GRAHAM CORPORATION AND SUBSIDIARIES
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
June 30, 2011 and 2010
(Unaudited)
(Amounts in thousands, except per share data)
NOTE 1 — BASIS OF PRESENTATION:
Graham Corporation’s (the “Company’s”) Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include (i)
its wholly-owned foreign subsidiary located in China at June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011 and for
the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 and (ii) its wholly-owned domestic subsidiary located
in Lapeer, Michigan at June 30, 2011 and for the three months
ended June 30, 2011. See Note 2. The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements have been prepared in accordance with accounting
principles generally accepted in the U.S. (“GAAP”) for interim financial information and the
instructions to Form 10-Q and Rule 10-01 of Regulation S-X, each as promulgated by the Securities
and Exchange Commission. The Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements do not include
all information and notes required by GAAP for complete financial statements. The unaudited
Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2011 presented herein was derived from the
Company’s audited Consolidated Balance Sheet as of March 31, 2011. For additional information,
please refer to the consolidated financial statements and notes included in the Company’s Annual
Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended March 31, 2011 (“fiscal 2011”). In the opinion of
management, all adjustments, including normal recurring accruals considered necessary for a fair
presentation, have been included in the Company’s Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements.
The Company’s results of operations and cash flows for the three months ended June 30, 2011
are not necessarily indicative of the results that may be expected for the fiscal year ending March
31, 2012 (“fiscal 2012”).
NOTE 2 — ACQUISITION:
On December 14, 2010, the Company completed its acquisition of Energy Steel & Supply Co.
(“Energy Steel”), a privately-owned nuclear code accredited fabrication and specialty machining
company located in Lapeer, Michigan dedicated primarily to the nuclear power industry. The Company
believes that this acquisition furthers its growth strategy through market and product
diversification, broadens its offerings to the energy markets and strengthens its presence in the
nuclear sector.
The transaction was accounted for under the acquisition method of accounting. Accordingly,
the results of Energy Steel were included in the Company’s Consolidated Financial Statements from
the date of acquisition. The purchase price was $17,899 in cash. The purchase agreement also
included a contingent earn-out, which ranges from $0 to $2,000, dependent upon
Energy Steel’s earnings performance in calendar years 2011 and 2012. If achieved, the
earn-out
7
Table of Contents
will be payable in fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2013. A liability of $1,498 was recorded for
the contingent earn-out and was treated as additional purchase price. In addition, the Company and
Energy Steel entered into a five year lease agreement with ESSC Investments, LLC for Energy Steel’s
manufacturing and office facilities located in Lapeer, Michigan which lease includes an option to
renew the lease for an additional five year term. The Company and Energy Steel also have an option
to purchase the leased facility for $2,500 at any time during the first two years of the lease
term. ESSC Investments, LLC is partly owned by the President and former sole shareholder of Energy
Steel.
The cost of the acquisition was preliminarily allocated to the assets acquired and liabilities
assumed based upon their estimated fair values at the date of the acquisition and the amount
exceeding the fair value of $7,404 was recorded as goodwill, which is not deductible for tax
purposes. As the values of certain assets and liabilities are preliminary in nature, they are
subject to adjustment as additional information is obtained, including, but not limited to,
settlement of the contingent payment and the final reconciliation and confirmation of tangible
assets. The valuations will be finalized within twelve months of the close of the acquisition.
Any changes to the preliminary valuation may result in material adjustments to the fair value of
the assets and liabilities acquired, as well as goodwill.
The following table summarizes the preliminary allocation of the cost of the acquisition to
the assets acquired and liabilities assumed as of the close of the acquisition:

The fair values of the assets acquired and liabilities assumed were preliminarily
determined using one of three valuation approaches: (i) market; (ii) income; and (iii) cost. The
selection of a particular method for a given asset depended on the reliability of available data
and the nature of the asset, among other considerations. The market approach, which estimates the
value for a subject asset based on available market pricing for comparable assets, was utilized for
work in process inventory. The income approach, which estimates the value for a subject asset
based on the present value of cash flows projected to be generated by the asset, was used for
certain intangible assets such as permits, tradename and backlog. The projected cash flows were
discounted at a required rate of return that reflects the relative risk of the Energy Steel
transaction and the time value of money. The projected cash flows for each asset considered
multiple factors, including current revenue from existing customers, the competition limiting
effect of nuclear permits due to the time and effort required to obtain them, and expected profit
margins giving consideration to historical and expected margins. The cost approach was used for the
majority of personal property, raw materials inventory and customer relationships. The
8
Table of Contents
cost to replace a given asset reflects the estimated replacement cost for the asset, less an allowance for
loss in value due to depreciation or obsolescence, with specific consideration given to economic
obsolescence if indicated.
