Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Unless indicated otherwise, the terms "Company," "we," "us," and "our" refer to Ascent Industries Co. and its consolidated subsidiaries.

Note 1: Basis of Presentation
Basis of Financial Statement Presentation
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are presented in accordance with the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission and do not include all the disclosures normally required in annual consolidated financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America ("GAAP"). The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, in the opinion of management, contain all normal recurring adjustments necessary to present a fair statement of the condensed consolidated balance sheets as of September 30, 2022, the statements of income and shareholders’ equity for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, and the statements of cash flows for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021. The December 31, 2021 condensed consolidated balance sheet was derived from the audited financial statements.

These interim unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the audited consolidated financial statements and notes thereto in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the "Annual Report"). The financial results for the interim periods may not be indicative of the financial results for the entire year as our future assessment of our current expectations, including consideration of the unknown future impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic, could result in material impacts to our consolidated financial statements in future reporting periods.
Use of Estimates
The preparation of financial statements in conformity with U.S. GAAP required management to make estimates and judgments that affect the amounts reported and disclosed in the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements and accompanying notes. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates.
Name Change
On August 5, 2022, we filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to change our corporate name from Synalloy Corporation to Ascent Industries Co., effective August 10, 2022.

Accounting Pronouncements Not Yet Adopted
In March 2020, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (FASB) issued ASU 2020-04 "Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting." The ASU, and subsequent clarifications, provide practical expedients for contract modification accounting related to the transition away from the London Interbank Offered Rate (LIBOR) and other interbank offering rates to alternative reference rates. The expedients are applicable to contract modifications made and hedging relationships entered into on or before December 31, 2022. The Company intends to use the expedients where needed for reference rate transition. The Company continues to evaluate this standard update and does not currently expect a material impact to the Company’s financial statements or disclosures.

Note 2: Acquisitions
Acquisition of DanChem Technologies, Inc.
On October 22, 2021, the Company completed the acquisition of DanChem, a contract manufacturer of chemical products located in Danville, Virginia. The Company accounted for the transaction as a business combination using the acquisition method of accounting in accordance with Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) Topic 805 - "Business Combinations." The preliminary purchase price was $ 34.1 million including $ 1.5 million in cash obtained through the acquisition. The purchase price was paid in cash and funded through a drawdown of $ 34.5 million on the Company’s existing revolving credit facility. Amounts outstanding under the revolving line of credit portion of the facility currently bear interest, at the Company's option, at (a) the Base Rate (as defined in the Credit Agreement) plus 0.50 %, or (b) LIBOR plus 150 %. See Note 8 for more information on the Company's long-term debt.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, subsequent to the preliminary estimates of fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed, management revised the initial estimate of the fair value of property, plant and equipment resulting in an increase of $ 1.6 million. As a result of this revision within the measurement period, goodwill was decreased by $ 1.2 million and the Company's deferred tax balances were increased by $ 0.4 million. In addition, the change to the provisional amount resulted in an increase in depreciation expense and accumulated depreciation of $ 0.2 million of which $ 0.1 million relates to a previous reporting period.
The table below summarizes the preliminary estimates of fair value of identifiable assets acquired and liabilities assumed in the Acquisition and the revisions made in the third quarter of 2022. These preliminary estimates of the fair value are subject to additional revisions, which may result in additional adjustments to the values presented below.

Goodwill $ 11,282 $ ( 1,207 ) $ 10,075
The Company is in the process of finalizing the value of deferred tax balances and the Company's estimates of these values was still preliminary on September 30, 2022, pending completion of the DanChem pre-acquisition tax returns. Therefore, these provisional amounts are subject to change as the Company continues to evaluate information required to complete the valuations throughout the measurement period, which will not exceed one year from the acquisition date.

