We had a source of cash of $5.6 million related to financing activities in fiscal 2022 compared to a source of cash of $63.6 million in fiscal 2021. The $58.0 million change in cash flow was the net result of an increase in the borrowings on the line of credit to support the growth in working capital and due to the acquisition of JSI. Most of the growth in working capital can be attributed to the increase in inventory to ensure product availability for critical sales growth initiatives and to mitigate supply chain challenges.

We have on our balance sheet financial instruments consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents, revolving lines of credit, and long-term debt. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value because of their short-term maturity and/or variable, market-driven interest rates.

Off-Balance Sheet Arrangements

We have no financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk.

Cash Dividends

In August 2022, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share payable September 6, 2022, to shareholders of record as of August 29, 2022. The indicated annual cash dividend rate for fiscal 2022 was $0.20 per share. The Board of Directors has adopted a policy regarding dividends which indicates that dividends will be determined by the Board of Directors at its discretion based upon its evaluation of earnings, cash flow requirements, financial conditions, debt levels, stock repurchases, future business developments and opportunities, and other factors deemed relevant.

Critical Accounting Policies and Use of Estimates

We have adopted various accounting policies to prepare the consolidated financial statements in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Our significant accounting policies are described in Note 1. "Summary if Significant accounting Policies" of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements. Some of those significant accounting policies require us to make difficult, subjective, or complex judgments or estimates. An accounting estimate is considered to be critical if it meets both of the following criteria: (i) the estimate requires assumptions about matters that are highly uncertain at the time the accounting estimate is made, and (ii) different estimates reasonably could have been used, or changes in the estimate that are reasonably likely to occur may have a material impact on our financial condition or results of operations. The significant accounting policies that management believes are critical to the understanding and evaluating our reported financial results include the following: income taxes, warranty, goodwill and intangible assets, stock-based compensation, and revenue recognition. For further information see Note 1. “Summary of Significant accounting Policies " of the Notes to Consolidated Financial Statements in this Annual Report on Form 10-K

Warranty Reserves:

The Company offers a limited warranty that its products are free from defects in workmanship and materials.  The specific terms and conditions vary somewhat by product line, but generally cover defective products returned within one to five years, with some exceptions where the terms extend to 10 years, from the date of shipment. The Company records warranty liabilities to cover the estimated future costs for repair or replacement of defective returned products as well as products that need to be repaired or replaced in the field after installation. The Company calculates its liability for warranty claims by applying estimates based upon historical claims as a percentage of sales to cover unknown claims, as well as estimating the total amount to be incurred for known warranty issues. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amount as necessary. If actual warranty costs differ significantly from these estimates, adjustments may be required in the future, which could adversely affect our gross profit and results of operations.

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies the performance obligation in its customer contracts or purchase orders. Most of the Company’s products have a single performance obligation which is satisfied at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer. Control is generally transferred at time of shipment when title and risk of ownership passes to the customer. For customer contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price and any discounts to each performance obligation based on relative standalone selling prices. Payment terms are typically within 30 to 90 days from the shipping date, depending on the terms with the customer. The Company offers standard warranties that do not represent separate performance obligations. Provisions for discounts, rebates, sales incentives, returns, and other adjustments are generally provided for in the period the related sales are recorded, based on management’s assessment of historical trends and projection of future results.

-30-

Goodwill and Intangible Assets:

Goodwill represents the excess of purchase price over the fair value of the net assets of businesses acquired. The carrying values of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed at least annually for possible impairment. The Company may first assess qualitative factors in order to determine if goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired. If through the qualitative assessment it is determined that it is more likely than not that goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are not impaired, no further testing is required. If it is determined more likely than not that goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are impaired, or if the Company elects not to first assess qualitative factors, the Company’s impairment testing continues with the estimation of the fair value of the reporting unit using a combination of a market approach and an income (discounted cash flow) approach, at the reporting unit level. The estimation of the fair value of reporting unit requires significant management judgment with respect to revenue and expense growth rates, changes in working capital and the selection and use of an appropriate discount rate. The estimates of the fair value of reporting units are based on the best information available as of the date of the assessment. The use of different assumptions would increase or decrease estimated discounted future operating cash flows and could increase or decrease an impairment charge. Company management uses its judgment in assessing whether assets may have become impaired between annual impairment tests. Indicators such as adverse business conditions, economic factors and technological change or competitive activities may signal that an asset has become impaired. The Company relies upon a number of factors, judgments and estimates when conducting its impairment testing including, but not limited to, the Company’s stock price, operating results, forecasts, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and judgments in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment.

Income Tax Valuation Allowances:

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting guidance for income taxes.  Accordingly, deferred income taxes are provided on items that are reported as either income or expense in different time periods for financial reporting purposes than they are for income tax purposes. Deferred income tax assets are reported on the Company’s balance sheet. Significant management judgment is required in developing the Company’s income tax provision, including the estimation of taxable income and the effective income tax rates in the multiple taxing jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the estimation of the liability for uncertain income tax positions, the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances that might be required against deferred tax assets. Changes in the expectations regarding the realization of deferred tax assets and any related valuation allowances, the development of the Company’s income tax provision, and the estimation of the liability for uncertain tax positions, could materially impact income tax expense in future periods.

Stock-Based Compensation:

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to certain employees and its directors in accordance with accounting guidance for stock-based compensation. The accounting guidance requires companies to measure the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including stock options, restricted stock units, and performance stock units, based on the grant date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Equity award forfeitures are recognized at the date of employee termination. If any of the assumptions used in the Black-Scholes pricing model changes significantly, stock-based compensation expense may differ materially in the future from that recorded in the current period

MANAGEMENT’S REPORT ON INTERNAL CONTROL OVER FINANCIAL REPORTING

The Management of LSI Industries Inc. and subsidiaries (the “Company” or “LSI”) is responsible for the preparation and accuracy of the financial statements and other information included in this report. LSI’s Management is also responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Securities Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f). Under the supervision and with the participation of Management, including LSI’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer, the Company conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022, based on the criteria set forth in “the 2013 Internal Control – Integrated Framework” issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission.

A control system, no matter how well conceived and operated, can provide only reasonable assurance that the objectives of the control system are met. Because of the inherent limitations in all control systems, no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, have been detected. These inherent limitations include the reality that judgments in decision making can be faulty, the possibility of human error, and the circumvention or overriding of the controls and procedures.

In meeting its responsibility for the reliability of the financial statements, the Company depends upon its system of internal accounting controls. The system is designed to provide reasonable assurance that assets are safeguarded and that transactions are properly authorized and recorded. The system is supported by policies and guidelines, and by careful selection and training of financial management personnel. The Company also has a Disclosure Controls Committee, whose responsibility is to help ensure appropriate disclosures and presentation of the financial statements and notes thereto. Additionally, the Company has an Internal Audit Department to assist in monitoring compliance with financial policies and procedures.

The Board of Directors meets its responsibility for overview of the Company’s financial statements through its Audit Committee which is composed entirely of independent Directors who are not employees of the Company. The Audit Committee meets periodically with Management and Internal Audit to review and assess the activities of each in meeting their respective responsibilities. Grant Thornton LLP has full access to the Audit Committee to discuss the results of their audit work, the adequacy of internal accounting controls, and the quality of financial reporting.

Based upon LSI’s evaluation, the Company’s principal executive officer and principal financial officer concluded that internal control over financial reporting was effective as of June 30, 2022. We reviewed the results of Management’s assessment with the Audit Committee of our Board of Directors. Additionally, our independent registered public accounting firm audited and independently assessed the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting. Grant Thornton LLP, an independent registered public accounting firm, has issued an opinion on the effectiveness of the Company’s internal control over financial reporting, which is presented in the financial statements.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Shareholders

LSI Industries Inc.

Opinion on internal control over financial reporting

We have audited the internal control over financial reporting of LSI Industries Inc. (an Ohio Corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2022, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”). In our opinion, the Company maintained, in all material respects, effective internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by COSO.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the consolidated financial statements of the Company as of and for the year ended June 30, 2022, and our report dated September 9, 2022 expressed an unqualified opinion on those financial statements.

Basis for opinion

The Company’s management is responsible for maintaining effective internal control over financial reporting and for its assessment of the effectiveness of internal control over financial reporting, included in the accompanying Management’s Report on Internal Control Over Financial Reporting. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s internal control over financial reporting based on our audit. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audit in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether effective internal control over financial reporting was maintained in all material respects. Our audit included obtaining an understanding of internal control over financial reporting, assessing the risk that a material weakness exists, testing and evaluating the design and operating effectiveness of internal control based on the assessed risk, and performing such other procedures as we considered necessary in the circumstances. We believe that our audit provides a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Definition and limitations of internal control over financial reporting

A company’s internal control over financial reporting is a process designed to provide reasonable assurance regarding the reliability of financial reporting and the preparation of financial statements for external purposes in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles. A company’s internal control over financial reporting includes those policies and procedures that (1) pertain to the maintenance of records that, in reasonable detail, accurately and fairly reflect the transactions and dispositions of the assets of the company; (2) provide reasonable assurance that transactions are recorded as necessary to permit preparation of financial statements in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles, and that receipts and expenditures of the company are being made only in accordance with authorizations of management and directors of the company; and (3) provide reasonable assurance regarding prevention or timely detection of unauthorized acquisition, use, or disposition of the company’s assets that could have a material effect on the financial statements.

Because of its inherent limitations, internal control over financial reporting may not prevent or detect misstatements. Also, projections of any evaluation of effectiveness to future periods are subject to the risk that controls may become inadequate because of changes in conditions, or that the degree of compliance with the policies or procedures may deteriorate.

REPORT OF INDEPENDENT REGISTERED PUBLIC ACCOUNTING FIRM

Board of Directors and Shareholders

LSI Industries Inc.

Opinion on the financial statements

We have audited the accompanying consolidated balance sheets of LSI Industries Inc. (an Ohio corporation) and subsidiaries (the “Company”) as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, the related consolidated statements of operations, comprehensive income, shareholders’ equity, and cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2022, and the related notes and financial statement schedule included under Item 15(a) (collectively referred to as the “financial statements”). In our opinion, the financial statements present fairly, in all material respects, the financial position of the Company as of June 30, 2022 and 2021, and the results of its operations and its cash flows for each of the two years in the period ended June 30, 2022, in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America.

We also have audited, in accordance with the standards of the Public Company Accounting Oversight Board (United States) (“PCAOB”), the Company’s internal control over financial reporting as of June 30, 2022, based on criteria established in the 2013 Internal Control—Integrated Framework issued by the Committee of Sponsoring Organizations of the Treadway Commission (“COSO”), and our report dated September 9, 2022 expressed unqualified opinion.

Basis for opinion

These financial statements are the responsibility of the Company’s management. Our responsibility is to express an opinion on the Company’s financial statements based on our audits. We are a public accounting firm registered with the PCAOB and are required to be independent with respect to the Company in accordance with the U.S. federal securities laws and the applicable rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and the PCAOB.