The fair value of the work in process inventory acquired was estimated by applying a version
of the market approach known as the comparable sales method. This approach estimates the fair
value of the asset by calculating the potential sales generated from selling the inventory and
subtracting from it the costs related to the sale of that inventory and a reasonable profit
allowance. Based upon this methodology, the Company recorded the inventory acquired at fair value
resulting in an increase in inventory of $196. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the
Company expensed as cost of sales $38 of the step-up value relating to the acquired inventory sold
during the first quarter of fiscal 2012. As of June 30, 2011, there was $11 of inventory step-up
value remaining in inventory to be expensed. Raw materials inventory was valued at replacement
cost.
The purchase price was allocated to specific intangible assets as follows:
| Fair Value | Weighted average | |||||||
| assigned | amortization period | |||||||
|
Intangibles subject to amortization
|
||||||||
|
Backlog
|
$ | 170 | 6 months | |||||

||||||||
|
|
||||||||

|
||||||||

|
Tradename
|
2,500 | indefinite | ||||||
|
|
||||||||
|
|
$ | 12,800 | ||||||
|
|
||||||||
Backlog consists of firm purchase orders received from customers that had not yet entered
production or were in production at the date of the acquisition. The fair value of backlog was
computed as the present value of the expected sales attributable to backlog less the remaining
costs to fulfill the backlog. The life was based upon the period of time in which the backlog is
expected to be converted to sales.
Customer relationships represent the estimated fair value of customer relationships Energy
Steel has with nuclear power plants as of the acquisition date. These relationships were valued
using the replacement cost method based upon the cost to obtain and retain the limited number of
customers in the nuclear power market. The Company determined that the estimated useful life of
the intangible assets associated with the existing customer relationships is 15 years. This life
was based upon historical customer attrition and management’s understanding of the industry and
regulatory environment.
Nuclear permits are required and critical to generate all of the revenue of Energy Steel, due
to the strict regulatory environment of the nuclear industry. The permits are inherently valuable
as a result of their competition-limiting effect due to the significant time, effort and resources
required to obtain them. The Company intends to continually renew the permits and maintain all
quality programs and processes, as well as abide by all required regulations of the nuclear
industry, therefore, an indefinite life has been assigned to the permits. The permits will be
tested annually for impairment. In the first quarter of fiscal 2012, the Company renewed the
permits.

The tradename represents the estimated fair value of the corporate name acquired from Energy
Steel which will be utilized by the Company in the future. The Company believes the use of the
tradename, which the Company expects will be instrumental in enabling it to maintain or expand its
market share, is inherently valuable. The Company currently intends to utilize the tradename for
an indefinite period of time, therefore, the intangible asset is not being amortized but will be
tested for impairment on an annual basis.
The excess of the purchase price over the preliminary fair value of net tangible and
intangible assets acquired of $7,404 was allocated to goodwill. Various factors contributed to the
establishment of goodwill, including the value of Energy Steel’s highly trained assembled workforce
and management team and the expected revenue growth over time that is attributable to increased
market penetration.
NOTE 3 — REVENUE RECOGNITION:
The Company recognizes revenue on all contracts with a planned manufacturing process in excess
of four weeks (which approximates 575 direct labor hours) using the percentage-of-completion
method. The majority of the Company’s revenue is recognized under this methodology. The
percentage-of-completion method is determined by comparing actual labor incurred to a specific date
to management’s estimate of the total labor to be incurred on each contract. Contracts in progress
are reviewed monthly, and sales and earnings are adjusted in current accounting periods based on
revisions in the contract value and estimated costs at completion. Losses on contracts are
recognized immediately when evident. There is no reserve for credit losses related to unbilled
revenue recorded for contracts accounted for on the percentage of completion method. Any reserve
for credit losses related to unbilled revenue is recorded as a reduction to revenue.
Revenue on contracts not accounted for using the percentage-of-completion method is recognized
utilizing the completed contract method. The majority of the Company’s contracts have a planned
manufacturing process of less than four weeks and the results reported under this method do not
vary materially from the percentage-of-completion method. The Company recognizes revenue and all
related costs on these contracts upon substantial completion or shipment to the customer.
Substantial completion is consistently defined as at least 95% complete with regard to direct labor
hours. Customer acceptance is generally required throughout the construction process and the
Company has no further material obligations under its contracts after the revenue is recognized.