Ascent Industries Co.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
Goodwill is calculated as the excess of the purchase price over the fair value of the net assets acquired. The recognized goodwill is attributable to operational synergies, assembled workforce and growth opportunities and was allocated to the Company's Specialty Chemicals segment . Substantially all of the goodwill resulting from this acquisition is not expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The Company had no one-time, acquisition-related costs recognized in acquisition costs and other expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income for the three months ended September 30, 2022 . Approximately $ 0.4 million of one-time, acquisition-related costs, is recognized in acquisition costs and other expenses in the unaudited condensed consolidated statements of income for the nine months ended September 30, 2022 .
The Company identified DanChem’s customer relationships, product development know-how, and tradename as finite-lived assets with estimated fair values as of the acquisition date of $ 5.1 million, $ 0.5 million, and $ 0.2 million, respectively. The finite-lived assets are subject to amortization using either an accelerated or straight-line method over 15 years.
Total net sales and operating loss for DanChem for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 were as follows:
(in thousands) Three Months Ended September 30, 2022 Nine Months Ended September 30, 2022
Net sales $ 8,306 $ 24,167
Operating loss $ ( 728 ) $ ( 286 )
Note 3: Revenue Recognition
Revenue is generated primarily from contracts to produce, ship and deliver steel and chemical products. The Company’s performance obligations are satisfied and revenue is recognized when control and title of the contract promised goods or services is transferred to our cus tomers for product shipped or services rendered. Revenues are recorded net of any sales incentives and discounts. Sales tax and other taxes we collect with revenue-producing activities are excluded from revenue. Shipping costs charged to customers are treated as fulfillment activities and are recorded in both revenue and cost of sales at the time control is transferred to the customer. Costs related to obtaining sales contracts are incidental and are expensed when incurred. Because customers are invoiced at the time title transfers and the Company’s right to consideration is unconditional at that time, the Company does not maintain contract asset balances. Additionally, the Company does not maintain material contract liability balances, as performance obligations for substantially all contracts are satisfied prior to customer payment for product. The Company offers industry standard payment terms.
The following table presents the Company's revenues, disaggregated by product group. Substantially all of the Company's revenues are derived from contracts with customers where performance obligations are satisfied at a point-in-time.

Note 4: Fair Value of Financial Instruments
Fair value is defined as the price that would be received to sell an asset or paid to transfer a liability (exit price) in the principal or most advantageous market for the asset or liability in an orderly transaction between market participants on the measurement date. To measure fair value, we use a three-tier valuation hierarchy based upon observable and non-observable inputs:
Level 1 - Unadjusted quoted prices that are available in active markets for identical assets or liabilities at the measurement date.
Level 2 - Significant other observable inputs available at the measurement date, other than quoted prices included in Level 1, either directly or indirectly, including:
11
Ascent Industries Co.
Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements (Unaudited)
• Quoted prices for similar assets or liabilities in active markets;
• Quoted prices for identical or similar assets or liabilities in non-active markets;
• Inputs other than quoted prices that are observable for the asset or liability; and
• Inputs that are derived principally from or corroborated by other observable market data.
Level 3 - Significant unobservable inputs that cannot be corroborated by observable market data and reflect the use of significant management judgment. These values are generally determined using model-based techniques, including option pricing models, discounted cash flow models, probability weighted models, and Monte Carlo simulations.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Recurring Basis
The fair value hierarchy requires the use of observable market data when available. In instances where the inputs used to measure fair value fall into different levels of the fair value hierarchy, the fair value measurement has been determined on the lowest level input that is significant to the fair value measurement in its entirety. Our assessment of the significance of a particular item to the fair value measurement in its entirety requires judgment, including the consideration of inputs specific to the asset or liability.
Level 3: Contingent consideration (earn-out) liabilities
The fair value of contingent consideration ("earn-out") liabilities resulting from the 2018 MUSA-Galvanized acquisition and the 2019 American Stainless acquisition are classified as Level 3. Each quarter-end, the Company re-evaluates its assumptions for all earn-out liabilities and adjusts to reflect the updated fair values. Changes in the estimated fair value of the earn-out liabilities are reflected in operating income in the periods in which they are identified. Changes in the fair value of the earn-out liabilities may materially impact and cause volatility in the Company's operating results. The significant unobservable inputs used in the fair value measurement of the Company's earn-out liabilities are the discount rate, timing of the estimated payouts, and future revenue projections. Significant increases (decreases) in any of those inputs would not have resulted in a material difference in the fair value measurement of the earn-out liabilities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022.
The following table presents a summary of changes in fair value of the Company's Level 3 earn-out liabilities measured on a recurring basis for the nine months ended September 30, 2022:

