Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
Note 1 —
Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements of Lawson Products, Inc. (the “Company”) have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles for interim financial information, the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 10 of Regulation S-X. Accordingly, they do not contain all disclosures required by generally accepted accounting principles. Reference should be made to the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020. In the opinion of the Company, all normal recurring adjustments have been made that are necessary to present fairly the results of operations for the interim periods. Operating results for the three and six month periods ended June 30, 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the year ending December 31, 2021.
The Company has
two
operating segments. The Lawson operating segment, distributes maintenance, repair and operations ("MRO") products to customers primarily through a network of sales representatives offering vendor managed inventory ("VMI") service to customers throughout the United States and Canada. The Bolt Supply House Ltd. ("Bolt Supply") operating segment, distributes MRO products primarily through its branches located in Western Canada. Bolt Supply had
14
b
ranches in operation at the end of the second quarter 2021. See the 2020 Consolidated Financial Statements included in the Company's Annual Report on Form 10K for further details of the significant accounting policies of the Company.
Note 2 -
Acquisition
On August 31, 2020, the Company acquired Partsmaster from NCH Corporation. Partsmaster is a leading maintenance, MRO solutions provider that serves approximately
16,000
customers with approximately
200
sales representatives. The acquisition was made primarily to expand the Company's sales coverage, expand product lines, add experienced sales representatives, and leverage the Company's infrastructure.
The purchase price was $
35.3
million in cash plus the assumption of certain liabilities. The Company paid $
2.3
million of the purchase price in cash at closing and paid the remaining $
33.0
million in May 2021. The payment obligation has been discounted to present value and was recognized as an accrued acquisition liability of $
32.7
million as of December 31, 2020 in the Company's condensed consolidated balance sheet. Interest expense of $
0.1
million and $
0.3
million was recorded in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, respectively. P
ayment was guaranteed under the Purchase Agreement, and included the issuance of a $
33.0
million irrevocable standby letter of credit. The letter of credit was released upon payment of the acquisition liability in May 2021.
The purchase price of the acquisition was allocated to the fair value of Partsmaster’s assets and liabilities on the acquisition date. The fair market value appraisals of the majority of the assets and liabilities was determined by a third party valuation firm using management estimates and assumptions including intangible assets of $
5.0
million for customer relationships and $
2.8
million for trade names, and their estimated useful lives of
10
and
5
years, respectively. The $
15.8
million allocated to goodwill reflects the purchase price less the fair market value of the identifiable net assets. The goodwill is attributable to the workforce of the acquired business and the synergies expected to arise after Lawson's acquisition of Partsmaster. The entire amount of goodwill is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
The accounting for this acquisition was complete as of June 30, 2021.
Partsmaster contributed $
15.3
million of revenue and $
0.5
million of operating income in the second quarter of 2021 and $
31.0
million of revenue and $
1.1
million of operating income in the first six months of 2021.
A summary of the purchase price allocation of the acquisition is as follows (Dollars in thousands):

The unaudited pro forma revenue and net income for the Company for the three months ended June 30, 2020, assuming the Partsmaster acquisition closed on January 1, 2019, was
$
91.1
million
and
$
1.4
million
, respectively. The unaudited pro forma revenue and net income for the Company for the six months ended June 30, 2020, assuming the Partsmaster acquisition closed on January 1, 2019, was $
197.3
million and $
14.3
million, respectively.
The pro forma disclosures include adjustments for amortization of intangible assets, implied interest expense and acquisition costs to reflect results as if the acquisition of Partsmaster had closed on January 1, 2019 rather than on the actual acquisition date. This pro forma information utilizes certain estimates, is presented for illustrative purposes only and is not intended to be indicative of the actual results of operation. In addition, future results may vary significantly from the results
reflected in the pro forma information. The unaudited pro forma financial information does not reflect the impact of future positive or negative events that may occur after the acquisition, such as anticipated cost savings from operating synergies.
Note 3 -
Revenue Recognition
As part of the Company's revenue recognition analysis, it concluded that it has
two
separate performance obligations, and accordingly, two separate revenue streams: products and services. Under the definition of a contract as defined by ASC 606, the Company considers contracts to be created at the time an order to purchase product and services is agreed upon regardless of whether or not there is a written contract.
Performance Obligations
The Company has
two
operating segments; the Lawson segment and the Bolt Supply segment.