We conducted our audits in accordance with the standards of the PCAOB. Those standards require that we plan and perform the audit to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the financial statements are free of material misstatement, whether due to error or fraud. Our audits included performing procedures to assess the risks of material misstatement of the financial statements, whether due to error or fraud, and performing procedures that respond to those risks. Such procedures included examining, on a test basis, evidence regarding the amounts and disclosures in the financial statements. Our audits also included evaluating the accounting principles used and significant estimates made by management, as well as evaluating the overall presentation of the financial statements. We believe that our audits provide a reasonable basis for our opinion.

Critical audit matter

The critical audit matter communicated below is a matter arising from the current period audit of the financial statements that was communicated or required to be communicated to the audit committee and that: (1) relates to accounts or disclosures that are material to the financial statements and (2) involved our especially challenging, subjective, or complex judgments. The communication of the critical audit matter does not alter in any way our opinion on the financial statements, taken as a whole, and we are not, by communicating the critical audit matter below, providing a separate opinion on the critical audit matter or on the accounts or disclosures to which it relates.

Estimation of product warranty reserves

As described further in note 1 to the financial statements, the Company provides warranty terms based upon the type of product sold. The Company estimates the amount of warranty costs associated with future product warranty claims, which are accrued at the time revenue is recognized. The estimate of the likelihood and cost of future claims considers various factors, including historical warranty costs, warranty terms, current trends, product mix and sales. The Company’s product warranty accrual as of June 30, 2022 was $4.5 million.

The principal considerations for our determination that the estimation of product warranty reserves is a critical audit matter is due to a higher risk of estimation uncertainty related to the determination of the likelihood and cost of future claims. The evaluation of the warranty accrual required a high degree of auditor judgement and an increased effort in assessing the reasonableness of management’s estimates of the likelihood and cost of future claims.

Our audit procedures related to the estimation of product warranty reserves included the following, among others:

●     Tested management’s internal controls over the Company’s product warranty accrual process including controls over the inputs to the estimate as well as controls over the process of capturing warranty claims

●     Tested the completeness and accuracy of the underlying claims used to develop the estimate

●     Evaluated the relevance, reliability, and sufficiency of the sources of claims used by the Company in developing the estimate

●     Evaluated the methods and assumptions used by management by:

o     Developing an estimation for the warranty accrual and comparing the results to the Company’s product warranty accrual estimate

o     Utilized retrospective warranty claim and lag data to evaluate the warranty reserve estimated by management

We have served as the Company’s auditor since 2009.

NOTES TO CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LSI Industries Inc. (an Ohio corporation) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), all of which are wholly owned. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies the performance obligation in its customer contracts or purchase orders. Most of the Company’s products have a single performance obligation which is satisfied at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer. Control is generally transferred at time of shipment when title and risk of ownership passes to the customer. For customer contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price and any discounts to each performance obligation based on relative standalone selling prices. Payment terms are typically within 30 to 90 days from the shipping date, depending on the terms with the customer. The Company offers standard warranties that do not represent separate performance obligations.

Installation is a separate performance obligation, except for the Company’s digital signage products. For digital signage products, installation is not a separate performance obligation as the product and installation is the combined item promised in digital signage contracts. The Company is not always responsible for installation of products it sells and has no post-installation responsibilities other than standard warranties.

A number of the Company's display solutions and select lighting products are customized for specific customers. As a result, these customized products do not have an alternative use. For these products, the Company has a legal right to payment for performance to date and generally does not accept returns on these items. The measurement of performance is based upon cost plus a reasonable profit margin for work completed. Because there is no alternative use and there is a legal right to payment, the Company transfers control of the item as the item is being produced and therefore, recognizes revenue over time. The customized product types are as follows:

● Customer specific branded print graphics

● Electrical components based on customer specifications

● Digital signage and related media content

The Company also offers installation services for its display solutions elements and select lighting products. Installation revenue is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided through the installation process.

For these customized products and installation services, revenue is recognized using a cost-based input method: recognizing revenue and gross profit as work is performed based on the relationship between the actual cost incurred and the total estimated cost for the performance obligation.

On occasion, the Company enters into bill-and-hold arrangements on a limited basis. Each bill-and-hold arrangement is reviewed and revenue is recognized only when certain criteria have been met: (1) the customer has requested delayed delivery and storage of the products by the Company because the customer wants to secure a supply of the products but lacks storage space; (ii) the risk of ownership has passed to the customer; (iii) the products are segregated from the Company’s other inventory items held for sale; (iv) the products are ready for shipment to the customer; and (v) the Company does not have the ability to use the products or direct them to another customer.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company disaggregates the revenue from contracts with customers by the timing of revenue recognition because the Company believes it best depicts the nature, amount, and timing of its revenue and cash flows. The table below presents a reconciliation of the disaggregation by reportable segments:

Practical Expedients and Exemptions

● The Company’s contracts with customers have an expected duration of one year or less, as such, the Company applies the practical expedient to expense sales commissions as incurred and has omitted disclosures on the amount of remaining performance obligations.

● Shipping costs that are not material in context of the delivery of products are expensed as incurred.

● The Company’s accounts receivable balance represents the Company’s unconditional right to receive payment from its customers with contracts. Payments are generally due within 30 to 90 days of completion of the performance obligation and invoicing; therefore, payments do not contain significant financing components.

● The Company collects sales tax and other taxes concurrent with revenue-producing activities which are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfillment activities and included in cost of products and services sold on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Credit and Collections:

The Company maintains allowances for credit losses for probable estimated losses resulting from either customer disputes or the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make the required payments, the Company may be required to record additional allowances or charges against income. The Company determines its allowance for credit losses by first considering all known collectability problems of customers’ accounts, and then applying certain percentages against the various aging categories based on the due date of the remaining receivables. The resulting allowance for credit losses is an estimate based upon the Company’s knowledge of its business and customer base, the current economic climate and historical trends. Receivables deemed uncollectable are written-off against the allowance for credit losses after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted. The Company also establishes allowances, at the time revenue is recognized, for returns, discounts, pricing and other possible customer deductions. These allowances are based upon historical trends. The following table presents the Company’s net accounts receivable at the dates indicated.

(In thousands)	June 30, 2022			June 30, 2021
Accounts receivable	$	78,249		$	57,941
Less: Allowance for credit losses		(499	)		(256	)
Accounts receivable, net	$	77,750		$	57,685

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The cash balance includes cash and cash equivalents which have original maturities of less than three months. Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of bank deposits and a bank money market account that is stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company maintains balances at financial institutions in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. In the United States, the FDIC limit for insurance coverage on non-interest-bearing accounts is $250,000 per institution. As of June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, the Company had bank balances of $2.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively, without insurance coverage.

Inventories, Net:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost of inventories includes the cost of purchased raw materials and purchased components, direct labor, as well as manufacturing overhead which is generally applied to inventory based on direct labor and on material content, is determined on the first-in, first-out basis.

The Company maintains an inventory reserve for obsolete and excess inventory. The Company first determines its obsolete inventory reserve by considering specific known obsolete items, and then by applying certain percentages to specific inventory categories based upon inventory turns. The Company uses various tools, in addition to inventory turns, to identify which inventory items have the potential to become obsolete. Judgment is used to establish excess and obsolete inventory reserves and management adjusts these reserves as more information becomes available about the ultimate disposition of the inventory item.  

Property, Plant and Equipment and Related Depreciation:

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Major additions and betterments are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are expensed. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Buildings (in years)	28	-	40
Machinery and equipment (in years)	3	-	10
Computer software (in years)	3	-	8

Costs related to the purchase, internal development, and implementation of the Company’s fully integrated enterprise resource planning/business operating software system are either capitalized or expensed. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of fifteen years or the remaining term of the lease.

The Company recorded $5.3 million and $5.2 million of depreciation expense in the years ended June 30, 2022, and 2021 respectively.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets consisting of customer relationships, trade names and trademarks, patents, technology and software are recorded on the Company's balance sheet. The definite-lived intangible assets are being amortized to expense over periods ranging between five and twenty years. The Company evaluates definite-lived intangible assets for possible impairment when triggering events are identified. Neither indefinite-lived intangible assets nor the excess of cost over fair value of assets acquired ("goodwill") are amortized, however, they are subject to review for impairment. See additional information about goodwill and intangible assets in Note 7.

Fair Value:

The Company has financial instruments consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents, revolving lines of credit, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and long-term debt. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value because of their short-term maturity and/or variable, market-driven interest rates. The Company has no financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk.

Fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities are primarily used in goodwill and other intangible asset impairment analyses, long-lived asset impairment analyses and valuation of acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The accounting guidance on fair value measurement was used to measure the fair value of these nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities.

Product Warranties:

The Company offers a limited warranty that its products are free from defects in workmanship and materials.  The specific terms and conditions vary somewhat by product line, but generally cover defective products returned within one to five years, with some exceptions where the terms extend to 10 years, from the date of shipment. The Company records warranty liabilities to cover the estimated future costs for repair or replacement of defective returned products as well as products that need to be repaired or replaced in the field after installation. The Company calculates its liability for warranty claims by applying estimates based upon historical claims as a percentage of sales to cover unknown claims, as well as estimating the total amount to be incurred for known warranty issues. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amount as necessary.

Changes in the Company’s warranty liabilities, which are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, during the periods indicated below were as follows:

Product Warranties
(In thousands)	June 30, 2022			June 30, 2021
Balance at beginning of the period	$	5,295		$	6,956
Additions from company acquired		-			248
Additions charged to expense		2,960			859
Deductions for repairs and replacements		(3,764	)		(2,768	)
Balance at end of the period	$	4,491		$	5,295

Employee Benefit Plans:

The Company has a 401(k) retirement plan whereby employee’s contributions to the 401(k) are matched by the Company. The 401(k) match program covers substantially all of its employees. The Company also has a nonqualified deferred compensation plan covering certain employees. The costs of employee benefit plans are charged to expense and funded annually. Total costs were $2.9 million and $1.4 million in June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Research and Development Costs:

Research and development costs are directly attributable to new product development, including the development of new technology for both existing and new products, and consist of salaries, payroll taxes, employee benefits, materials, outside legal costs and filing fees related to obtaining patents, supplies, depreciation, and other administrative costs. The Company expenses as research and development all costs associated with development of software used in solid-state LED products. All costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling and administrative expenses. Research and development costs related to both product and software development totaled $3.6 million and $3.7 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Cost of Products and Services Sold:

Cost of products sold is primarily comprised of direct materials and supplies consumed in the manufacture of products, as well as manufacturing labor, depreciation expense and direct overhead expense necessary to acquire and convert the purchased materials and supplies into finished product. Cost of products sold also includes the cost to distribute products to customers, inbound freight costs, internal transfer costs, warehousing costs and other shipping and handling activity. Cost of services sold is primarily comprised of the internal and external labor costs required to support the Company’s installation and service revenue along with the management of media content.