For the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company had no unrealized gains or losses included in other comprehensive income for recurring Level 3 fair value instruments.
Assets and Liabilities Measured at Fair Value on a Non-Recurring Basis
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company's only significant measurements of assets or liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis subsequent to their initial recognition were certain assets classified as held for sale.
Assets Held for Sale
On February 17, 2021, the Board of Directors authorized the permanent cessation of operations at Palmer of Texas Tanks, Inc. ("Palmer") and the subleasing of the Palmer facility. As of December 31, 2021, the Company permanently ceased operations at the Palmer facility and determined that the remaining asset group met the criteria to be classified as held for sale, and therefore classified the related assets as held for sale on the consolidated balance sheets. The Company determined that the exit from this business did not represent a strategic shift that had a major effect on its consolidated results of operations, and therefore this business was not classified as discontinued operations. As of September 30, 2022, the remaining Palmer assets continue to be classified as held for sale. The results of operations for this business are included within the Tubular Products segment for all periods presented in this quarterly report. The Company uses observable inputs, such as prices of comparable assets in active markets to determine the fair value of the remaining assets. The Company classifies these fair value measurements as Level 2.

The assets classified as held for sale are as follows:
(in thousands) September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
Inventory, net $ 307 $ 617
Property, plant and equipment, net 211 238
Assets held for sale $ 518 $ 855
The Company remains obligated under the terms of the leases for the rent and other costs that may be associated with the lease of the facility through 2036 . The Company currently has a sublease for a portion of the Palmer facility and is actively negotiating a sublease for the remaining portion of the facility. T he Company will continue to dispose of the remaining assets throughout fiscal 2022.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company's only significant measurements of assets or liabilities at fair value on a non-recurring basis subsequent to their initial recognition were certain long-lived assets. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, t he Company determined that technology associated with certain long lived assets within the Specialty Chemicals segment was obsolete and, as a result, recognized a non-cash, pre-tax asset impairment charge of $ 0.2 million.
Fair Value of Financial Instruments
The fair values of cash and cash equivalents, accounts receivable, accounts payable and the Company's note payable approximated their carrying value because of the short-term nature of these instruments. The Company's revolving line of credit and long-term debt, which is based on a variable interest rate, are also reflected in the financial statements at carrying value which approximate fair values as of September 30, 2022. See Note 8 for further information on the Company's debt.

Note 10: Shareholders' Equity
Share Repurchase Program
On February 17, 2021, the Board of Directors re-authorized the Company's share repurchase program. The previous share repurchase program had a term of 24 months and terminated on February 21, 2021. The share repurchase program allows for repurchase of up to 790,383 shares of the Company's outstanding common stock over 24 months. The shares will be purchased from time to time at prevailing market prices, through open market or privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions. Under the program, the purchases will be funded from available working capital, and the repurchased shares will be returned to the status of authorized, but unissued shares of common stock or held in treasury. There is no guarantee as to the exact number of shares that will be repurchased by the Company, and the Company may discontinue purchases at any time that management determines additional purchases are not warranted.
During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company purchased 30,200 shares under the stock repurchase program at an average price of approximately $ 16.29 per share for an aggregate amount of $ 0.5 million. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company purchased no shares under the stock repurchase program.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company has 760,183 shares of its share repurchase authorization remaining.

Note 11: Earnings Per Share
The following table sets forth the computation of basic and diluted earnings per share:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands, except per share data) 2022 2021 2022 2021
Numerator:
Net income $ 624 $ 8,199 $ 21,941 $ 12,179
Denominator:
Denominator for basic earnings per share - weighted average shares
10,253 9,287 10,235 9,237
Effect of dilutive securities:
Employee stock options and stock grants 212 116 172 111
Denominator for diluted earnings per share - weighted average shares
10,465 9,403 10,407 9,348
Net income per share:
Basic $ 0.06 $ 0.88 $ 2.14 $ 1.32
Diluted $ 0.06 $ 0.87 $ 2.11 $ 1.30
The diluted earnings per share calculations exclude the effect of potentially dilutive shares when the inclusion of those shares in the calculation would have an anti-dilutive effect. The Company had an insignificant number of shares that were anti-dilutive for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The Compan y had 0.3 million and 0.2 million shares of common stock that were anti-dilutive for both the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021.
Note 12: Income Taxes
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. federal income tax as well as income tax of multiple state jurisdictions. The Company is no longer subject to U.S. federal examinations for years before 2018 or state examinations for years before 2017. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, the Company did not identify nor reserve for any unrecognized tax benefits.
Our income tax provision and overall effective tax rates for the periods presented are as follows:
Three Months Ended September 30, Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands) 2022 2021 2022 2021
Income tax provision $ 234 $ 2,179 $ 3,573 $ 3,235
Effective income tax rate 27.3 % 21.0 % 14.0 % 21.0 %