The Lawson segment has two distinct performance obligations from contracts with its customers: a product performance obligation and a service performance obligation. While the Company offers both a product and a service obligation, customers receive one invoice per transaction with no price breakout between these obligations. The Company does not separately price performance obligations.
The Lawson segment generates revenue primarily from the sale of MRO products to its customers. Revenues related to product sales is recognized at the time that control of the product has been transferred to the customer, either at the time the product is shipped or the time the product has been received by the customer. The Company does not commit to long-term contracts to sell customers a certain minimum quantity of products.
The Lawson segment, including the recent Partsmaster acquisition, offers a vendor managed inventory ("VMI") service proposition to its customers. A portion of these services, primarily related to stocking of product and maintenance of the MRO inventory, is provided a short period of time after control of the purchased product has been transferred to the customer. Since some components of VMI service have not been provided at the time the control of the product transfers to the customer, that portion of expected consideration is deferred until the time that those services have been provided.
The Bolt Supply segment provides product sales and does not provide VMI services or other services. Revenue is recognized at the time that control of the product has been transferred to the customer which is either upon delivery or shipment depending on the terms with the customer.
In previous financial statements, the Company presented the disaggregated components of total revenue: product revenue and service revenue, along with the cost of sales associated with each of these revenue streams as the service revenues exceeded 10% of consolidated revenue. Since the Company qualifies as a smaller reporting company, the Company has elected to discontinue disclosure of the disaggregated components of revenue and cost of sales in its condensed consolidated statements of income and comprehensive income and in the related notes to the condensed consolidated financial statements.
For the three months ended June 30, 2020, service revenue of $
7.6
million was reported as service revenue which has now been combined and reported within total revenue. For the six months ended June 30, 2020, service revenue of $
17.3
million was reported as service revenue, which has now been combined and reported within total revenue.

Activities as lessor
Prior to acquisition, Partsmaster leased parts washer machines to customers through its Torrents leasing program. The Torrents leasing program comprised a minor portion of the Partsmaster business. The Company will continue the leasing program for the foreseeable future. These leases are classified as operating leases. The leased machines are recognized as fixed assets on the Company's consolidated balance sheet and the leasing revenue is recognized on a straight line basis. The Torrents machine leasing program generated $
0.7
million and $
1.4
million of revenue in the three and six months ended June 30, 2021. The Company has adopted the practical expedient not to separate non-lease components that would be within the scope of ASC 606 from the associated lease components as the relevant criteria under ASC 842 are met.
Note 4 —
Restricted Cash
The Company has agreed to maintain $
0.8
million in a money market account as collateral for an outside party that is providing certain commercial card processing services for the Company. The Company has also agreed to maintain $

% effective tax rate for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The effective tax rate is higher than the U.S. statutory rate due primarily to state taxes and other permanent items. Income tax expense of $
5.3
million, a
28.6
% effective tax rate was recorded for the six months ended June 30, 2020. The effective tax rate is higher than the U.S. statutory rate due primarily to state taxes, recording of reserves for uncertain tax positions, and an inclusion for Global Intangible Low Tax Income.
The Company and its subsidiaries are subject to U.S. Federal income tax, as well as income tax of multiple state and foreign jurisdictions. As of June 30, 2021, the Company is subject to U.S. Federal income tax examinations for the years 2017 through 2019 and income tax examinations from various other jurisdictions for the years 2013 through 2019.
Earnings from the Company’s foreign subsidiaries are considered to be indefinitely reinvested. A distribution of these non-U.S. earnings in the form of dividends or otherwise may subject the Company to foreign withholding taxes and U.S. federal and state taxes.
Note 15 —
Contingent Liabilities
In 2012, it was determined a Company owned site in Decatur, Alabama, contained hazardous substances in the soil and groundwater as a result of historical operations prior to the Company's ownership. The Company retained an environmental consulting firm to further investigate the contamination, prepare a remediation plan, and enroll the site in the Alabama Department of Environmental Management (“ADEM") voluntary cleanup program.
The remediation plan, approved by ADEM in 2018, consists of chemical injections throughout the affected area and subsequent monitoring. The injection process was completed in the first quarter of 2019 and monitoring is ongoing pending certification by ADEM. At June 30, 2021 estimated costs for future monitoring are not significant and have been fully accrued. The Company does not expect to capitalize any amounts related to the remediation plan.