NOTE 4 — INVESTMENTS:
Investments consist solely of fixed-income debt securities issued by the U.S. Treasury with
original maturities of greater than three months and less than one year. All investments are
classified as held-to-maturity, as the Company has the intent and ability to hold the securities to
maturity. The investments are stated at amortized cost which approximates fair value. All
investments held by the Company at June 30, 2011 are scheduled to mature between July 7, 2011
and September 1, 2011.

NOTE 5 — INVENTORIES:
Inventories are stated at the lower of cost or market, using the average cost method. For
contracts accounted for on the completed contract method, progress payments received are netted
against inventory to the extent the payment is less than the inventory balance relating to the
applicable contract. Progress payments that are in excess of the corresponding inventory balance
are presented as customer deposits in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. Unbilled revenue
in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets represents revenue recognized that has not been billed
to customers on contracts accounted for on the percentage-of-completion method. For contracts
accounted for on the percentage-of—completion method, progress payments are netted against
unbilled revenue to the extent the payment is less than the unbilled revenue for the applicable
contract. Progress payments exceeding unbilled revenue are netted against inventory to the extent
the payment is less than or equal to the inventory balance relating to the applicable contract, and
the excess is presented as customer deposits in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

NOTE 7 — STOCK-BASED COMPENSATION:
The Amended and Restated 2000 Graham Corporation Incentive Plan to Increase Shareholder Value
provides for the issuance of up to 1,375 shares of common stock in connection with grants of
incentive stock options, non-qualified stock options, stock awards and performance awards to
officers, key employees and outside directors; provided, however, that no more than 250 shares of
common stock may be used for awards other than stock options. Stock options may be granted at
prices not less than the fair market value at the date of grant and expire no later than ten years
after the date of grant.
Stock option awards granted in the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were 9 and 20,
respectively. The stock option awards vest 33⅓% per year over a three-year term. All stock
options have a term of ten years from their grant date.
12
Table of Contents
Restricted stock awards granted in the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were
27 and 24, respectively. Performance-vested restricted stock awards granted to officers in fiscal
2012 and fiscal 2011 vest 100% on the third anniversary of the grant date, subject to the
satisfaction of the performance metrics established for the applicable three-year period.
Time-vested restricted stock awards granted to officers in fiscal 2012 vest 50% on the second
anniversary of the grant date and 50% on the fourth anniversary of the grant date. Time-vested
restricted stock awards granted to directors in fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011 vest 100% on the first
anniversary of the grant date.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recognized stock-based
compensation costs related to stock option and restricted stock awards of $116 and $59,
respectively. The income tax benefit recognized related to stock-based compensation was $42 and
$20 for the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, respectively.
On July 29, 2010, the Company’s stockholders approved the Graham Corporation Employee Stock
Purchase Plan (the “ESPP”), which allows eligible employees to purchase shares of the Company’s
common stock on the last day of a six-month offering period at a purchase price equal to the lesser
of 85 percent of the fair market value of the common stock on either the first day or the last day
of the offering period. A total of 200 shares of common stock may be purchased under the ESPP.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011, the Company recognized stock-based compensation costs
of $18 related to the ESPP and $6 of related tax benefits.
NOTE 8 — INCOME PER SHARE:
Basic income per share is computed by dividing net income by the weighted average number of
common shares outstanding for the period. Common shares outstanding include share equivalent
units, which are contingently issuable shares. Diluted income per share is calculated by dividing
net income by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding and, when applicable,
potential common shares outstanding during the period. A reconciliation of the numerators and
denominators of basic and diluted income per share is presented below:

NOTE 13 —COMMITMENTS AND CONTINGENCIES:
The Company has been named as a defendant in certain lawsuits alleging personal injury from
exposure to asbestos contained in products made by the Company. The Company is a co-defendant with
numerous other defendants in these lawsuits and intends to vigorously defend itself against these
claims. The claims are similar to previous asbestos suits that named the Company as defendant,
which either were dismissed when it was shown that the Company had not supplied products to the
plaintiffs’ places of work or were settled for amounts below the expected defense costs. The
outcome of these lawsuits cannot be determined at this time.

Table of Contents
From time to time in the ordinary course of business, the Company is subject to legal
proceedings and potential claims. At June 30, 2011, other than noted above, management was unaware
of any other material litigation matters.
NOTE 14 — INCOME TAXES:
The Company files federal and state income tax returns in several domestic and international
jurisdictions. In most tax jurisdictions, returns are subject to examination by the relevant tax
authorities for a number of years after the returns have been filed. The Company is currently
under examination by the U.S. Internal Revenue Service (the “IRS”) for tax years 2009 and 2010.