Stock-Based Compensation:

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to certain employees and its directors in accordance with accounting guidance for stock-based compensation. The accounting guidance requires companies to measure the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including stock options, restricted stock units, and performance stock unites, based on the grant date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Equity award forfeitures are recognized at the date of employee termination.

Earnings Per Common Share:

The computation of basic earnings per common share is based on the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period net of treasury shares held in the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan. The computation of diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period and includes common share equivalents. Common share equivalents include the dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock units, contingently issuable shares and common shares to be issued under a deferred compensation plan, all of which totaled 1,375,000 shares and 1,029,000 shares in fiscal 2022 and 2021, respectively. See further discussion in Note 4.

Income Taxes:

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting guidance for income taxes.  Accordingly, deferred income taxes are provided on items that are reported as either income or expense in different time periods for financial reporting purposes than they are for income tax purposes. Deferred income tax assets are reported on the Company’s balance sheet. Significant management judgment is required in developing the Company’s income tax provision, including the estimation of taxable income and the effective income tax rates in the multiple taxing jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the estimation of the liability for uncertain income tax positions, the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances that might be required against deferred tax assets.

Foreign Exchange:

The functional currency of the Company’s Mexican subsidiary is the Mexican Peso and the functional currency of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian Dollar. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated using period end exchange rates. Revenue and expenses are translated using average exchange rates during each period reported. Translation losses (gains) are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss (gain) as a component of shareholders equity and was nominal as of June 30, 2022, and ($0.1) million as of June 30, 2021. The Company recognizes foreign currency transaction (gains) and losses on certain assets and liabilities that are denominated in the Mexican Peso and Canadian Dollar. These transaction (gains) and losses are reported in other expense in the consolidated statements of operations and were $0.1 million and ($0.2) million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

New Accounting Pronouncements:

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers,” creating an exception to the recognition and measurement principles in ASC 805. The amendment requires that entities apply ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” rather than using fair value, to recognize and measure contracts assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, regardless of whether a business combination occurs in that period. The guidance should be applied prospectively; however, an entity that elects to early adopt in an interim period should apply the amendments to all business combinations that occurred during the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company is evaluating the impact this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

On July 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" (ASC 326 or "CECL"), which amended the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses rather than incurred losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2020 and January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” and ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform: Scope,” respectively. Together, the ASUs provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This guidance is effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2019-12, "Income Taxes - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740)." This guidance removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 such as recognizing deferred taxes for equity investments, the incremental approach to performing intra-period tax allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The standard also simplifies accounting for income taxes under U.S. GAAP by clarifying and amending existing guidance, including the recognition of deferred taxes for goodwill, the allocation of taxes to members of a consolidated group and requiring that an entity reflect the effect of enacted changes in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The Company adopted ASC 2019-12 effective July 1, 2021, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Subsequent Events:

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date the consolidated financial statements were filed. No items were identified during this evaluation that required adjustment to or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

NOTE 2 — ACQUISITION OF JSI STORE FIXTURES

On  May 21, 2021, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of JSI Store Fixtures (JSI), a Maine-based provider of retail commercial display solutions, for $94.3 million. The acquisition of JSI expands the Company’s total addressable markets within the grocery and refueling and convenience store verticals. The Company funded the acquisition with a combination of cash on hand and $71.6 million from the credit facility

The Company accounted for this transaction as a business combination. The Company preliminarily allocated the purchase price of approximately $93.7 million, which included an estimate of customary post-closing purchase price adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at estimated fair values, and the excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair values was recorded as goodwill. During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, goodwill increased by $0.6 million. The increase is the net difference between the original estimate of recovery from the pre-funded working capital and the final cash received of $0.5 million. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, goodwill, deferred income taxes, and current tax liabilities were adjusted related to the finalization of pre-acquisition tax filings. The final allocation of the purchase consideration to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of  May 21, 2021, is as follows:

	May 21, 2021 as initially reported			Adjustments			May 21, 2021 as adjusted
Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	4,067					$	4,067
Account Receivable		9,252			(280	)		8,972
Inventories		9,898						9,898
Property, Plant and Equipment		7,076						7,076
Other Assets		7,440			(2,062	)		5,378
Intangible Assets		45,760						45,760
Accounts Payable		(4,199	)					(4,199	)
Accrued Liabilities		(8,434	)		(225	)		(8,659	)
Deferred Tax Liability		(10,583	)		1,925			(8,658	)
Identifiable Net Assets		60,277			(642	)		59,635
Goodwill		33,415			1,242			34,657
Net Purchase Consideration	$	93,692		$	600		$	94,292

The gross amount of accounts receivable is $9.3 million.

Goodwill recorded from the acquisition of JSI is attributable to the impact of the positive cash flow from JSI in addition to expected synergies from the business combination. The intangible assets include amounts recognized for the fair value of the trade name, technology assets, non-compete agreements and customer relationships. The fair value of the intangible assets was determined based upon the income (discounted cash flow) approach. The following table presents the details of the intangible assets acquired at the date of acquisition

- 47-

 

	Estimated		Estimated Useful
(In thousands)	Fair Value		Life (Years)
Tradename	$	8,680	Indefinite life
Technology asset		4,900		7
Non-compete		260		5
Customer relationship		31,920		20
	$	45,760

The fair market value write-up of the property, plant, and equipment totaled $1.8 million. Transaction costs related to the acquisition totaled $2.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

JSI’s post-acquisition results of operations for the period from May 21, 2021, through June 30, 2021, are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Since the acquisition date, net sales of JSI for the period from May 21, 2021, through June 30, 2021, were $9.1 million and operating income was $0.7 million. The operating results of JSI are included in the Display Solutions Segment.

Pro Forma Impact of the Acquisition of JSI (unaudited)

The following table represents unaudited pro forma results of operations and gives effect to the acquisition of JSI as if the transaction had occurred on  July 1, 2019. The unaudited pro forma results of operations have been prepared for comparative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of what would have occurred had the business combination been completed at the beginning of the period or the results that  may occur in the future. Furthermore, the unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect the impact of any synergies or operating efficiencies resulting from the acquisition of JSI.

The unaudited pro forma financial information for the twelve months ended  June 30, 2021, and  June 30, 2020, is prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and has been adjusted to give effect to the pro forma events that are: (1) directly attributable to the acquisition; (2) factually supportable; and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma operating income of $19.3 million for fiscal 2021 excludes acquisition-related expenses of $2.9 million.

NOTE 3 — BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

The accounting guidance on Segment Reporting establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information of those segments to be presented in financial statements. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise for which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or “CODM”) in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s two operating segments are Lighting and Display Solutions (formerly known as the Graphics Segment), with one executive team under the organizational structure reporting directly to the CODM with responsibilities for managing each segment. Corporate and Eliminations, which captures the Company’s corporate administrative activities, is also reported in the segment information.

The Lighting Segment includes non-residential outdoor and indoor lighting fixtures utilizing LED light sources that have been fabricated and assembled for the Company’s markets, primarily the refueling and convenience store markets, parking lot and garage markets, quick-service restaurant market, retail and grocery store markets, the automotive market, the warehouse market, and the sports court and field market. The Company also offers a variety of lighting controls to complement its lighting fixtures which include sensors, photocontrols, dimmers, motion detection and Bluetooth systems. The Company also services lighting product customers through the commercial and industrial project, stock and flow, and renovation channels. The Lighting Segment also includes the design, engineering and manufacturing of electronic circuit boards, assemblies and sub-assemblies which are sold directly to customers.

- 48-

 

The Company acquired JSI in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, and consolidated it into the former Graphics Segment, which has been rebranded as the Display Solutions Segment, to more closely align the Company’s comprehensive product offering with the markets it serves. The Display Solutions Segment manufactures, sells and installs exterior and interior visual image and display elements, including printed graphics, structural graphics, digital signage, menu board systems, display fixtures, refrigerated displays, and custom display elements. These products are used in visual image programs in several markets including the refueling and convenience store markets, parking lot and garage markets, quick-service restaurant market, retail and grocery store markets, the automotive market, the warehouse market, and the sports court and field market. The Display Solutions Segment also provides a variety of project management services to complement our display elements, such as installation management, site surveys, permitting, and content management which are offered to our customers to support our digital signage.

The Company’s corporate administration activities are reported in the Corporate and Eliminations line item. These activities primarily include intercompany profit in inventory eliminations, expense related to certain corporate officers and support staff, the Company’s internal audit staff, expense related to the Company’s Board of Directors, equity compensation expense for various equity awards granted to corporate administration employees, certain consulting expenses, investor relations activities, and a portion of the Company’s legal, auditing, and professional fee expenses. Corporate identifiable assets primarily consist of cash, invested cash (if any), refundable income taxes (if any), and deferred income taxes.

There were no customers or customer programs representing a concentration of 10% or more of the Company’s net sales in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022. There was no concentration of accounts receivable at June 30, 2022, or 2021.One customer program in the Display Solutions Segment represents $35.2 million or 11.2% of the Company’s net sales in the fiscal year ended June 30, 2021.

NOTE 7 — GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The carrying values of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed at least annually for possible impairment. The Company  may first assess qualitative factors in order to determine if goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired. If through the qualitative assessment it is determined that it is more likely than not that goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are not impaired, no further testing is required. If it is determined more likely than not that goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are impaired, or if the Company elects not to first assess qualitative factors, the Company’s impairment testing continues with the estimation of the fair value of the reporting unit using a combination of a market approach and an income (discounted cash flow) approach, at the reporting unit level. The estimation of the fair value of reporting unit requires significant management judgment with respect to revenue and expense growth rates, changes in working capital and the selection and use of an appropriate discount rate. The estimates of the fair value of reporting units are based on the best information available as of the date of the assessment. The use of different assumptions would increase or decrease estimated discounted future operating cash flows and could increase or decrease an impairment charge. Company management uses its judgment in assessing whether assets  may have become impaired between annual impairment tests. Indicators such as adverse business conditions, economic factors and technological change or competitive activities  may signal that an asset has become impaired.

The Company identified its reporting units in conjunction with its annual goodwill impairment testing. Following the acquisition of JSI, the Company has a total of three reporting units that contain goodwill. One reporting unit is within the Lighting Segment and two reporting units are within the Display Solutions Segment. The tradename intangible assets have an indefinite life and are also tested separately on an annual basis. The Company relies upon a number of factors, judgments and estimates when conducting its impairment testing including, but not limited to, the Company’s stock price, operating results, forecasts, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and judgments in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment.

- 52-

 

Fiscal 2022:

As of  March 1, 2022, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test on the three reporting units that contain goodwill. The goodwill impairment test of the reporting unit in the Lighting Segment passed with a business enterprise value of $31.6 million or 18% above the carrying value of the reporting unit including goodwill. The goodwill impairment test of one reporting unit with goodwill in the Display Solutions Segment passed with an estimated business enterprise value of $12.2 million or 1,316% above the carrying value of the reporting unit including goodwill. The goodwill impairment test of the second reporting unit with goodwill in the Display Solutions Segment passed with an estimated business enterprise value of $100.4 million or 12% above the carrying value of the reporting unit including goodwill.