Note 16 —
Related Party Transaction
During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021, the Company purchased approximately $
0.1
million of inventory from a company owned by an immediate relative of a Board member at fair market value. The Company paid substantially all of the amount owed in the second quarter and therefore immaterial remaining liabilities exist as of June 30, 2021.
Note 17 –
Segment Information
The Company's operating segments, Lawson and Bolt, also represent its reportable segments because of differences in the businesses' financial characteristics and the methods they employ to deliver product to customers. The results of the Company's operating segments are reviewed by the Company’s chief operating decision maker responsible for reviewing operating performance and allocating resources. The Lawson segment primarily relies on its large network of sales representatives to visit the customer at the customers' location and produce sales orders for product that is then shipped to the customer and also provides VMI services. The Bolt segment primarily sells product to customers when the customers visit one of Bolt's
14
b
ranch locations and the product is delivered to the customers at the point of sale. The Bolt segment total assets include the value of the acquired intangibles and the related amortization within its operating income.
Financial information for the Company's reportable segments follows:

Note 18 -
COVID-19 Risks and Uncertainties
There is substantial uncertainty as to the effect the COVID-19 pandemic will have on the future results of the Company. Various events related to COVID-19 may impact revenue, product sourcing, sales functions, and customers' ability to pay timely.
The government of the State of Illinois defines Lawson Products as an essential business. A change in this status could result in the temporary closure of our business. The COVID-19 pandemic could result in a temporary closure of any or all of our office space, distribution facilities, or Bolt branch locations, as well as disruptions to our supply chain and interactions with customers. The pandemic may have a material adverse impact on future financial results, liquidity, and overall performance of the Company. It is reasonably possible that estimates made in the financial statements may be materially and adversely impacted as a result of these conditions, including delay in payment of receivables, impairment losses related to goodwill and other long-lived assets, and inability to utilize deferred tax assets.
On March 27, 2020, Congress enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act to provide certain relief as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. The Company has elected to defer the employer side social security payments in accordance with the CARES Act. The total amount deferred is $
3.5
million, with $
1.7
million expected to be paid in the second half of 2021 and the remainder in 2022.
The Company will continue to evaluate how the provisions of the CARES Act will impact its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The Company will continue to closely monitor the operating environment and will take appropriate actions to protect the
safety for its employees, customers and suppliers.
ITEM 2. MANAGEMENT’S DISCUSSION AND ANALYSIS OF FINANCIAL CONDITION AND RESULTS OF OPERATIONS
Partsmaster Acquisition
In August 2020, we acquired Partsmaster, a leading Maintenance, Repair and Operations ("MRO") distributor from NCH Corporation, with approximately 200 sales representatives and approximately 16,000 customers throughout the United States and Canada. The purchase price of the acquisition was $35.3 million in cash and the assumption of certain liabilities. We paid $2.3 million at the time of the acquisition and paid the remaining $33.0 million in May 2021. Partsmaster contributed $15.3 million of revenue and $0.5 million of operating income in the second quarter of 2021 and $31.0 million of revenue and $1.1 million of operating income in the first six months of 2021.
Additional information related to the Partsmaster acquisition is provided in Note 2 - Acquisition in the notes to the consolidated financial statements.
COVID-19 Pandemic
There is substantial uncertainty as to the effect the COVID-19 pandemic will have on the future results of the Company. Various events related to COVID-19 may impact revenue, product sourcing, sales functions, and customers' ability to pay timely.
The government of the State of Illinois defines Lawson Products as an essential business. A change in this status could result in the temporary closure of our business. The COVID-19 pandemic could result in a temporary closure of any or all of our office space, distribution facilities, or Bolt branch locations, as well as disruptions to our supply chain and interactions with customers. The pandemic may have a material adverse impact on future financial results, liquidity, and overall performance of the Company. It is reasonably possible that estimates made in the financial statements may be materially and adversely impacted as a result of these conditions, including delay in payment of receivables, impairment losses related to goodwill and other long-lived assets, and inability to utilize deferred tax assets.
On March 27, 2020, Congress enacted the Coronavirus Aid, Relief, and Economic Security ("CARES") Act to provide certain relief as a result of the COVID-19 outbreak. The Company has elected to defer the employer side social security payments in accordance with the CARES Act. The total amount deferred is $3.5 million, with $1.7 million expected to be paid in 2021 and the remainder in 2022. The Company will continue to evaluate how the provisions of the CARES Act will impact its financial position, results of operations and cash flows.