The IRS has completed its examination for tax years 2006 through 2008. In June 2010, the IRS
proposed an adjustment, plus interest, to disallow substantially all of the research and
development tax credit claimed by the Company in tax years 2006 through 2008. The Company filed a
protest to appeal the adjustment in July 2010. The Company believes its tax position is correct
and will continue to take appropriate actions to vigorously defend its position.
The cumulative tax benefit related to the research and development tax credit for the tax
years ended March 31, 1999 through March 31, 2011 was $2,381. The liability for unrecognized tax
benefits related to this tax position was $477 at June 30 and March 31, 2011, which represents
management’s estimate of the potential resolution of this issue. Any additional impact on the
Company’s income tax liability cannot be determined at this time. The tax benefit and liability
for unrecognized tax benefits were recorded in the Company’s Consolidated Statement of Operations

The Company is subject to examination in state and international tax jurisdictions for
tax years 2007 through 2010 and tax years 2008 through 2010, respectively. It is the Company’s
policy to recognize any interest related to uncertain tax positions in interest expense and any
penalties related to uncertain tax positions in selling, general and administrative expense. The
Company had one additional unrecognized tax benefit of $888 as of June 30 and March 31, 2011.
During the three months ended June 30, 2011 and 2010, the Company recorded $17 and $6,
respectively, for interest related to its uncertain tax positions. No penalties related to
uncertain tax positions were recorded in the three-month period ended June 30, 2011 or 2010.

Fiscal 2012 and the Near-Term Market Conditions
The
downturn in the global economy which commenced in the fiscal year
ending March 31, 2008 led to reduced demand for
petroleum-based products, which in turn led our customers to defer investment in
19
Table of Contents
major capital
projects. We have seen an improved business environment over the past few quarters and believe
that we are in the early stages of a business recovery. While there continues to be risks around a
global economic recovery, we believe current signs are more positive than a year ago.
In addition, we believe that the significant increase in construction costs, including raw
material costs, which had occurred over the four-to-five-year period prior to the recent downturn,
also led to delays in new commitments by our customers. The increase in costs resulted in the
economics of projects becoming less feasible. While some material costs have improved, copper and
steel are again elevated and remain volatile.
Near-term demand trends that we believe are affecting our customers’ investments include:
| • | As the world recovers slowly from the global recession, many emerging economies continue to have relatively strong economic growth. This expansion is driving growing energy requirements and the need for more refined petroleum products in energy markets. Although uncertainty in the capital markets continues, there has been some improved access to capital, which has resulted in certain previously stalled projects being released. | ||
| • | The expansion of the Middle Eastern economies and the continued growth in demand for oil and refined products has renewed investment activity in that region. The planned timeline of refinery projects in the major Middle Eastern countries is encouraging. | ||
| • | Asia, specifically China, began experiencing renewed demand for refined petroleum products such as gasoline. This renewed demand is driving increased investment in petrochemical and refining projects. | ||
| • | South America, specifically Brazil, Venezuela and Colombia, is seeing increased refining and petrochemical investments that are driven by their expanding economies and increased local demand for gasoline and other products that are made from oil as the feedstock. | ||
| • | The U.S. refining market has exhibited recent improvement, including near-term increases in orders of short cycle and spare parts. Historically, these types of orders have suggested a recovery, as delayed spending is released. We expect the U.S. refining market will not return to the levels experienced during the last up cycle, but will improve compared with its levels over the past few years. We expect that the U.S. refining markets will continue to be an important aspect of our business. We are beginning to see signs of planned investments to convert greater percentages of crude transportation fuels, such as revamping the distillation column to extract the residual higher value components from the low value waste stream. | ||
| • | Investments in North American oil sands projects have recently increased, especially for extraction projects in Alberta and foreign investment in Alberta, which suggest that downstream investments that involve our equipment might increase in the next one to three years. | ||
| • | Investment in new nuclear power capacity may become subject to increased uncertainty due to political and social pressures, enhanced by the tragic earthquake and tsunami which occurred in Japan in March 2011. However, the need for additional safety and back up redundancies at existing plants could increase demand for Energy Steel’s products in the near term. |
20
Table of Contents
We expect that the consequences of these near-term trends, and specifically the growth in Asia
and South America, will result in more pressure on our pricing and gross margins, as the U.S.
refining market has historically provided higher margins than certain international markets.
Because of continued global economic uncertainty and the risk associated with growth in
emerging economies, we also expect that we will have continued volatility in our order pattern. We
continue to expect our new order levels to remain volatile, resulting in both strong and weak
quarters. As the chart below indicates, quarterly orders can vary significantly.