NOTE 8 — REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT AND LONG-TERM DEBT

The Company’s long-term debt as of June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, consisted of the following:

(In thousands)	June 30, 2022		June 30, 2021
Secured line of credit	$	57,275	$	68,178

Less: amounts due within one year		3,571		-
Total amounts due after one year, net	$	76,025	$	68,178

In September 2021, the Company amended its existing $100 million secured line of credit, to a $25 million term loan and $75 million remaining as a secured revolving line of credit. Both facilities expire in the third quarter of fiscal 2026. The principal of the term loan is repaid annually in the amount of $3.6 million over a five-year period with a balloon payment of the remaining balance due on the last month. Interest on both the revolving line of credit and the term loan is charged based upon an increment over the LIBOR rate or a base rate, at the Company’s option. The base rate is calculated as the highest of (a) the Prime rate, (b) the sum of the Overnight Funding Rate plus 50 basis points and (c) the sum of the Daily LIBOR Rate plus 100 basis points as long as a Daily LIBOR rate is offered, ascertainable and not unlawful. The increment over the LIBOR borrowing rate fluctuates between 100 and 225 basis points, and the increment over the Base Rate fluctuates between 0 and 125 basis points, both of which depend upon the ratio of indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), as defined in the line of credit agreement. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s borrowing rate against its revolving line of credit was 3.7%. The increment over LIBOR borrowing rate will be 175 basis points for the second quarter of fiscal 2023. The fee on the unused balance of the $75 million committed line of credit fluctuates between 15 and 25 basis points. Under the terms of this line of credit, the Company has agreed to a negative pledge of real estate assets and is required to comply with financial covenants that limit the ratio of indebtedness to EBITDA and require a minimum fixed charge ratio. As of June 30, 2022, there was $17.7 million available for borrowing under the $75 million line of credit.

NOTE 9 — CASH DIVIDENDS

The Company paid cash dividends of $5.3 million in fiscal years 2022 and 2021. Dividends on restricted stock units in the amount of $0.2 million and $0.1 million were accrued as of June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively. These dividends are paid upon the vesting of the restricted stock units when shares are issued to the award recipients. In August 2022, the Board of Directors declared a regular quarterly cash dividend of $0.05 per share payable September 6, 2022, to shareholders of record August 29, 2022.

NOTE 10 — EQUITY COMPENSATION

In November 2019, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2019 Omnibus Award Plan (“2019 Omnibus Plan”). The purpose of the 2019 Omnibus Plan is to provide a means through which the Company may attract and retain key personnel and to provide a means by which directors, officers, and employees can acquire and maintain an equity interest in the Company. The 2019 Omnibus Plan replaced the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (“2012 Stock Plan”). The number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2019 Omnibus Plan is 2,650,000 which were combined with the remaining shares available under the 2012 Stock Plan. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2019 Omnibus Plan is 1,411,321 shares, all of which are available for future grant or award as of June 30, 2022. The Plan contains a fungible share ratio that consumes 2.5 available shares for every full value share awarded by the Company as stock compensation. The 2019 Omnibus Plan allows for the grant of non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units (RSU’s), performance stock units (PSU’s), and other stock-based awards. The Company also awards Inducement awards are granted by the Company to attract and retain key executives. Inducement awards are separately registered securities and are not part of the 2019 Omnibus Plan.

In fiscal 2022, 146,281 RSUs and 190,980 PSUs were granted. In fiscal 2021, 75,000 inducement options, 30,626 RSUs and 122,509 PSUs were granted.

Stock Options

The fair value of each option on the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following table summarizes the weighted-average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the stock options granted in the periods indicated. There were no options granted in fiscal 2022.

Stock Options
	2022		2021
Dividend yield		-		2.9	%
Expected volatility		-		50	%
Risk-free interest rate		-		0.3	%
Expected life (in years)		-		6.0
Fair value per share		-	$	2.40

Stock option expense is recorded on a straight-line basis, or sooner if the grantee is retirement eligible as defined in the 2019 Omnibus Plan, net of forfeitures. The forfeiture rate is based on historical rates and reduces the compensation expense recognized. The expected volatility of the Company’s stock was calculated based upon the historic monthly fluctuation in stock price for a period approximating the expected life of option grants. The risk-free interest rate is the rate of a five-year Treasury security at constant, fixed maturity on the approximate date of the stock option grant. The expected life of outstanding options is determined to be less than the contractual term for a period equal to the aggregate group of option holders’ estimated weighted average time within which options will be exercised. It is the Company’s policy that when stock options are exercised, new common shares shall be issued.    

Service-based options have a three-year ratable vesting period beginning one year after the date of grant. Inducement stock options have a term of ten years only if the employee is employed for three years from the date of grant. The maximum exercise period of service-based and performance-based stock options granted under the 2019 Omnibus Plan is ten years. There were no service - based or inducement stock options awarded in fiscal 2022.

The Company recorded $0.7 million and $0.8 million of expense related to stock options in fiscal years 2022 and 2021, respectively.

A summary of stock option activity as of June 30, 2022, and changes during the period from July 1, 2021 through June 30, 2022 are as follows:

The Company determined the fair value of the awards based on the closing price of the Company stock on the date the RSUs were awarded. The unvested RSUs are non-voting but accrue cash dividends at the same per share rate as those cash dividends declared and paid on LSI’s common stock. Dividends on RSUs in the amount of $65,743 were accrued as of June 30, 2022. Accrued dividends are paid to the holder upon vesting of the RSUs and issuance of shares.

Performance Stock Units

A total of 190,980 PSUs with a weighted average fair value of $8.12 per share were awarded to employees during fiscal 2022. The Company determined the fair value of the awards based on the closing price of the Company stock on the date the PSUs were awarded. PSUs vest if the Company meets certain financial metrics over a three-year period.

Director and Employee Stock Compensation Awards

The Company awarded a total of 42,420 and 43,049 common shares as stock compensation awards in fiscal years 2022, and 2021, respectively. These common shares were valued at their approximate $0.3 million fair market values based on their stock price at dates of issuance multiplied by the number of common shares awarded, pursuant to the compensation programs for non-employee directors who receive a portion of their compensation as an award of Company stock and for employees who received a nominal recognition award in the form of Company stock. Stock compensation awards are made in the form of newly issued common shares of the Company.

This plan is fully funded in a Rabbi Trust. All plan investments are in common shares of the Company. As of June 30, 2022, there were 32 participants, all with fully vested account balances. A total of 821,876 common shares with a cost of $5.9 million, and 345,875 common shares with a cost of $2.5 million, both of which included the Company contributions and the participant deferrals, were held in the plan as of June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively, and, accordingly, have been recorded as treasury shares. 

The change in the number of shares held by this plan is the net result of newly issued shares as compensation deferred into the plan offset by distributions to terminated employees. The Company issued 494,047 and 193,510 new common shares for purposes of the non-qualified deferred compensation plan during fiscal 2022, and during fiscal 2021, respectively.

The entire uncertain tax position of $0.6 million, net of federal tax benefit, would impact the effective tax rate if recognized.

At June 30, 2021, tax, interest, and penalties, net of potential federal tax benefits, were $0.7 million, $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of the total reserve for uncertain tax positions of $1.2 million. The entire uncertain tax position of $0.7 million net of federal tax benefit, would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. The liability for uncertain tax position is included in Other Long-Term Liabilities.

The Company is recording estimated interest and penalties related to potential underpayment of income taxes as a component of tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognized a $0.1 million net tax (benefit)/expense in both fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, related to the change in reserves for uncertain tax positions. The Company recognized interest net of federal benefit and penalties of ($8,000) and ($10,000), respectively, in fiscal 2022 and $32,000 and $19,000, respectively, in fiscal 2021. The reserve for uncertain tax positions is not expected to change significantly in the next twelve months. 

The tax activity in the liability for uncertain tax positions was as follows:

Except that US tax years prior to June 30, 2019, are subject to exam to the extent of the US tax refunds generated from the carry back of the June 30, 2019, federal net operating loss.  The Company received notice that the IRS intends to examine the US tax year ended June 30, 2020, but the exam has not started.

Significant Accounting Policies [Text Block]

NOTE 1 — SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES

Consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LSI Industries Inc. (an Ohio corporation) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), all of which are wholly owned. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies the performance obligation in its customer contracts or purchase orders. Most of the Company’s products have a single performance obligation which is satisfied at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer. Control is generally transferred at time of shipment when title and risk of ownership passes to the customer. For customer contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price and any discounts to each performance obligation based on relative standalone selling prices. Payment terms are typically within 30 to 90 days from the shipping date, depending on the terms with the customer. The Company offers standard warranties that do not represent separate performance obligations.

Installation is a separate performance obligation, except for the Company’s digital signage products. For digital signage products, installation is not a separate performance obligation as the product and installation is the combined item promised in digital signage contracts. The Company is not always responsible for installation of products it sells and has no post-installation responsibilities other than standard warranties.

A number of the Company's display solutions and select lighting products are customized for specific customers. As a result, these customized products do not have an alternative use. For these products, the Company has a legal right to payment for performance to date and generally does not accept returns on these items. The measurement of performance is based upon cost plus a reasonable profit margin for work completed. Because there is no alternative use and there is a legal right to payment, the Company transfers control of the item as the item is being produced and therefore, recognizes revenue over time. The customized product types are as follows:

● Customer specific branded print graphics

● Electrical components based on customer specifications

● Digital signage and related media content

The Company also offers installation services for its display solutions elements and select lighting products. Installation revenue is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided through the installation process.

For these customized products and installation services, revenue is recognized using a cost-based input method: recognizing revenue and gross profit as work is performed based on the relationship between the actual cost incurred and the total estimated cost for the performance obligation.

On occasion, the Company enters into bill-and-hold arrangements on a limited basis. Each bill-and-hold arrangement is reviewed and revenue is recognized only when certain criteria have been met: (1) the customer has requested delayed delivery and storage of the products by the Company because the customer wants to secure a supply of the products but lacks storage space; (ii) the risk of ownership has passed to the customer; (iii) the products are segregated from the Company’s other inventory items held for sale; (iv) the products are ready for shipment to the customer; and (v) the Company does not have the ability to use the products or direct them to another customer.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company disaggregates the revenue from contracts with customers by the timing of revenue recognition because the Company believes it best depicts the nature, amount, and timing of its revenue and cash flows. The table below presents a reconciliation of the disaggregation by reportable segments:

Practical Expedients and Exemptions

● The Company’s contracts with customers have an expected duration of one year or less, as such, the Company applies the practical expedient to expense sales commissions as incurred and has omitted disclosures on the amount of remaining performance obligations.

● Shipping costs that are not material in context of the delivery of products are expensed as incurred.