The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic occurred in March 2020. This resulted in widespread closures of businesses, decreased travel and other substantial restrictions on economic activity beginning in the first quarter. The most severe restrictions were effective in the second quarter of 2020, particularly the month of April. These restrictions began to be relaxed subsequent to April 2020, which led to an improved business climate and increased economic activity throughout the remainder of the year. The relaxed restrictions continued in the first and second quarters of 2021, which led to increased business activity and contributed to improved operating results compared to the first six months of 2020.
We will continue to closely monitor the overall economic and operating environment and we will take appropriate actions to protect the safety of our employees, customers and suppliers. While COVID-19 continues to negatively impact our sales, cost control measures and ability to effectively service our customers, we have continued to generate positive cash flow that has enabled us to maintain a strong financial position. We plan to continue to respond to pandemic developments in a prompt and disciplined manner with an emphasis on maintaining our strong financial position.
Sales Drivers
The MRO distribution industry is highly fragmented. We compete for business with several national distributors as well as a large number of regional and local distributors. The MRO business is significantly impacted by the overall strength of the manufacturing sector of the U.S. economy which has been significantly affected by the COVID-19 pandemic. One measure used to evaluate the strength of the industrial products market is the PMI index published by the Institute for Supply Management, which is considered by many economists to be a reliable near-term economic barometer of the manufacturing sector. A measure above 50 generally indicates expansion of the manufacturing sector while a measure below 50 generally
represents contraction.
The average monthly PMI was 60.8 in the second quarter of 2021 compared to 45.7 in the second quarter of 2020.
Our sales are also influenced by the number of sales representatives and their productivity. Our average sales rep headcount for the second quarter of 2021 was 1,081 sales representatives, including the Partsmaster sales representatives. This is compared to the average sales rep headcount of 957 sales reps in the second quarter of 2020. Lawson segment sales representative productivity, measured as sales per rep per day and including Partsmaster sales reps, increased 33.0% to $1.361 in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $979 in the prior year quarter. Partsmaster contributed $15.3 million in sales in the second quarter. Excluding the impact of Partsmaster, sales rep productivity measured as average sales per rep per day increased 36.1% compared to the year ago quarter, primarily driven by the improved business conditions and relaxation of pandemic-related restrictions in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the year ago quarter. Additionally we instituted a company-wide price increase on our entire product line in June 2021 in response to rising supplier costs. We plan to continue to concentrate our efforts on increasing the productivity of our sales representatives.
Non-GAAP Financial Measure - Adjusted Non-GAAP Operating Income
We believe that certain non-GAAP financial measures may provide users of this financial information with additional meaningful comparisons between current results and results in prior operating periods. We believe that these non-GAAP financial measures can provide additional meaningful reflection of underlying trends of the business because they provide a comparison of historical information that excludes certain infrequently occurring, seasonal or non-operational items that impact the overall comparability. These non-GAAP financial measures should be viewed in addition to, and not as an alternative for, our reported results prepared in accordance with GAAP.
Adjusted operating income is defined by us as GAAP operating income excluding stock-based compensation, severance expenses, acquisition costs, and other non-recurring items in the period in which these items are incurred. Operating income was $3.4 million for the second quarter of 2021 compared to $0.6 million for the second quarter of 2020. Excluding stock-based compensation, severance expense, acquisition costs and other non-recurring costs, adjusted non-GAAP operating income was $6.8 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $4.8 million in the second quarter of 2020; and $14.1 million of adjusted non-GAAP operating income for the first six months of 2021 compared to $12.7 million of adjusted non-GAAP operating income for the prior year period. The increase in adjusted non-GAAP operating income was driven by increased sales in 2021 as the overall business environment improved and pandemic-related restrictions were relaxed in the first six months of 2021 compared to the prior year, as well as the inclusion of $0.9 million of adjusted non-GAAP operating income from Partsmaster in the second quarter of 2021 and $2.5 million of adjusted non-GAAP operating income from Partsmaster for the first six months of 2021.

Revenue
Total sales increased 47.7% to $106.5 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $72.1 million in the second quarter of 2020.
All customer sales categories were negatively impacted by the impact of the COVID-19 pandemic in the second quarter of 2020. Business conditions have substantially improved in the second quarter of 2021 compared to the second quarter of 2020, which led to greater business activity and increased sales.
Sales from the second quarter of 2021 also benefited from the inclusion of
$15.3 million of Partsmaster sales.