We believe that looking at our order level in any one quarter does not provide an accurate
indication of our future expectations or performance. Rather, we believe that looking at our
orders and backlog over a rolling four-quarter time period provides a better measure of our
business. For the next several quarters, we also expect to see smaller value projects than what we
saw during the beginning of the last expansion cycle. This will require more orders for us to achieve a
similar revenue level and will adversely impact our ability to realize margin gains through volume
leverage.
Mix Shift: Stronger International Growth in Refining and Chemical Processing with Domestic Growth
in Nuclear Power and U.S. Navy Projects
We expect growth in the refining and chemical processing markets to be driven by emerging
markets. We have also expanded our addressable markets through the acquisition of Energy Steel and
our focus on U.S. Navy nuclear propulsion projects. We believe our revenue opportunities during
the coming years will be equivalent between the domestic and international markets.
Over the long-term, we expect our customers’ markets to regain their strength and, while
remaining cyclical, continue to grow. We believe the long-term trends remain strong and that the
drivers of future growth include:
21
Table of Contents
Demand Trends
| • | Global consumption of crude oil is estimated to expand significantly over the next two decades, primarily in emerging markets. This is expected to offset estimated flat to slightly declining demand in North America and Europe. | ||
| • | Global oil refining capacity is projected to increase, and is expected to be addressed through new facilities, refinery upgrades, revamps and expansions. | ||
| • | Increased demand is expected for power, specifically nuclear and alternative energy sources, refinery and petrochemical products, stimulated by an expanding middle class in Asia and the Middle East. | ||
| • | Increased development of geothermal electrical power plants in certain regions is expected to meet projected growth in demand for electrical power. | ||
| • | Increased global regulations over the refining, petrochemical and nuclear power industries are expected to continue to drive requirements for capital investments. | ||
| • | Increased focus on safety and redundancy is anticipated in existing nuclear power facilities. | ||
| • | Long-term increased project development of international nuclear facilities is expected, despite the recent tragedy in Japan. | ||
| • | Construction of new petrochemical plants in the Middle East, where natural gas is plentiful and less expensive, is expected to continue. | ||
| • | Increased investments in new power projects are expected in Asia and South America to meet projected consumer demand increases. | ||
| • | Long-term growth potential is believed to exist in alternative energy markets, such as geothermal, coal-to-liquids, gas-to-liquids and other emerging technologies, such as biodiesel, ethanol and waste-to-energy. | ||
| • | Shale gas development and the resulting availability of affordable natural gas as feedstock to U.S.-based chemical/petrochemical facilities is expected to lead to renewed investment in chemical/petrochemical markets in the U.S. |
We believe that all of the above factors offer us long-term growth opportunity to meet our
customers’ expected capital project needs. In addition, we believe we can continue to grow our
less cyclical smaller product lines and aftermarket businesses.
Emerging markets require petroleum-based products are expected to
continue to grow at rates faster than the U.S. Because of our access to the nuclear power industry
with the Energy Steel acquisition and our expanding market penetration with the U.S. Navy, we
believe the domestic and international markets will offer similar opportunities for us in the near
term. Our domestic sales as a percentage of aggregate product sales, which had increased from 50%
in our fiscal year ended March 31, 2007 to 54% in our fiscal year ended March 31, 2008 to 63% in
our fiscal year ended March 31, 2009, decreased to 45% in each of our fiscal years ended March 31,
2010 and fiscal 2011, and were also 45% in the first quarter of fiscal 2012.

The First Quarter of Fiscal 2012 Compared With the First Quarter of Fiscal 2011
Sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 were $25,012, an 87% increase as compared with
sales of $13,351 for the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The increase in the current quarter’s sales
was due to higher volume in the majority of our product lines and the benefit of the acquisition of
the Energy Steel business, which was purchased in December 2010 and contributed $3,865 in sales for
the quarter. International sales year-over-year increased $5,949, or 76%, due to increases of
$5,875 in the Middle East and $2,403 in South America, partly offset by lower Asian sales, off
$1,557. International sales accounted for 55% and 59% of total sales for the first quarter of
fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011, respectively. Domestic sales increased $5,717, or 104%, in the first
quarter of fiscal 2012 compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2011, with the Energy Steel
business contributing 68% of this increase. Fluctuations in sales among products and geographic
locations can vary measurably from quarter-to-quarter based on timing and magnitude of projects.
Sales in the three months ended June 30, 2011 were 48% to the refining industry, 12% to the
chemical and petrochemical industries, 23% to the power industry, including nuclear market and 17%
to other commercial and industrial applications. Sales in the three months ended June 30, 2010
were 25% to the refining industry, 40% to the chemical and petrochemical industries, 8% to power
industry, and 27% to other commercial and industrial applications. For additional information on
future sales and our markets, see “Orders and Backlog” below.