The effective tax rate was 27.3 % and 14.0 % for the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022. The three months ended September 30, 2022, effective tax rate was higher than the U.S. statutory rate 21.0% primarily due to lower quarter to date pretax earnings relative to permanent differences. The nine months ended September 30, 2022, effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0 % primarily due to the year-to-date release of federal valuation allowances.
In prior years, primarily due to the historical losses, the Company established valuation allowances against its certain deferred tax assets. At each reporting date, the Company considers new evidence, both positive and negative, that could affect its view of the future realization of its deferred tax assets. When the Company is able to demonstrate that it could generate taxable income on a sustained basis, its conclusion could change regarding the need for valuation allowance against its deferred tax assets.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company continued to generate pre-tax profits and as a result of sustained profitability evidenced by a strong earnings history and additional positive evidence, the Company determined it was more likely than not it would be able to support realization of certain deferred tax assets and released valuation allowances of $ 1.9 million. The remaining valuation allowances relate to certain U.S. state deferred tax assets that are not considered realizable based on the assessment of all available evidence as of September 30, 2022.

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

This discussion and analysis summarizes the significant factors affecting our consolidated operating results, liquidity, and capital resources during the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. This discussion and analysis should be read in conjunction with the consolidated financial statements and notes to the consolidated financial statements that are included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021 (the Annual Report), as well as the condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) and notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements (unaudited) contained in this report. Unless otherwise specified, all comparisons made are to the corresponding period of 2021. This discussion and analysis is presented in five sections:
• Executive Overview
• Results of Operations and Non-GAAP Financial Measures
• Liquidity and Capital Resources
• Material Cash Requirements from Contractual and Other Obligations
• Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates

Executive Overview
Name Change
On August 5, 2022, we filed with the Secretary of State of the State of Delaware a Certificate of Amendment to our Certificate of Incorporation to change our corporate name from Synalloy Corporation to Ascent Industries Co., effective August 10, 2022.
Third Quarter 2022 Highlights
Consolidated net sales for the third quarter of 2022 were $100.2 million increasing 16.2%, or $14.0 million, compared to the third quarter of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by increases in average selling price as well as the Company's acquisition of DanChem in the fourth quarter of 2021, which is discussed in more detail in Note 2 of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, partially offset by a decrease in pounds shipped. Excluding the DanChem acquisition, net sales increased 6.6%, or $5.7 million, over the third quarter of 2021.
Consolidated net income decreased to $0.6 million, or $0.06 diluted ea rnings per share, in the third quarter of 2022, compared to net income of $8.2 million, or $0.87 diluted earnings per share, in the third quarter of 2021. Excluding the DanChem acquisition, consolidated net income decreased to $1.4 million and earnings per share decreased to $0.13 diluted earnings per share.
During the quarter, the Company used $1.6 million for capital expenditures focusing on growth and maintenance projects to continue to improve operational efficiencies.
In the third quarter of 2022, we delivered another quarter of financial performance with our sixth consecutive quarter of top line year-over-year growth and positive earnings with both segments delivering strong top line growth. We continue to experience varying levels of inflation, increased shipping and transportation costs and increased labor and raw material costs in both segments of our business caused by current economic conditions, however we have continued to manage the impacts of significant changes in inflation rates and other economic disruptions through our customer relationships, continued pass through of rising input and other raw material costs and a continued focus on operational productivity in our facilities. During the quarter we continued to make progress on our transformation efforts and strategic priorities by investing in upgrades and new equipment at our facilities to further enhance and improve manufacturing processes, continued to focus on operational efficiencies within our facilities and continued efforts to maximize our working capital use. During the quarter, we also repurchased 30,200 shares for $0.5 million through our share repurchase program as part of our continued efforts to create sustainable value for our shareholders.
The third quarter of 2022 includes $8.3 million in net sales and $0.7 million in operating loss attributable to the DanChem operations acquired in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Consolidated net sales for the first nine months of 2022 were $332.6 million increasing 39.1%, or $93.5 million, compared to the first nine months of 2021. The increase was primarily driven by increases in average selling price as well as the Company's acquisition of DanChem in the fourth quarter of 2021, which is discussed in more detail in Note 2 of the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements, partially offset by a decrease in pounds shipped. Excluding the DanChem acquisition, net sales increased 29.0%, or $69.4 million, over the first nine months of 2021.
Consolidated net income increased to $21.9 million, or $2.11 diluted earnings per share, in the first nine months of 2022, compared to net income of $12.2 million, or $1.30 diluted earnings per share, in the first nine months of 2021. Excluding the DanChem acquisition, consolidated net income increased to $22.3 million and earnings per share increased to $2.14 diluted earnings per share.
During the first nine months of 2022, the Company generated cash flows from operating activities of $1.0 million compared to $16.2 million in the first nine months of 2021. The decrease is primarily driven by increased working capital use due to the rise in raw material costs partially offset by increased profitability. The Company also used $4.3 million for capital expenditures during the first nine months of 2022 compared to $0.8 million in the first nine months of 2021. The increase in capital expenditures was primarily driven by growth and maintenance projects to continue to improve operational efficiencies.
The first nine months of 2022 includes $24.2 million in net sales and $0.3 million in operating loss attributable to the DanChem operations acquired in the fourth quarter of 2021.