Sales productivity, measured as sales per rep per day, increased 33.0% compared to the second quarter of 2020. Bolt Supply sales also improved 30.8% compared to the prior year quarter. Consolidated average daily sales increased 47.7% to $1.665 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $1.127 million in the prior year quarter. Partsmaster contributed $0.239 million of average daily sales in the second quarter of 2021. Both the second quarter of 2021 and 2020 had 64 selling days. Excluding the impact of foreign currency, average daily sales increased 44.5% in the second quarter of 2021.
Gross Profit
Driven by increased sales, reported gross profit increased $16.3 million to $54.6 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $38.3 million in the prior year quarter. Partsmaster contributed $9.0 million to reported gross profit in the second quarter of 2021 before the classification of certain service-related costs in gross profit. Consolidated gross profit as a percent of sales was 51.3% in the second quarter of 2021 compared to 53.1% in the prior year quarter.
The organic Lawson MRO segment gross margin as a percent of sales declined to 57.3% in the second quarter of 2021 compared to 58.7% a year ago quarter before the classification of certain service-related costs in gross profit, primarily as a result of increased freight and additional costs from global supply chain disruptions in the quarter compared to the prior year quarter and additional inventory reserves related to the rationalization of inventory related to the Partsmaster acquisition.

Selling expenses consist of compensation and support for our sales representatives. Selling expenses increased to $24.2 million in the second quarter of 2021 compared to $16.3 million in the prior year quarter. The increase in selling expense is primarily driven by increased sales, along with the inclusion of $5.3 million in selling expense in the second quarter of 2021 from the Partsmaster acquisition. As a percent of sales, selling expenses slightly increased to 22.7% from 22.6% in the second quarter of 2020 on a higher sales base, partial reinstatement of normalized selling activities not incurred during the pandemic and higher Partsmaster selling expenses as a percent of sales.
General and administrative expenses consist of expenses to operate our distribution network and overhead expenses to manage the business. General and administrative expenses increased to $27.0 million in the second quarter of 2021 from $21.4 million in the prior year quarter. The increased General and administrative expense was driven by the inclusion of Partsmaster operating expenses of $3.3 million, $1.4 million of costs related to the evaluation of the LKCM proposal disclosed in a Schedule 13D amendment filed on May 17, 2021, and restored employee compensation expense compared to the second quarter of 2020. These costs were offset by a decrease in stock-based compensation expense of $1.6 million compared to the second quarter of 2021.
Interest Expense
Interest expense was $0.3 million in the second quarter of 2021, an increase of $0.2 million compared to the second quarter of 2020 primarily due to interest on the accrued acquisition liability.
Other Income, Net
Other income, net increased $0.1 million in the second quarter of 2021 over the prior year quarter primarily due to Canadian currency exchange rate effect.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expense was $0.8 million, resulting in a 21.8% effective tax rate for the three months ended June 30, 2021 compared to an income tax expense of $0.4 million and an effective tax rate of 38.6% for the three months ended June 30, 2020.

Revenue
Revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021 increased 28.8% to $210.1 million from $163.2 million for the six months ended June 30, 2020. All customer sales categories were negatively impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic in the first and second quarters of 2020. Business conditions improved in the first six months of 2021, which led to greater business activity and increased sales. Additionally Partsmaster contributed $31.0 million in sales in the first six months of 2021.
Average daily sales increased 29.7% to $1.654 million in the first six months of 2021 compared to $1.275 million in the prior year period with one fewer selling day in the current year to date period compared to the corresponding prior year period.
Gross Profit
Gross profit increased to $109.2 million in the first six months of 2021 compared to $87.2 million in the first six months of 2020, primarily driven by increased sales and the inclusion of the Partsmaster acquisition. Consolidated gross profit as a percent of sales was 52.0% compared to 53.5% a year ago.
The organic Lawson MRO segment gross profit before the classification of certain service-related costs in gross profit as a percent of sales was 57.8% in the first six months of 2021 compared to 60.3% a year ago, primarily related to increased freight and supply chain costs, as well as changes in product and customer sales mix.

Selling expenses increased to $48.0 million for the first six months of 2021 compared to $36.3 million in the same period a year ago and, as a percent of sales, increased to 22.9% in the first six months of 2021 from 22.2% a year ago. The increase in selling expense is primarily related to increased sales compensation from higher sales, and the inclusion of $10.8 million of selling expenses from the Partsmaster acquisition.