Our gross profit margin for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was 33% compared with 29% for the
first quarter of fiscal 2011. Gross profit dollars for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 increased
to $8,197 from $3,850, or 113% compared with fiscal 2011. Gross profit percentage and dollars
increased primarily due to higher organic volume and improving facility utilization. Gross profit
dollars were also improved by $1,181 with the addition of Energy Steel.
Selling, general and administrative (“SG&A”) expenses as a percent of sales for the
three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were 15% and 19%, respectively. Actual costs in
fiscal 2012 were $3,701, an increase of $1,134, or 44%, compared with the first quarter of fiscal
2011. Half of the increase was organic, the remaining portion due to the addition of Energy Steel.
The organic SG&A expenses increased due to increased headcount and higher variable costs related
to higher sales and income.
23
Table of Contents
Interest income for the three month-periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 was $21 and $16,
respectively. Low levels of interest income resulted from the continuing low level of interest
rates on short term U.S. government securities and money market rates.
Interest expense was $20 for the quarter ended June 30, 2011, up from $7 for the quarter ended
June 30, 2010.
Our effective tax rate in fiscal 2012 is projected to be between 33% and 35%, which represents
the tax rate used to reflect income tax expense in the current quarter (33%). The actual annual
effective tax rate for fiscal 2011 was 33%. Net income for the first three months of fiscal 2012
compared with the first three months of fiscal 2010 was $3,016 and $878, respectively. Income per
diluted share was $0.30 and $0.09 for the respective periods.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
The following discussion should be read in conjunction with our Condensed Consolidated
Statements of Cash Flows:

|
Cash and investments

(1)
|
2.6 | 2.3 | ||||||
| 1) | Working capital ratio equals current assets divided by current liabilities. |
Net cash used by operating activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 was $1,588,
compared with $2,800 used by operating activities for the first quarter of fiscal 2011. The
decrease in cash used was due to higher net income, accrued compensation and timing of income taxes
payable, offset by higher cash outflow for accounts receivable and payables. Approximately
two-thirds of the accounts receivable increase was a shift from unbilled revenue. Unbilled revenue
was unusually high on March 31, 2011, and as projects were completed and shipped in the first
quarter of fiscal 2012, the unbilled revenue moved to accounts receivable.
Dividend payments and capital expenditures in the first quarter of fiscal 2012 were $198 and
$340, respectively, compared with $198 and $525, respectively, for the first quarter of fiscal
2011.
Capital expenditures for fiscal 2012 are expected to be between $3,000 and $3,500. Over 85%
of our fiscal 2012 capital expenditures are expected to be for machinery and equipment, with the
remaining amounts to be used for information technology and other items.
Cash and investments were $41,103 on June 30, 2011 compared with $43,083 on March 31, 2011,
down 5%. With the increase in accounts receivable in the first quarter of fiscal 2012, as projects
were completed and shipped to customers, we expect cash and investment to increase over the next
quarter or two.
We invest net cash generated from operations in excess of cash held for near-term needs in
either a money market account or in U.S. government instruments, generally with maturity periods of
up to 180 days. Our money market account is used to securitize our outstanding letters of credit
and allows us to pay a lower cost on those letters of credit.
Our revolving credit facility with Bank of America, N.A. provides us with a line of credit of
$25,000, including letters of credit and bank guarantees. In addition, the agreement allows us
24
Table of Contents
to increase the line of credit, at our discretion, up to another $25,000, for total
availability of $50,000. Borrowings under our credit facility are secured by all of our assets.
Letters of credit outstanding under our credit facility on June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011 were
$16,582 and $13,751, respectively. There were no other amounts outstanding on our credit facility
at June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011. Our borrowing rate as of June 30 and March 31, 2011 was Bank
of America’s prime rate, or 3.25%. Availability under the line of credit was $8,418 at June 30,
2011. We believe that cash generated from operations, combined with our investments and available
financing capacity under our credit facility, will be adequate to meet our cash needs for the
immediate future.
Orders and Backlog
Orders for the three-month periods ended June 30, 2011 and 2010 were $19,043 and $8,124,
respectively, an increase of 134%. Orders represent written communications received from customers
requesting us to supply products and services. During the first quarter of fiscal 2012 compared
with the first quarter of fiscal 2011, orders for the organic business increased $5,741 or 71%.
Orders increased in refining, up $4,319, and power, up $1,741, offset by a small decline in
chemical and petrochemical, down $410. Energy Steel contributed $5,178 in new orders in the first
quarter of fiscal 2012.