Macroeconomic Events
In February 2022, the United States announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia in response to the military conflict in Ukraine. As our operations are located in North America, we have no direct exposure to Russia and Ukraine. However, we are actively monitoring the broader economic impact of the crisis, especially the potential impact on commodity and fuel prices, and the potential decreased demand for our products.

There are additional macroeconomic uncertainties, including continued global supply chain constraints, labor shortages and the continuing impact of inflation, which continues to impact the Company's raw material and distribution costs. The Company continues efforts to implement price increases to offset these inflationary pressures and continues to take action to improve working capital and evaluate other opportunities to maintain and improve financial performance in the short and long term.

The nine months ended September 30, 2022, effective tax rate was lower than the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0% primarily due to the year-to-date release of federal valuation allowances.
During the nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company continued to generate pre-tax profits and as a result of sustained profitability evidenced by a strong earnings history and additional positive evidence, the Company determined it was more likely than not it would be able to support realization of certain deferred tax assets and released valuation allowances of $1.9 million. The remaining valuation allowances relate to certain U.S. state deferred tax assets that are not considered realizable based on the assessment of all available evidence as of September 30, 2022.
The three and nine months ended September 30, 2021 effective tax rates approximated the U.S. statutory rate of 21.0%.

Non-GAAP Financial Measures
To supplement our consolidated financial statements, which are prepared and presented in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States ("GAAP"), we use the following non-GAAP financial measures: EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA. Management believes that these non-GAAP measures are useful because they are key measures used by our management team to evaluate our operating performance, generate future operating plans and make strategic decisions as well as allow readers to compare the financial results between periods. Non-GAAP measures should not be considered as an alternative to any measure of performance or financial condition as promulgated under GAAP, and investors should consider the Company's performance and financial condition as reported under GAAP and all other relevant information when assessing the performance or financial condition of the Company. Non-GAAP measures have limitations as analytical tools, and investors should not consider them in isolation or as a substitute for analysis of the Company's results or financial condition as reported under GAAP.
EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA
We define "EBITDA" as earnings before interest (including change in fair value of interest rate swap), income taxes, depreciation and amortization. We define "Adjusted EBITDA" as EBITDA further adjusted for the impact of non-cash and other items we do not consider in our evaluation of ongoing performance. These items include: goodwill impairment, asset impairment, gain on lease modification, stock-based compensation, non-cash lease cost, acquisition costs and other fees, proxy contest costs and recoveries, shelf registration costs, loss on extinguishment of debt, earn-out adjustments, realized and unrealized (gains) and losses on investments in equity securities and other investments, retention costs and restructuring and severance costs from net income. We caution investors that amounts presented in accordance with our definitions of EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA may not be comparable to similar measures disclosed by other companies because not all companies calculate EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA in the same manner. We present EBITDA and Adjusted EBITDA because we consider them to be important supplemental measures of our performance and investors' understanding of our performance is enhanced by including these non-GAAP financial measures as a reasonable basis for comparing our ongoing results of operations.