General and administrative expenses increased to $53.0 million in the first six months of 2021 from $31.7 million in the prior year period. This was driven by an increase in stock-based compensation expense of $10.1 million, a portion of which varies with the Company stock price, as well as the inclusion of $7.2 million of general and administrative expense from the Partsmaster acquisition, and restored employee compensation compared to the second quarter of 2020 and $1.4 million of costs related to the evaluation of the LKCM proposal disclosed in a Schedule 13D amendment filed on May 17, 2021.
Interest Expense
Interest expenses increased $0.4 million in the first six months of 2021, due primarily to
interest on the accrued acquisition liability.
Other Income (Expense), Net
Other income (expense), net increased $1.6 million in the first six months of 2021, primarily due to Canadian currency exchange rate effect.
Income Tax Expense
Income tax expenses were $2.1 million resulting in a 24.2% effective tax rate for the first six months of 2021 compared to income tax expense of $5.3 million and a 28.6% effective tax rate for the first six months of 2020.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
Available cash and cash
equivalents were $5.9 million on June 30, 2021 compared to $28.4 million on December 31, 2020. The decrease in available cash is primarily due to the payment of the outstanding liability related to the acquisition of Partsmaster for $33.0 million in May 2021.
Net cash provided by operations for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was $9.3 million, primarily driven by reported operating earnings.
Capital expenditures were $3.9 million and $0.7 million for the six month period ended June 30, 2021 and 2020, respectively, primarily for improvements to our distribution centers and information technology.
Cash provided by financing activities was $4.9 million for the first six months of 2021, primarily due to a net drawdown of $5.0 million of our Revolving Credit Facility driven by the final Partsmaster payment.
In 2019, o
ur Board of Directors authorized a program in which we may repurchase up to $7.5 million of our common stock from time to time in open market transactions, privately negotiated transactions or by other methods. We did not repurchase any shares of stock in the first six months of 2021 under this plan.
The Company anticipates that outstanding stock performance rights with a value of
$9.7 million at June 30, 2021 will be paid out within the next twelve months prior to expiration.
Revolving Credit Facility
On June 30, 2021, we had
$5.0 million in outstanding borrowings and
$91.9 million of borrowing availability remaining, net of outstanding letters of credit, under our Revolving Credit Facility.
We issu
ed a $33.0 million irrevocable standby letter of credit to guarantee payment of the liability related to the Partsmaster acquisition. This letter of credit was released upon payment of the acquisition liability in May 2021.
Along with certain standard terms and conditions of our Credit Agreement, we are able to borrow up to 3.25 times our EBITDA, as defined, and maintain a minimum fixed charge ratio, as defined, of 1.15. As of June 30, 2021, we were in compliance with all financial covenants.
While we were in compliance with our financial covenants included in our Credit Agreement for the quarter ended June 30, 2021. Failure to meet the covenant requirements of the Credit Agreement in future quarters could lead to higher financing costs, increased restrictions, or reduce or eliminate our ability to borrow funds and could have a material adverse effect on our business, financial condition and results of operations.
We believe cash provided by operations and funds available under our Credit Agreement are sufficient to fund our operating requirements, strategic initiatives and capital improvements, including the potential impact of COVID-19 over the next twelve months although we cannot provide assurance that events beyond our control will not have a material adverse impact on our liquidity.
ITEM 3. QUANTITATIVE AND QUALITATIVE DISCLOSURES ABOUT MARKET RISK
ITEM 3 of Part I is inapplicable and has been omitted from this report.
ITEM 4. CONTROLS AND PROCEDURES
Disclosure Controls and Procedures
Under the supervision and with the participation of our senior management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, we conducted 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) under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Exchange Act”), as of the end of the period covered by this report (the “Evaluation Date”). Based on this evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer concluded as of the Evaluation Date that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective such that the information relating to Lawson, including our consolidated subsidiaries, required to be disclosed in our SEC reports (i) is recorded, processed, summarized and reported within the time periods specified in SEC rules and forms, and (ii) includes, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosure.
Changes in Internal Control over Financial Reporting
There were no changes in our internal control over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2021 that materially affected or are reasonably likely to materially offset our internal control over financial reporting. We are in the process of integrating the internal control procedures of Partsmaster into our internal co
ntrol structure. Partsmaster constituted approximately 15% of total assets as of June 30, 2021 and approximately 14% of revenue and approximately 14% of operating income in the first six months of 2021.