Domestic orders were 66% of total orders, or $12,654, and international orders were 34% of
total orders, or $6,389, in the current quarter compared with the first quarter of fiscal 2011,
when domestic orders were 53%, or $4,266, of total orders, and export orders were 47%, or $3,858,
of total orders.
Backlog was $85,199 at June 30, 2011, compared with $91,096 at March 31, 2011, a 6% decrease.
Backlog is defined as the total dollar value of orders received for which revenue has not yet been
recognized. All orders in backlog represent orders from our traditional markets in established
product lines. Approximately 80% to 85% of orders currently in backlog are expected to be
converted to sales within the next twelve months. This is lower than our normal conversion, which
is approximately 85% to 90% over an upcoming 12-month period. The difference in our current
backlog includes the Northrop Grumman project for the U.S. Navy. While a significant portion of
the Navy project is expected to convert in fiscal 2012, over 50% of the project is expected to
still be in the backlog at the end of fiscal 2012. At June 30, 2011, 30% of our backlog was
attributable to equipment for refinery project work, 10% for chemical and petrochemical projects,
21% for power projects, including nuclear, and 39% for other industrial or commercial applications
(including the Northrop Grumman order). At June 30, 2010, 38% of our backlog was attributed to
equipment for refinery project work, 13% for chemical and petrochemical projects, 12% for power
projects, and 37% for other industrial or commercial applications.
At March 31, 2011, our backlog included one order with a value of $1,130 that was placed on
hold (suspended) pending further customer evaluation. During the three months ended June 30, 2011,
the order was released for production and is expected to ship in the next 12 months. No orders in
the current backlog are on hold.
Outlook
We believe that we are in the early stages of a recovery in the refinery and petrochemical
markets. We also believe the improved strength of the alternative energy markets and the U.S.
nuclear industry will continue into fiscal 2012. We experienced significant organic order growth
in the second half of fiscal 2011, supplemented by our acquisition of Energy Steel. We believe
that with our current backlog of $85,199, the improved trend in order levels and our strong
25
Table of Contents
pipeline,
that our revenue will increase 30%
to 40% over last fiscal year, to between $95 and $105 million, in fiscal 2012. Approximately, 16% to 20% of
our revenue is expected to come from Energy Steel. In fiscal 2011, Energy Steel contributed 8% of
our revenue, as we completed our acquisition late in the third quarter of fiscal 2011. We expect
fiscal 2012 order levels to continue to be variable across the year, though we are optimistic that
orders will be similar to the second half of fiscal 2011 and the first quarter of fiscal 2012
during which period they ranged from approximately $17 to $27 million and averaged $21
million. We continue to expect a strong international market, with pockets of strength in the
U.S., especially in alternative energy and nuclear.
Normally, we convert 85% to 90% of our existing backlog to sales within a 12-month period.
However, the Northrop Grumman project for the U.S. Navy currently in our backlog is expected to
convert to revenue over the next three fiscal years, with the majority of the revenue expected to
occur in fiscal 2012 and in the fiscal year ending March 31, 2013. Therefore, our June 30, 2011 backlog is expected to extend
beyond our historical level, and we expect to convert approximately 80% to 85% of it to sales over
the next twelve months.
Our expected sales for fiscal 2012 assume the expected conversion of backlog as well as
continued market improvement and investment by our customers. The upper end of the range
may be achieved by acceleration of projects by refining and petrochemical and alternative
energy end users, our historical customer base. In addition, increased focus on safety and
redundancy projects at U.S. nuclear facilities may drive near term opportunities at Energy Steel.
We do, however, anticipate more revenue concentration in fiscal 2012 than in prior years. Two
orders, the U.S. Navy project and a Middle East refinery project, are expected to account for
approximately 25% of fiscal 2012 revenue.
We expect gross profit margin in fiscal 2012 to be in the 29% to 32% range. The full year
expected margin level represents an increase from fiscal 2011, which included some lower margin
projects won during the depths of the downturn in our markets. While we still have a few lower
margin projects in our backlog, the overall margin within our backlog has improved compared with
the start of fiscal 2011. We expect that the current shift of business in the refining and
petrochemical market toward international markets, where margins are generally lower than domestic
project margins, will have the effect of reducing our margins.
Historically, at the start of a recovery we have experienced margins that are somewhat less
compared with later in the recovery. Due to changes in geographical markets and end use markets,
we expect gross margins are unlikely to reach the 40% range achieved in the prior up cycle. We
believe long-term up cycle gross profit margin in the mid-to-upper 30’s is a more realistic
expectation. We also expect this recovery will continue to be more focused on emerging markets,
which historically have lower margins and more competitive pricing than developed markets.