● The Company’s accounts receivable balance represents the Company’s unconditional right to receive payment from its customers with contracts. Payments are generally due within 30 to 90 days of completion of the performance obligation and invoicing; therefore, payments do not contain significant financing components.

● The Company collects sales tax and other taxes concurrent with revenue-producing activities which are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfillment activities and included in cost of products and services sold on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Credit and Collections:

The Company maintains allowances for credit losses for probable estimated losses resulting from either customer disputes or the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make the required payments, the Company may be required to record additional allowances or charges against income. The Company determines its allowance for credit losses by first considering all known collectability problems of customers’ accounts, and then applying certain percentages against the various aging categories based on the due date of the remaining receivables. The resulting allowance for credit losses is an estimate based upon the Company’s knowledge of its business and customer base, the current economic climate and historical trends. Receivables deemed uncollectable are written-off against the allowance for credit losses after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted. The Company also establishes allowances, at the time revenue is recognized, for returns, discounts, pricing and other possible customer deductions. These allowances are based upon historical trends. The following table presents the Company’s net accounts receivable at the dates indicated.

(In thousands)	June 30, 2022			June 30, 2021
Accounts receivable	$	78,249		$	57,941
Less: Allowance for credit losses		(499	)		(256	)
Accounts receivable, net	$	77,750		$	57,685

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The cash balance includes cash and cash equivalents which have original maturities of less than three months. Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of bank deposits and a bank money market account that is stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company maintains balances at financial institutions in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. In the United States, the FDIC limit for insurance coverage on non-interest-bearing accounts is $250,000 per institution. As of June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, the Company had bank balances of $2.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively, without insurance coverage.

Inventories, Net:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost of inventories includes the cost of purchased raw materials and purchased components, direct labor, as well as manufacturing overhead which is generally applied to inventory based on direct labor and on material content, is determined on the first-in, first-out basis.

The Company maintains an inventory reserve for obsolete and excess inventory. The Company first determines its obsolete inventory reserve by considering specific known obsolete items, and then by applying certain percentages to specific inventory categories based upon inventory turns. The Company uses various tools, in addition to inventory turns, to identify which inventory items have the potential to become obsolete. Judgment is used to establish excess and obsolete inventory reserves and management adjusts these reserves as more information becomes available about the ultimate disposition of the inventory item.  

Property, Plant and Equipment and Related Depreciation:

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Major additions and betterments are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are expensed. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Buildings (in years)	28	-	40
Machinery and equipment (in years)	3	-	10
Computer software (in years)	3	-	8

Costs related to the purchase, internal development, and implementation of the Company’s fully integrated enterprise resource planning/business operating software system are either capitalized or expensed. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of fifteen years or the remaining term of the lease.

The Company recorded $5.3 million and $5.2 million of depreciation expense in the years ended June 30, 2022, and 2021 respectively.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets consisting of customer relationships, trade names and trademarks, patents, technology and software are recorded on the Company's balance sheet. The definite-lived intangible assets are being amortized to expense over periods ranging between five and twenty years. The Company evaluates definite-lived intangible assets for possible impairment when triggering events are identified. Neither indefinite-lived intangible assets nor the excess of cost over fair value of assets acquired ("goodwill") are amortized, however, they are subject to review for impairment. See additional information about goodwill and intangible assets in Note 7.

Fair Value:

The Company has financial instruments consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents, revolving lines of credit, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and long-term debt. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value because of their short-term maturity and/or variable, market-driven interest rates. The Company has no financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk.

Fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities are primarily used in goodwill and other intangible asset impairment analyses, long-lived asset impairment analyses and valuation of acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The accounting guidance on fair value measurement was used to measure the fair value of these nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities.

Product Warranties:

The Company offers a limited warranty that its products are free from defects in workmanship and materials.  The specific terms and conditions vary somewhat by product line, but generally cover defective products returned within one to five years, with some exceptions where the terms extend to 10 years, from the date of shipment. The Company records warranty liabilities to cover the estimated future costs for repair or replacement of defective returned products as well as products that need to be repaired or replaced in the field after installation. The Company calculates its liability for warranty claims by applying estimates based upon historical claims as a percentage of sales to cover unknown claims, as well as estimating the total amount to be incurred for known warranty issues. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amount as necessary.

Changes in the Company’s warranty liabilities, which are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, during the periods indicated below were as follows:

Product Warranties
(In thousands)	June 30, 2022			June 30, 2021
Balance at beginning of the period	$	5,295		$	6,956
Additions from company acquired		-			248
Additions charged to expense		2,960			859
Deductions for repairs and replacements		(3,764	)		(2,768	)
Balance at end of the period	$	4,491		$	5,295

Employee Benefit Plans:

The Company has a 401(k) retirement plan whereby employee’s contributions to the 401(k) are matched by the Company. The 401(k) match program covers substantially all of its employees. The Company also has a nonqualified deferred compensation plan covering certain employees. The costs of employee benefit plans are charged to expense and funded annually. Total costs were $2.9 million and $1.4 million in June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Research and Development Costs:

Research and development costs are directly attributable to new product development, including the development of new technology for both existing and new products, and consist of salaries, payroll taxes, employee benefits, materials, outside legal costs and filing fees related to obtaining patents, supplies, depreciation, and other administrative costs. The Company expenses as research and development all costs associated with development of software used in solid-state LED products. All costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling and administrative expenses. Research and development costs related to both product and software development totaled $3.6 million and $3.7 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Cost of Products and Services Sold:

Cost of products sold is primarily comprised of direct materials and supplies consumed in the manufacture of products, as well as manufacturing labor, depreciation expense and direct overhead expense necessary to acquire and convert the purchased materials and supplies into finished product. Cost of products sold also includes the cost to distribute products to customers, inbound freight costs, internal transfer costs, warehousing costs and other shipping and handling activity. Cost of services sold is primarily comprised of the internal and external labor costs required to support the Company’s installation and service revenue along with the management of media content.

Stock-Based Compensation:

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to certain employees and its directors in accordance with accounting guidance for stock-based compensation. The accounting guidance requires companies to measure the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including stock options, restricted stock units, and performance stock unites, based on the grant date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Equity award forfeitures are recognized at the date of employee termination.

Earnings Per Common Share:

The computation of basic earnings per common share is based on the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period net of treasury shares held in the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan. The computation of diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period and includes common share equivalents. Common share equivalents include the dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock units, contingently issuable shares and common shares to be issued under a deferred compensation plan, all of which totaled 1,375,000 shares and 1,029,000 shares in fiscal 2022 and 2021, respectively. See further discussion in Note 4.

Income Taxes:

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting guidance for income taxes.  Accordingly, deferred income taxes are provided on items that are reported as either income or expense in different time periods for financial reporting purposes than they are for income tax purposes. Deferred income tax assets are reported on the Company’s balance sheet. Significant management judgment is required in developing the Company’s income tax provision, including the estimation of taxable income and the effective income tax rates in the multiple taxing jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the estimation of the liability for uncertain income tax positions, the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances that might be required against deferred tax assets.

Foreign Exchange:

The functional currency of the Company’s Mexican subsidiary is the Mexican Peso and the functional currency of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian Dollar. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated using period end exchange rates. Revenue and expenses are translated using average exchange rates during each period reported. Translation losses (gains) are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss (gain) as a component of shareholders equity and was nominal as of June 30, 2022, and ($0.1) million as of June 30, 2021. The Company recognizes foreign currency transaction (gains) and losses on certain assets and liabilities that are denominated in the Mexican Peso and Canadian Dollar. These transaction (gains) and losses are reported in other expense in the consolidated statements of operations and were $0.1 million and ($0.2) million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

New Accounting Pronouncements:

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers,” creating an exception to the recognition and measurement principles in ASC 805. The amendment requires that entities apply ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” rather than using fair value, to recognize and measure contracts assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, regardless of whether a business combination occurs in that period. The guidance should be applied prospectively; however, an entity that elects to early adopt in an interim period should apply the amendments to all business combinations that occurred during the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company is evaluating the impact this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

On July 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" (ASC 326 or "CECL"), which amended the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses rather than incurred losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2020 and January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” and ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform: Scope,” respectively. Together, the ASUs provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This guidance is effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2019-12, "Income Taxes - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740)." This guidance removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 such as recognizing deferred taxes for equity investments, the incremental approach to performing intra-period tax allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The standard also simplifies accounting for income taxes under U.S. GAAP by clarifying and amending existing guidance, including the recognition of deferred taxes for goodwill, the allocation of taxes to members of a consolidated group and requiring that an entity reflect the effect of enacted changes in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The Company adopted ASC 2019-12 effective July 1, 2021, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Subsequent Events:

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date the consolidated financial statements were filed. No items were identified during this evaluation that required adjustment to or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.

Note 2 - Acquisition of JSI Store Fixtures

Notes to Financial Statements

Business Combination Disclosure [Text Block]

NOTE 2 — ACQUISITION OF JSI STORE FIXTURES

On  May 21, 2021, the Company acquired 100% of the issued and outstanding shares of capital stock of JSI Store Fixtures (JSI), a Maine-based provider of retail commercial display solutions, for $94.3 million. The acquisition of JSI expands the Company’s total addressable markets within the grocery and refueling and convenience store verticals. The Company funded the acquisition with a combination of cash on hand and $71.6 million from the credit facility

The Company accounted for this transaction as a business combination. The Company preliminarily allocated the purchase price of approximately $93.7 million, which included an estimate of customary post-closing purchase price adjustments to the assets acquired and liabilities assumed at estimated fair values, and the excess of the purchase price over the aggregate fair values was recorded as goodwill. During the second quarter of fiscal 2022, goodwill increased by $0.6 million. The increase is the net difference between the original estimate of recovery from the pre-funded working capital and the final cash received of $0.5 million. During the fourth quarter of fiscal 2022, goodwill, deferred income taxes, and current tax liabilities were adjusted related to the finalization of pre-acquisition tax filings. The final allocation of the purchase consideration to the fair value of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of  May 21, 2021, is as follows:

	May 21, 2021 as initially reported			Adjustments			May 21, 2021 as adjusted
Cash and Cash Equivalents	$	4,067					$	4,067
Account Receivable		9,252			(280	)		8,972
Inventories		9,898						9,898
Property, Plant and Equipment		7,076						7,076
Other Assets		7,440			(2,062	)		5,378
Intangible Assets		45,760						45,760
Accounts Payable		(4,199	)					(4,199	)
Accrued Liabilities		(8,434	)		(225	)		(8,659	)
Deferred Tax Liability		(10,583	)		1,925			(8,658	)
Identifiable Net Assets		60,277			(642	)		59,635
Goodwill		33,415			1,242			34,657
Net Purchase Consideration	$	93,692		$	600		$	94,292

The gross amount of accounts receivable is $9.3 million.