Liquidity and Capital Resources
We closely manage our liquidity and capital resources. Our liquidity requirements depend on key variables, including level of investment required to support our business strategies, the performance of our business, capital expenditures, credit facilities and working capital management. Capital expenditures and share repurchases are a component of our cash flow and capital management strategy which we can adjust in response to economic and other changes in our business environment. We have a disciplined approach to capital allocation focusing on priorities that support our business and growth.
Sources of Liquidity
Funds generated by operating activities supplemented by our available cash and cash equivalents and our credit facilities are our most significant sources of liquidity. As of September 30, 2022, we held $0.5 million of cash and cash equivalents, as well as $36.7 million of remaining available capacity on our revolving line of credit. We believe our sources of liquidity will be sufficient to fund operations and anticipated capital expenditures as well as repay our debt obligations as they become due over the next 12 months and beyond.
Cash Flows

Cash flows from total operations were as follows:
Nine Months Ended September 30,
(in thousands) 2022 2021
Total cash provided by (used in):
Operating activities $ 993 $ 16,186
Investing activities (3,462) 293
Financing activities 980 (15,541)
Net (decrease) increase in cash and cash equivalents $ (1,489) $ 938

Operating Activities
The decrease in cash provided by operating activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to cash provided by operating activities in the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was primarily driven by changes in working capital. Changes in working capital can vary significantly depending on factors such as the timing of inventory production and purchases, customer payments of accounts receivable and payments to vendors in the regular course of business. Inventory decreased operating cash flows for the first nine months of 2022 by $36.1 million compared to a decrease of $15.5 million for the first nine months of 2021. The increase in inventory is primarily due to product cost and freight inflation over the prior year, partially offset by slightly higher inventory turns year-over-year.
Investing Activities
Net cash used in investing activities primarily consists of transactions related to capital expenditures. The increase in cash used in investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to the cash provided by investing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was primarily due to increases in capital expenditures in the current year compared to the prior year and lower proceeds received from property, plant and equipment disposal activities in the current year.
Financing Activities
Net cash provided by financing activities primarily consists of transactions related to our long-term debt and earn-out liabilities. The increase in cash provided by financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2022, compared to cash used in financing activities for the nine months ended September 30, 2021, was primarily due to increased borrowings under the Company's credit facility, proceeds received under the note payable associated with the Company's insurance financing agreement and decreased payments for the Company's earnout liabilities.
28

Short-term Debt
The Company has a note payable in the amount of $1.0 million with an annual interest rate of 2.77% maturing April 1, 2023, associated with the financing of the Company's insurance premium in the current year. As of September 30, 2022, the outstanding balance was $0.6 million.
Long-term Debt
The Company and its subsidiaries have a Credit Agreement with BMO providing the Company with a four-year revolving credit facility, maturing on January 15, 2025, and providing the Company with up to $150.0 million of borrowing capacity. As of September 30, 2022, the Company had $72.6 million of total borrowings outstanding with its lender, an increase of $2.2 million from the balance at December 31, 2021. The Facility contains covenants requiring the maintenance of a minimum consolidated fixed charge coverage ratio if excess availability falls below the greater of (i) $7.5 million and (ii) 10% of the revolving credit facility (currently $10.5 million). As of September 30, 2022, the Company was in compliance with all debt covenants. See Note 8 in the notes to the unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for additional information on the Company's line of credit.
Share Repurchases and Dividends
We have a share repurchase program, authorized by the Company's Board of Directors, that is executed through purchases made from time to time at prevailing market prices, through open market or privately negotiated transactions, depending on market conditions. Shares repurchased are returned to status of authorized, but unissued shares of common stock or held in treasury. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2022, the Company purchased 30,200 shares under the stock repurchase program at an average price of approximately $16.29 per share for an aggregate amount of $0.5 million. During the three and nine months ended September 30, 2021, the Company purchased no shares under the stock repurchase program.
As of September 30, 2022, the Company has 760,183 shares of its share repurchase authorization remaining.
At the end of each fiscal year the Board of Directors reviews the financial performance and capital needed to support future growth to determine the amount of cash dividend, if any, which is appropriate. In 2021, no dividends were declared or paid by the Company.
Other Financial Measures
Below are additional financial measures that we believe are important in understanding the Company's liquidity position from year to year. The metrics are defined as:

Liquidity Measure:
• Current ratio = current assets divided by current liabilities. The current ratio will be determined by the Company using generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied.
Leverage Measure:
• Debt to capital = total debt divided by total capital. The debt to capital ratio will be determined by the Company using generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied.
Profitability Ratio:
• Return on average equity ("ROAE") = net income divided by the trailing 12-month average of equity. The ROAE will be determined by the Company using generally accepted accounting principles, consistently applied.

Results of these additional measures are as follows:
September 30, 2022 December 31, 2021
Current ratio 3.3 3.3
Debt to capital 35% 39%
Return on average equity 26.3% 21.1%
29

Material Cash Requirements from Contractual and Other Obligations
As of September 30, 2022, our material cash requirements for our known contractual and other obligations were as follows:
• Debt Obligations and Interest Payments - Outstanding obligations on our revolving credit facility and term loan were $68.3 million and $4.3 million, respectively, with $2.5 million payable within 12 months. The interest payments on our remaining borrowings will be determined based upon the average outstanding balance of our borrowings and the prevailing interest rate during that time. Outstanding obligations on our note payable were $0.6 million, which matures within 12 months. Interest payments on the remaining note payable borrowings will be based on an interest rate of 2.77%. See Note 8 for further detail of our debt and the timing of expected future payments.
• Operating and Finance Leases - The Company enters into various lease agreements for the real estate and manufacturing equipment used in the normal course of business. Operating and finance lease obligations were $33.8 million, with $1.3 million payable within 12 months. See Note 9 for further detail of our lease obligations and the timing of expected future payments.
The Company has no off-balance sheet arrangements that are reasonably likely to have a material current or future effect on the Company's financial position, revenues, results of operations, liquidity, or capital expenditures. We expect capital spending to be as much as $3.5 million for the remainder of fiscal 2022.
Critical Accounting Policies and Estimates
We describe our significant accounting policies in Note 1, Summary of Significant Accounting Policies , in the notes to the consolidated financial statements presented in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. We discuss our critical accounting estimates in Item 7, Management's Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations , in the Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021. There have been no significant changes in our significant accounting policies or critical accounting estimates since the end of 2021.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures about Market Risks
We are a smaller reporting company as defined in Rule 12b-2 of the Exchange Act; therefore, we are not required to provide the information required by this Item.
Item 4. Controls and Procedures
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
The term “disclosure controls and procedures” is defined in Rule 13a-15(e) of the Exchange Act as “controls and other procedures of an issuer that are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed by the issuer in the reports that it files or submits under the Exchange Act are recorded, processed, summarized and reported, within the time periods specified in the SEC rules and forms.” The Company’s disclosure controls and procedures are designed to ensure that material information relating to the Company and its consolidated subsidiaries is accumulated and communicated to its management, including its Chief Executive Officer and its Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures. The Company’s management, with the participation of its Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, conducted an evaluation of the effectiveness of the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures as of September 30, 2022. Based upon that evaluation, the Company’s Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer have concluded that the Company’s disclosure controls and procedures were not effective as of September 30, 2022, because of the previously reported material weaknesses in internal control over financial reporting, as described below.
Previously Reported Material Weaknesses in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
Management is responsible for establishing and maintaining adequate internal control over financial reporting, as such term is defined in Exchange Act Rules 13a-15(f) and 15f-15(f). As reported in our 2021 Form 10-K, we did not maintain effective internal control over financial reporting as of December 31, 2021 as a result of material weaknesses in the control environment and control activities areas. A material weakness (as defined in Rule 12b-2 under the Exchange Act) is a deficiency, or combination of deficiencies, in internal control over financial reporting such that there is a reasonable possibility that a material misstatement of our annual or interim financial statements will not be prevented or detected on a timely basis. Refer to our 2021 Form 10-K for a description of our material weaknesses.