Goodwill recorded from the acquisition of JSI is attributable to the impact of the positive cash flow from JSI in addition to expected synergies from the business combination. The intangible assets include amounts recognized for the fair value of the trade name, technology assets, non-compete agreements and customer relationships. The fair value of the intangible assets was determined based upon the income (discounted cash flow) approach. The following table presents the details of the intangible assets acquired at the date of acquisition

	Estimated		Estimated Useful
(In thousands)	Fair Value		Life (Years)
Tradename	$	8,680	Indefinite life
Technology asset		4,900		7
Non-compete		260		5
Customer relationship		31,920		20
	$	45,760

The fair market value write-up of the property, plant, and equipment totaled $1.8 million. Transaction costs related to the acquisition totaled $2.9 million in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021.

JSI’s post-acquisition results of operations for the period from May 21, 2021, through June 30, 2021, are included in the Company’s Consolidated Statements of Operations. Since the acquisition date, net sales of JSI for the period from May 21, 2021, through June 30, 2021, were $9.1 million and operating income was $0.7 million. The operating results of JSI are included in the Display Solutions Segment.

Pro Forma Impact of the Acquisition of JSI (unaudited)

The following table represents unaudited pro forma results of operations and gives effect to the acquisition of JSI as if the transaction had occurred on  July 1, 2019. The unaudited pro forma results of operations have been prepared for comparative purposes only and are not necessarily indicative of what would have occurred had the business combination been completed at the beginning of the period or the results that  may occur in the future. Furthermore, the unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect the impact of any synergies or operating efficiencies resulting from the acquisition of JSI.

The unaudited pro forma financial information for the twelve months ended  June 30, 2021, and  June 30, 2020, is prepared using the acquisition method of accounting and has been adjusted to give effect to the pro forma events that are: (1) directly attributable to the acquisition; (2) factually supportable; and (3) expected to have a continuing impact on the combined results. The unaudited pro forma operating income of $19.3 million for fiscal 2021 excludes acquisition-related expenses of $2.9 million.

Segment Reporting Disclosure [Text Block]

NOTE 3 — BUSINESS SEGMENT INFORMATION

The accounting guidance on Segment Reporting establishes standards for reporting information regarding operating segments in annual financial statements and requires selected information of those segments to be presented in financial statements. Operating segments are identified as components of an enterprise for which separate discrete financial information is available for evaluation by the chief operating decision maker (the Company’s Chief Executive Officer or “CODM”) in making decisions on how to allocate resources and assess performance. The Company’s two operating segments are Lighting and Display Solutions (formerly known as the Graphics Segment), with one executive team under the organizational structure reporting directly to the CODM with responsibilities for managing each segment. Corporate and Eliminations, which captures the Company’s corporate administrative activities, is also reported in the segment information.

The Lighting Segment includes non-residential outdoor and indoor lighting fixtures utilizing LED light sources that have been fabricated and assembled for the Company’s markets, primarily the refueling and convenience store markets, parking lot and garage markets, quick-service restaurant market, retail and grocery store markets, the automotive market, the warehouse market, and the sports court and field market. The Company also offers a variety of lighting controls to complement its lighting fixtures which include sensors, photocontrols, dimmers, motion detection and Bluetooth systems. The Company also services lighting product customers through the commercial and industrial project, stock and flow, and renovation channels. The Lighting Segment also includes the design, engineering and manufacturing of electronic circuit boards, assemblies and sub-assemblies which are sold directly to customers.

The Company acquired JSI in the fourth quarter of fiscal 2021, and consolidated it into the former Graphics Segment, which has been rebranded as the Display Solutions Segment, to more closely align the Company’s comprehensive product offering with the markets it serves. The Display Solutions Segment manufactures, sells and installs exterior and interior visual image and display elements, including printed graphics, structural graphics, digital signage, menu board systems, display fixtures, refrigerated displays, and custom display elements. These products are used in visual image programs in several markets including the refueling and convenience store markets, parking lot and garage markets, quick-service restaurant market, retail and grocery store markets, the automotive market, the warehouse market, and the sports court and field market.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets Disclosure [Text Block]

NOTE 7 — GOODWILL AND OTHER INTANGIBLE ASSETS

The carrying values of goodwill and other intangible assets with indefinite lives are reviewed at least annually for possible impairment. The Company  may first assess qualitative factors in order to determine if goodwill and indefinite-lived intangible assets are impaired. If through the qualitative assessment it is determined that it is more likely than not that goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are not impaired, no further testing is required. If it is determined more likely than not that goodwill and indefinite-lived assets are impaired, or if the Company elects not to first assess qualitative factors, the Company’s impairment testing continues with the estimation of the fair value of the reporting unit using a combination of a market approach and an income (discounted cash flow) approach, at the reporting unit level. The estimation of the fair value of reporting unit requires significant management judgment with respect to revenue and expense growth rates, changes in working capital and the selection and use of an appropriate discount rate. The estimates of the fair value of reporting units are based on the best information available as of the date of the assessment. The use of different assumptions would increase or decrease estimated discounted future operating cash flows and could increase or decrease an impairment charge. Company management uses its judgment in assessing whether assets  may have become impaired between annual impairment tests. Indicators such as adverse business conditions, economic factors and technological change or competitive activities  may signal that an asset has become impaired.

The Company identified its reporting units in conjunction with its annual goodwill impairment testing. Following the acquisition of JSI, the Company has a total of three reporting units that contain goodwill. One reporting unit is within the Lighting Segment and two reporting units are within the Display Solutions Segment. The tradename intangible assets have an indefinite life and are also tested separately on an annual basis. The Company relies upon a number of factors, judgments and estimates when conducting its impairment testing including, but not limited to, the Company’s stock price, operating results, forecasts, anticipated future cash flows and marketplace data. There are inherent uncertainties related to these factors and judgments in applying them to the analysis of goodwill impairment.

Fiscal 2022:

As of  March 1, 2022, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test on the three reporting units that contain goodwill. The goodwill impairment test of the reporting unit in the Lighting Segment passed with a business enterprise value of $31.6 million or 18% above the carrying value of the reporting unit including goodwill. The goodwill impairment test of one reporting unit with goodwill in the Display Solutions Segment passed with an estimated business enterprise value of $12.2 million or 1,316% above the carrying value of the reporting unit including goodwill. The goodwill impairment test of the second reporting unit with goodwill in the Display Solutions Segment passed with an estimated business enterprise value of $100.4 million or 12% above the carrying value of the reporting unit including goodwill.

The Company has two indefinite-lived intangible assets. The Company also performed its annual review of indefinite-lived intangible assets as of  March 1, 2022 and determined there was no impairment. The impairment test of the first indefinite-lived intangible asset passed with a fair market value of $17.0 million or 396% above its carrying value. The impairment test of the second indefinite-lived intangible asset passed with a fair market value of and $10.6 million or 22% above its carrying value.

Fiscal 2021:

As of March 1, 2021, the Company performed its annual goodwill impairment test on the two reporting units that contain goodwill. The goodwill impairment test of the reporting unit in the Lighting Segment passed with a business enterprise value of $28.2 million or 26% above the carrying value of this reporting unit including goodwill. The goodwill impairment test of the reporting unit in the Display Solutions Segment passed with a business enterprise value of $11.4 million or 2,065% above the carrying value of the reporting unit including goodwill.

The Company also performed its annual review of its indefinite-lived intangible asset as of March 1, 2021, and determined there was no impairment. The indefinite-lived intangible impairment test passed with a fair market value that was $15.7 million or 358% above its carrying value.

The Company has performed an assessment of its goodwill and intangible assets from the date of the interim test as of March 1, 2022, through the balance sheet date for possible triggering events and has concluded that there were no triggering events that would indicate the assets are impaired.

The following table presents information about the Company's goodwill on the dates or for the periods indicated:

NOTE 8 — REVOLVING LINE OF CREDIT AND LONG-TERM DEBT

The Company’s long-term debt as of June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, consisted of the following:

(In thousands)	June 30, 2022		June 30, 2021

Less: amounts due within one year		3,571		-
Total amounts due after one year, net	$	76,025	$	68,178

In September 2021, the Company amended its existing $100 million secured line of credit, to a $25 million term loan and $75 million remaining as a secured revolving line of credit. Both facilities expire in the third quarter of fiscal 2026. The principal of the term loan is repaid annually in the amount of $3.6 million over a five-year period with a balloon payment of the remaining balance due on the last month. Interest on both the revolving line of credit and the term loan is charged based upon an increment over the LIBOR rate or a base rate, at the Company’s option. The base rate is calculated as the highest of (a) the Prime rate, (b) the sum of the Overnight Funding Rate plus 50 basis points and (c) the sum of the Daily LIBOR Rate plus 100 basis points as long as a Daily LIBOR rate is offered, ascertainable and not unlawful. The increment over the LIBOR borrowing rate fluctuates between 100 and 225 basis points, and the increment over the Base Rate fluctuates between 0 and 125 basis points, both of which depend upon the ratio of indebtedness to earnings before interest, taxes, depreciation, and amortization (“EBITDA”), as defined in the line of credit agreement. As of June 30, 2022, the Company’s borrowing rate against its revolving line of credit was 3.7%. The increment over LIBOR borrowing rate will be 175 basis points for the second quarter of fiscal 2023. The fee on the unused balance of the $75 million committed line of credit fluctuates between 15 and 25 basis points. Under the terms of this line of credit, the Company has agreed to a negative pledge of real estate assets and is required to comply with financial covenants that limit the ratio of indebtedness to EBITDA and require a minimum fixed charge ratio. As of June 30, 2022, there was $17.7 million available for borrowing under the $75 million line of credit.

NOTE 10 — EQUITY COMPENSATION

In November 2019, the Company’s shareholders approved the 2019 Omnibus Award Plan (“2019 Omnibus Plan”). The purpose of the 2019 Omnibus Plan is to provide a means through which the Company may attract and retain key personnel and to provide a means by which directors, officers, and employees can acquire and maintain an equity interest in the Company. The 2019 Omnibus Plan replaced the 2012 Stock Incentive Plan (“2012 Stock Plan”). The number of shares of common stock authorized for issuance under the 2019 Omnibus Plan is 2,650,000 which were combined with the remaining shares available under the 2012 Stock Plan. The number of shares reserved for issuance under the 2019 Omnibus Plan is 1,411,321 shares, all of which are available for future grant or award as of June 30, 2022. The Plan contains a fungible share ratio that consumes 2.5 available shares for every full value share awarded by the Company as stock compensation. The 2019 Omnibus Plan allows for the grant of non-qualified stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock awards, restricted stock units (RSU’s), performance stock units (PSU’s), and other stock-based awards. The Company also awards Inducement awards are granted by the Company to attract and retain key executives. Inducement awards are separately registered securities and are not part of the 2019 Omnibus Plan.

In fiscal 2022, 146,281 RSUs and 190,980 PSUs were granted. In fiscal 2021, 75,000 inducement options, 30,626 RSUs and 122,509 PSUs were granted.

Stock Options

The fair value of each option on the date of grant was estimated using the Black-Scholes option pricing model. The following table summarizes the weighted-average assumptions used in the Black-Scholes option pricing model to value the stock options granted in the periods indicated. There were no options granted in fiscal 2022.