Ongoing Remediation Efforts to Address Material Weaknesses
Our material weaknesses were not remediated at September 30, 2022; however, during the nine months ended September 30, 2022, management has undertaken steps toward remediation of our material weaknesses identified in our internal control over financial reporting. Our Board of Directors and management are committed to the continued implementation of remediation efforts to address the material weaknesses. As part of the overall remediation plan, the Company is designing and implementing review and approval controls over the data utilized in various accounting processes. These controls will address the accuracy, timely recording and completeness of data used in the determination of significant accounting estimates, reserves and valuations as well as presentation and disclosures in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The following steps are among the measures taken by the Company with a number of these initiatives directly related to strengthening our controls and addressing specific control deficiencies which contributed to the material weaknesses. Because of these efforts, as of the date of this filing, the Company believes it has made progress toward remediating the underlying causes of the remaining material weaknesses. The steps taken during the nine months ended September 30, 2022 to remediate the deficiencies underlying the material weaknesses include:
• Engaging an outside service provider to assist management with the remediation efforts including to help review and make recommendations with respect to the redesign and implementation of our internal controls over financial reporting.
• Engaging Senior Leadership across the organization to better define its ownership of areas of internal controls and remediation.
• Hiring accounting and finance resources with relevant public company experience as well as filling key leadership roles in accounting and finance to enhance the capabilities of accounting and finance across the organization.
• Providing and expanding relevant training on internal controls over financial reporting to control owners and control preparers across the organization to reinforce the importance of a strong control environment.
• Developing enhanced policies and procedures relating to documentation of control activities performed including those that reflect the control attributes performed and the demonstration of completeness and accuracy of the data used in the control.
• Designing and implementing enhanced procedures and controls over the period-end close process and related documentation including but not limited to, period end checklists, review and approval of journal entries, account reconciliations and account analysis and financial statement analysis and thresholds. Additional time is needed to demonstrate sustainability as it relates to the effectiveness of the revised controls.
• Designing and enhancing procedures to ensure critical inputs affecting the accuracy and timeliness of revenue recognition. We are in the process of implementing these enhancements and additional time is needed to demonstrate sustainability as it relates to the effectiveness of the revised controls.
• Designing and enhancing improved review and approval controls across the Company to ensure that revenue, including nonroutine revenue transactions, is recognized consistently in accordance with the terms of the customer contracts and U.S. GAAP. We are in the process of implementing these enhancements and additional time is needed to demonstrate sustainability as it relates to the effectiveness of the revised controls.
• Designing and enhancing improved procedures over the Company's review and approval of obsolescence of inventories. We are in the process of implementing these enhancements and additional time is needed to demonstrate sustainability as it relates to the effectiveness of the revised controls.
The Audit Committee of the Board of Directors is monitoring management's ongoing remediation efforts. With the Audit Committee's oversight, management has dedicated significant resources and efforts to improve our internal control environment to remedy the identified material weaknesses. As we continue to evaluate and implement improvements to our internal control over financial reporting, our management may decide to take additional measures to address our control deficiencies or to modify the remediation efforts undertaken. Because the reliability of the internal control process requires repeatable execution, our material weaknesses cannot be considered fully remediated until all remedial processes and procedures (including additional remediation efforts identified by our senior management as necessary) have been implemented, each applicable control has operated for a sufficient period of time and management has concluded, through testing, that the controls are operating effectively. Until all identified material weaknesses are remediated, we will not be able to assert that our internal controls are effective.

Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting

PART II
Item 1. Legal Proceedings
It is not unusual for us and our subsidiaries to be involved in various unresolved legal actions, administrative proceedings and claims in the ordinary course of business involving, among other things, product liability, commercial, employment, workers' compensation, and environmental matters. We establish reserves in a manner that is consistent with accounting principles generally accepted in the U.S. for costs associated with such matters when a liability is probable and those costs are capable of being reasonably estimated. We cannot predict with any certainty the outcome of these unresolved legal actions or the range of possible loss or recovery. Based on current information, however, we believe that the eventual outcome of these unresolved legal actions, either individually or in the aggregate, will not have a material adverse effect on our financial position, results of operations or cash flows. There were no material changes in our Legal Proceedings, as discussed in Part I, Item 3 in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the period ending December 31, 2021.
Item 1A. Risk Factors
There were no material changes in our assessment of risk factors as discussed in Part I, Item 1A in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2021.