Stock Options
	2022		2021
Dividend yield		-		2.9	%
Expected volatility		-		50	%
Risk-free interest rate		-		0.3	%
Expected life (in years)		-		6.0
Fair value per share		-	$	2.40

Stock option expense is recorded on a straight-line basis, or sooner if the grantee is retirement eligible as defined in the 2019 Omnibus Plan, net of forfeitures. The forfeiture rate is based on historical rates and reduces the compensation expense recognized. The expected volatility of the Company’s stock was calculated based upon the historic monthly fluctuation in stock price for a period approximating the expected life of option grants. The risk-free interest rate is the rate of a five-year Treasury security at constant, fixed maturity on the approximate date of the stock option grant. The expected life of outstanding options is determined to be less than the contractual term for a period equal to the aggregate group of option holders’ estimated weighted average time within which options will be exercised. It is the Company’s policy that when stock options are exercised, new common shares shall be issued.    

Service-based options have a three-year ratable vesting period beginning one year after the date of grant. Inducement stock options have a term of ten years only if the employee is employed for three years from the date of grant. The maximum exercise period of service-based and performance-based stock options granted under the 2019 Omnibus Plan is ten years. There were no service - based or inducement stock options awarded in fiscal 2022.

The Company recorded $0.7 million and $0.8 million of expense related to stock options in fiscal years 2022 and 2021, respectively.

A total of 821,876 common shares with a cost of $5.9 million, and 345,875 common shares with a cost of $2.5 million, both of which included the Company contributions and the participant deferrals, were held in the plan as of June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively, and, accordingly, have been recorded as treasury shares. 

The change in the number of shares held by this plan is the net result of newly issued shares as compensation deferred into the plan offset by distributions to terminated employees. The Company issued 494,047 and 193,510 new common shares for purposes of the non-qualified deferred compensation plan during fiscal 2022, and during fiscal 2021, respectively.

Lessee, Operating Leases [Text Block]

NOTE 11 — LEASES AND PURCHASE COMMITMENTS

Purchase commitments of the Company totaled $65.6 million as of June 30, 2022.

The Company leases certain manufacturing facilities along with a small office space, a company vehicle, several forklifts, several small tooling items and various items of office equipment. The Company also acquired buildings, machinery and forklift leases with the acquisition of JSI, as well as one sublease. All but two of the Company’s leases are operating. Leases have a remaining term of one to seven years, some of which have an option to renew. The Company does not assume renewals in determining the lease term unless the renewals are deemed reasonably certain. The lease agreements do not contain any material residual guarantees or material variable lease payments.

The Company has periodically entered into short-term operating leases with an initial term of twelve months or less. The Company elected not to record these leases on the balance sheet. The rent expense for these leases was immaterial for fiscal years 2022 and 2021.

The Company has certain leases that contain lease and non-lease components and has elected to utilize the practical expedient to account for these components together as a single lease component.

Lease expense is recognized on a straight-line basis over the lease term. The Company used its incremental borrowing rate when determining the present value of lease payments.

The Company has U.S. federal net operating loss carry forward deferred tax assets of $1.1 million and $1.5 million at June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively. The increase of $1.4 million in fiscal 2021 was from the acquisition of JSI which has an unlimited carryforward period.  The remaining $0.1 million will expire over a three-year period beginning June 30, 2029. The Company has deferred tax assets for research and development credits of $0.1 million at both June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021.  Utilization of the federal net operating losses and research and development credits are limited by Internal Revenue Code Section 382 but are expected to be realized before expiration.

The Company has Canadian net operating loss carry forward deferred tax assets of $0.5 million at June 30, 2022. The $0.5 million deferred tax asset was from the acquisition of JSI and has a 20 year carryforward period.

The Company has state net operating loss carryovers and tax credit deferred tax assets of $0.3 million and $0.6 million at June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, respectively. At June 30, 2021, there was $0.3 million of state net operating losses from the acquisition of JSI and $0.3 million other state net operating losses and tax credits. A valuation allowance of $0.1 million exists at June 30, 2022 against Oregon tax credits not expected to be used.  The Oregon credits are otherwise expected to expire over a 4-year period beginning June 30, 2027.

During fiscal year 2021, the Company eliminated the deferred tax asset and related valuation allowance for the New York tax credits of $2.1 million when the entity holding the New York credits was dissolved. There was no impact to the consolidated financial statements.

At June 30, 2022, tax, interest, and penalties, net of potential federal tax benefits, were $0.6 million, $0.3 million, and $0.2 million, respectively, of the total reserve for uncertain tax positions of $1.1 million. The entire uncertain tax position of $0.6 million, net of federal tax benefit, would impact the effective tax rate if recognized.

At June 30, 2021, tax, interest, and penalties, net of potential federal tax benefits, were $0.7 million, $0.3 million and $0.2 million, respectively, of the total reserve for uncertain tax positions of $1.2 million. The entire uncertain tax position of $0.7 million net of federal tax benefit, would impact the effective tax rate if recognized. The liability for uncertain tax position is included in Other Long-Term Liabilities.

The Company is recording estimated interest and penalties related to potential underpayment of income taxes as a component of tax expense in the Consolidated Statements of Operations. The Company recognized a $0.1 million net tax (benefit)/expense in both fiscal 2022 and fiscal 2021, related to the change in reserves for uncertain tax positions. The Company recognized interest net of federal benefit and penalties of ($8,000) and ($10,000), respectively, in fiscal 2022 and $32,000 and $19,000, respectively, in fiscal 2021. The reserve for uncertain tax positions is not expected to change significantly in the next twelve months. 

The tax activity in the liability for uncertain tax positions was as follows:

(In thousands)	2022			2021
Balance at the beginning of the fiscal year	$	682		$	607

The Company files a consolidated federal income tax return in the United States, and files various combined and separate tax returns in several state and local jurisdictions, and also in Canada and Mexico. In general, the Company is no longer subject to U.S. Federal, state, and local tax examinations by tax authorities for fiscal years ending prior to June 30, 2019. Except that US tax years prior to June 30, 2019, are subject to exam to the extent of the US tax refunds generated from the carry back of the June 30, 2019, federal net operating loss.  The Company received notice that the IRS intends to examine the US tax year ended June 30, 2020, but the exam has not started.

Significant Accounting Policies (Policies)

12 Months Ended

Jun. 30, 2022

Accounting Policies [Abstract]

Consolidation, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Consolidation:

The consolidated financial statements include the accounts of LSI Industries Inc. (an Ohio corporation) and its subsidiaries (collectively, the “Company”), all of which are wholly owned. All intercompany transactions and balances have been eliminated in consolidation.

Revenue [Policy Text Block]

Revenue Recognition:

The Company recognizes revenue when it satisfies the performance obligation in its customer contracts or purchase orders. Most of the Company’s products have a single performance obligation which is satisfied at a point in time when control is transferred to the customer. Control is generally transferred at time of shipment when title and risk of ownership passes to the customer. For customer contracts with multiple performance obligations, the Company allocates the transaction price and any discounts to each performance obligation based on relative standalone selling prices. Payment terms are typically within 30 to 90 days from the shipping date, depending on the terms with the customer. The Company offers standard warranties that do not represent separate performance obligations.

Installation is a separate performance obligation, except for the Company’s digital signage products. For digital signage products, installation is not a separate performance obligation as the product and installation is the combined item promised in digital signage contracts. The Company is not always responsible for installation of products it sells and has no post-installation responsibilities other than standard warranties.

A number of the Company's display solutions and select lighting products are customized for specific customers. As a result, these customized products do not have an alternative use. For these products, the Company has a legal right to payment for performance to date and generally does not accept returns on these items. The measurement of performance is based upon cost plus a reasonable profit margin for work completed. Because there is no alternative use and there is a legal right to payment, the Company transfers control of the item as the item is being produced and therefore, recognizes revenue over time. The customized product types are as follows:

● Customer specific branded print graphics

● Electrical components based on customer specifications

● Digital signage and related media content

The Company also offers installation services for its display solutions elements and select lighting products. Installation revenue is recognized over time as the customer simultaneously receives and consumes the benefits provided through the installation process.

For these customized products and installation services, revenue is recognized using a cost-based input method: recognizing revenue and gross profit as work is performed based on the relationship between the actual cost incurred and the total estimated cost for the performance obligation.

On occasion, the Company enters into bill-and-hold arrangements on a limited basis. Each bill-and-hold arrangement is reviewed and revenue is recognized only when certain criteria have been met: (1) the customer has requested delayed delivery and storage of the products by the Company because the customer wants to secure a supply of the products but lacks storage space; (ii) the risk of ownership has passed to the customer; (iii) the products are segregated from the Company’s other inventory items held for sale; (iv) the products are ready for shipment to the customer; and (v) the Company does not have the ability to use the products or direct them to another customer.

Disaggregation of Revenue

The Company disaggregates the revenue from contracts with customers by the timing of revenue recognition because the Company believes it best depicts the nature, amount, and timing of its revenue and cash flows. The table below presents a reconciliation of the disaggregation by reportable segments:

Practical Expedients and Exemptions

● The Company’s contracts with customers have an expected duration of one year or less, as such, the Company applies the practical expedient to expense sales commissions as incurred and has omitted disclosures on the amount of remaining performance obligations.

● Shipping costs that are not material in context of the delivery of products are expensed as incurred.

● The Company’s accounts receivable balance represents the Company’s unconditional right to receive payment from its customers with contracts. Payments are generally due within 30 to 90 days of completion of the performance obligation and invoicing; therefore, payments do not contain significant financing components.

● The Company collects sales tax and other taxes concurrent with revenue-producing activities which are excluded from revenue. Shipping and handling costs are treated as fulfillment activities and included in cost of products and services sold on the Consolidated Statements of Operations.

Accounts Receivable [Policy Text Block]

Credit and Collections:

The Company maintains allowances for credit losses for probable estimated losses resulting from either customer disputes or the inability of its customers to make required payments. If the financial condition of the Company’s customers were to deteriorate, resulting in their inability to make the required payments, the Company may be required to record additional allowances or charges against income. The Company determines its allowance for credit losses by first considering all known collectability problems of customers’ accounts, and then applying certain percentages against the various aging categories based on the due date of the remaining receivables. The resulting allowance for credit losses is an estimate based upon the Company’s knowledge of its business and customer base, the current economic climate and historical trends. Receivables deemed uncollectable are written-off against the allowance for credit losses after all reasonable collection efforts have been exhausted. The Company also establishes allowances, at the time revenue is recognized, for returns, discounts, pricing and other possible customer deductions. These allowances are based upon historical trends. The following table presents the Company’s net accounts receivable at the dates indicated.

(In thousands)	June 30, 2022			June 30, 2021
Accounts receivable	$	78,249		$	57,941
Less: Allowance for credit losses		(499	)		(256	)
Accounts receivable, net	$	77,750		$	57,685

Cash and Cash Equivalents, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Cash and Cash Equivalents:

The cash balance includes cash and cash equivalents which have original maturities of less than three months. Cash and cash equivalents consist primarily of bank deposits and a bank money market account that is stated at cost, which approximates fair value. The Company maintains balances at financial institutions in the United States, Canada, and Mexico. In the United States, the FDIC limit for insurance coverage on non-interest-bearing accounts is $250,000 per institution. As of June 30, 2022, and June 30, 2021, the Company had bank balances of $2.7 million and $2.3 million, respectively, without insurance coverage.

Inventory, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Inventories, Net:

Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or net realizable value. Cost of inventories includes the cost of purchased raw materials and purchased components, direct labor, as well as manufacturing overhead which is generally applied to inventory based on direct labor and on material content, is determined on the first-in, first-out basis.

The Company maintains an inventory reserve for obsolete and excess inventory. The Company first determines its obsolete inventory reserve by considering specific known obsolete items, and then by applying certain percentages to specific inventory categories based upon inventory turns. The Company uses various tools, in addition to inventory turns, to identify which inventory items have the potential to become obsolete. Judgment is used to establish excess and obsolete inventory reserves and management adjusts these reserves as more information becomes available about the ultimate disposition of the inventory item.  

Property, Plant and Equipment, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Property, Plant and Equipment and Related Depreciation:

Property, plant, and equipment are stated at cost. Major additions and betterments are capitalized while maintenance and repairs are expensed. For financial reporting purposes, depreciation is computed on the straight-line method over the estimated useful lives of the assets as follows:

Buildings (in years)	28	-	40
Machinery and equipment (in years)	3	-	10
Computer software (in years)	3	-	8

Costs related to the purchase, internal development, and implementation of the Company’s fully integrated enterprise resource planning/business operating software system are either capitalized or expensed. Leasehold improvements are depreciated over the shorter of fifteen years or the remaining term of the lease.

The Company recorded $5.3 million and $5.2 million of depreciation expense in the years ended June 30, 2022, and 2021 respectively.

Goodwill and Intangible Assets, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Goodwill and Intangible Assets:

Intangible assets consisting of customer relationships, trade names and trademarks, patents, technology and software are recorded on the Company's balance sheet. The definite-lived intangible assets are being amortized to expense over periods ranging between five and twenty years. The Company evaluates definite-lived intangible assets for possible impairment when triggering events are identified. Neither indefinite-lived intangible assets nor the excess of cost over fair value of assets acquired ("goodwill") are amortized, however, they are subject to review for impairment. See additional information about goodwill and intangible assets in Note 7.

Fair Value Measurement, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Fair Value:

The Company has financial instruments consisting primarily of cash and cash equivalents, revolving lines of credit, accounts receivable, accounts payable, and long-term debt. The fair value of these financial instruments approximates carrying value because of their short-term maturity and/or variable, market-driven interest rates. The Company has no financial instruments with off-balance sheet risk.

Fair value measurements of nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities are primarily used in goodwill and other intangible asset impairment analyses, long-lived asset impairment analyses and valuation of acquired assets and assumed liabilities. The accounting guidance on fair value measurement was used to measure the fair value of these nonfinancial assets and nonfinancial liabilities.

Standard Product Warranty, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Product Warranties:

The Company offers a limited warranty that its products are free from defects in workmanship and materials.  The specific terms and conditions vary somewhat by product line, but generally cover defective products returned within one to five years, with some exceptions where the terms extend to 10 years, from the date of shipment. The Company records warranty liabilities to cover the estimated future costs for repair or replacement of defective returned products as well as products that need to be repaired or replaced in the field after installation. The Company calculates its liability for warranty claims by applying estimates based upon historical claims as a percentage of sales to cover unknown claims, as well as estimating the total amount to be incurred for known warranty issues. The Company periodically assesses the adequacy of its recorded warranty liabilities and adjusts the amount as necessary.

Changes in the Company’s warranty liabilities, which are included in accrued expenses in the accompanying consolidated balance sheets, during the periods indicated below were as follows:

Product Warranties
(In thousands)	June 30, 2022			June 30, 2021

Deductions for repairs and replacements		(3,764	)		(2,768	)
Balance at end of the period	$	4,491		$	5,295

Pension and Other Postretirement Plans, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Employee Benefit Plans:

The Company has a 401(k) retirement plan whereby employee’s contributions to the 401(k) are matched by the Company. The 401(k) match program covers substantially all of its employees. The Company also has a nonqualified deferred compensation plan covering certain employees. The costs of employee benefit plans are charged to expense and funded annually. Total costs were $2.9 million and $1.4 million in June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Research, Development, and Computer Software, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Research and Development Costs:

Research and development costs are directly attributable to new product development, including the development of new technology for both existing and new products, and consist of salaries, payroll taxes, employee benefits, materials, outside legal costs and filing fees related to obtaining patents, supplies, depreciation, and other administrative costs. The Company expenses as research and development all costs associated with development of software used in solid-state LED products. All costs are expensed as incurred and are included in selling and administrative expenses. Research and development costs related to both product and software development totaled $3.6 million and $3.7 million for the fiscal years ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

Cost of Goods and Service [Policy Text Block]

Cost of Products and Services Sold:

Cost of products sold is primarily comprised of direct materials and supplies consumed in the manufacture of products, as well as manufacturing labor, depreciation expense and direct overhead expense necessary to acquire and convert the purchased materials and supplies into finished product. Cost of products sold also includes the cost to distribute products to customers, inbound freight costs, internal transfer costs, warehousing costs and other shipping and handling activity. Cost of services sold is primarily comprised of the internal and external labor costs required to support the Company’s installation and service revenue along with the management of media content.

Share-Based Payment Arrangement [Policy Text Block]

Stock-Based Compensation:

The Company accounts for stock-based compensation to certain employees and its directors in accordance with accounting guidance for stock-based compensation. The accounting guidance requires companies to measure the cost of employee and director services received in exchange for an award of equity instruments, including stock options, restricted stock units, and performance stock unites, based on the grant date fair value of the award and to recognize it as compensation expense over the period the employee is required to provide service in exchange for the award, usually the vesting period. Equity award forfeitures are recognized at the date of employee termination.

Earnings Per Share, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Earnings Per Common Share:

The computation of basic earnings per common share is based on the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period net of treasury shares held in the Company’s nonqualified deferred compensation plan. The computation of diluted earnings per share is based on the weighted average common shares outstanding for the period and includes common share equivalents. Common share equivalents include the dilutive effect of stock options, restricted stock units, contingently issuable shares and common shares to be issued under a deferred compensation plan, all of which totaled 1,375,000 shares and 1,029,000 shares in fiscal 2022 and 2021, respectively. See further discussion in Note 4.

Income Tax, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Income Taxes:

The Company accounts for income taxes in accordance with the accounting guidance for income taxes.  Accordingly, deferred income taxes are provided on items that are reported as either income or expense in different time periods for financial reporting purposes than they are for income tax purposes. Deferred income tax assets are reported on the Company’s balance sheet. Significant management judgment is required in developing the Company’s income tax provision, including the estimation of taxable income and the effective income tax rates in the multiple taxing jurisdictions in which the Company operates, the estimation of the liability for uncertain income tax positions, the determination of deferred tax assets and liabilities, and any valuation allowances that might be required against deferred tax assets.

Foreign Currency Transactions and Translations Policy [Policy Text Block]

Foreign Exchange:

The functional currency of the Company’s Mexican subsidiary is the Mexican Peso and the functional currency of the Company’s Canadian subsidiary is the Canadian Dollar. Assets and liabilities of foreign operations are translated using period end exchange rates. Revenue and expenses are translated using average exchange rates during each period reported. Translation losses (gains) are reported in accumulated other comprehensive loss (gain) as a component of shareholders equity and was nominal as of June 30, 2022, and ($0.1) million as of June 30, 2021. The Company recognizes foreign currency transaction (gains) and losses on certain assets and liabilities that are denominated in the Mexican Peso and Canadian Dollar. These transaction (gains) and losses are reported in other expense in the consolidated statements of operations and were $0.1 million and ($0.2) million for the fiscal year ended June 30, 2022, and 2021, respectively.

New Accounting Pronouncements, Policy [Policy Text Block]

New Accounting Pronouncements:

In October 2021, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued Accounting Standards Update (ASU) 2021-08, “Business Combinations (Topic 805): Accounting for Contract Assets and Contract Liabilities from Contracts with Customers,” creating an exception to the recognition and measurement principles in ASC 805. The amendment requires that entities apply ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers,” rather than using fair value, to recognize and measure contracts assets and contract liabilities from contracts with customers acquired in a business combination. The ASU is effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022, and interim periods therein. Early adoption is permitted, including adoption in an interim period, regardless of whether a business combination occurs in that period. The guidance should be applied prospectively; however, an entity that elects to early adopt in an interim period should apply the amendments to all business combinations that occurred during the fiscal year that includes that interim period. The Company is evaluating the impact this guidance may have on its consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

On July 1, 2020, the Company adopted ASU 2016-13, "Financial Instruments - Credit Losses (Topic 326): Measurement of Credit Losses on Financial Instruments" (ASC 326 or "CECL"), which amended the impairment model by requiring entities to use a forward-looking approach based on expected losses rather than incurred losses to estimate credit losses on certain types of financial instruments, including trade receivables. The adoption of ASU 2016-13 did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In March 2020 and January 2021, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting” and ASU 2021-01, “Reference Rate Reform: Scope,” respectively. Together, the ASUs provide temporary optional expedients and exceptions to the U.S. GAAP guidance on contract modifications and hedge accounting to ease the financial reporting burdens related to the expected market transition from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offered rates to alternative reference rates. This guidance is effective beginning on March 12, 2020, and the Company may elect to apply the amendments prospectively through December 31, 2022. The adoption of this guidance did not have a material impact on the consolidated financial statements and related disclosures.

In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board ("FASB") issued ASU 2019-12, "Income Taxes - Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes (Topic 740)." This guidance removes certain exceptions to the general principles in ASC 740 such as recognizing deferred taxes for equity investments, the incremental approach to performing intra-period tax allocation and calculating income taxes in interim periods. The standard also simplifies accounting for income taxes under U.S. GAAP by clarifying and amending existing guidance, including the recognition of deferred taxes for goodwill, the allocation of taxes to members of a consolidated group and requiring that an entity reflect the effect of enacted changes in tax laws or rates in the annual effective tax rate computation in the interim period that includes the enactment date. The Company adopted ASC 2019-12 effective July 1, 2021, which did not have a material impact on its consolidated financial statements or disclosures.

Use of Estimates, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Use of Estimates:

The preparation of financial statements in conformity with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America requires the Company to make estimates and assumptions that affect the amounts reported in the consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ from those estimates.

Subsequent Events, Policy [Policy Text Block]

Subsequent Events:

The Company has evaluated subsequent events for potential recognition and disclosure through the date the consolidated financial statements were filed. No items were identified during this evaluation that required adjustment to or disclosure in the accompanying consolidated financial statements.