Factors that may positively impact our margin projections include: (i) increased volume that increases utilization of capacity;
(ii) continued improvements in our manufacturing productivity; and/or (iii) expanded margin
opportunities at Energy Steel.
SG&A spending is expected to increase during fiscal 2012 to between $16,000 and $17,000. This
includes the full year impact of Energy Steel (compared with 3
1
/
2
months in fiscal 2011). In
addition to Energy Steel, we continue to invest in personnel as we prepare for
increased opportunities in fiscal 2012 and beyond. Our effective tax rate during fiscal 2012
is expected to be between 33% and 35%.
26
Table of Contents
Cash flow in fiscal 2012 is expected to be positive, driven by improved net income and the
minimal need for additional working capital despite the significant increase in revenue. We also
expect to see reductions in unbilled revenue, partly offset by the drawdown of customer deposits
which have been atypically high since the fourth quarter of fiscal 2010.
Contingencies
and Commitments
We have been named as a defendant in certain lawsuits alleging personal injury from exposure
to asbestos contained in our products. We are a co-defendant with numerous other defendants in
these lawsuits and intend to vigorously defend against these claims. The claims are similar to
previous asbestos lawsuits that named us as a defendant. Such previous lawsuits either were
dismissed when it was shown that we had not supplied products to the plaintiffs’ places of work or
were settled by us for amounts below expected defense costs. Neither the outcome of these lawsuits
nor the potential for liability can be determined at this time.
From time to time in the ordinary course of business, we are subject to legal proceedings and
potential claims. As of June 30, 2011, other than noted above, we were unaware of any other
material litigation matters.
Critical Accounting Policies, Estimates, and Judgments
Our unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements are based on the selection of
accounting policies and the application of significant accounting estimates, some of which require
management to make significant assumptions. We believe that the most critical accounting estimates
used in the preparation of our condensed consolidated financial statements relate to labor hour
estimates used to recognize revenue under the percentage-of-completion method, accounting for
business combinations, goodwill and intangible asset impairment, accounting for income taxes,
accounting for contingencies, under which we accrue a loss when it is probable that a liability has
been incurred and the amount can be reasonably estimated, and accounting for pensions and other
postretirement benefits. For further information, refer to Item 7 “Management’s Discussion and
Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations” and Item 8 “Financial Statements and
Supplementary Data” included in our Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended March 31, 2011.
Off Balance Sheet Arrangements
We did not have any off balance sheet arrangements as of June 30, 2011 or March 31, 2011,
other than operating leases and letters of credit.
The principal market risks (i.e., the risk of loss arising from changes in the market) to
which we are exposed are foreign currency exchange rates, price risk and project cancellation risk.
The assumptions applied in preparing the following qualitative and quantitative disclosures
regarding foreign currency exchange rate, price risk and project cancellation risk are based upon
volatility ranges experienced by us in relevant historical periods, our current
knowledge of the marketplace, and our judgment of the probability of future volatility based
upon the historical trends and economic conditions of the markets in which we operate.
27
Table of Contents
Foreign Currency
International consolidated sales for the first quarter of fiscal 2012 were 55% of total sales
compared with 59% for the same period of fiscal 2011. Operating in markets throughout the world
exposes us to movements in currency exchange rates. Currency movements can affect sales in several
ways, the foremost being our ability to compete for orders against foreign competitors that base
their prices on relatively weaker currencies. Business lost due to competition for orders against
competitors using a relatively weaker currency cannot be quantified. In addition, cash can be
adversely impacted by the conversion of sales made by us in a foreign currency to U.S. dollars. In
the first quarter of each of fiscal 2012 and fiscal 2011, all sales by us and our wholly-owned
subsidiaries, for which we were paid, were denominated in the local currency (U.S. dollars or
Chinese RMB). At certain times, we may enter into forward foreign currency exchange agreements to
hedge our exposure against potential unfavorable changes in foreign currency values on significant
sales contracts negotiated in foreign currencies.
We have limited exposure to foreign currency purchases. In the first quarter of fiscal 2012
and 2011, our purchases in foreign currencies represented 1% and 2%, respectively, of the cost of
products sold. At certain times, we may utilize forward foreign currency exchange contracts to
limit currency exposure. Forward foreign currency exchange contracts were not used in the periods
being reported on in this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q and as of June 30, 2011 and March 31, 2011,
we held no forward foreign currency contracts.
Price Risk
Operating in a global marketplace requires us to compete with other global manufacturers
which, in some instances, benefit from lower production costs and more favorable economic
conditions. Although we believe that our customers differentiate our products on the basis of our
manufacturing quality and engineering experience and excellence, among other things, such lower
production costs and more favorable economic conditions mean that certain of our competitors are
able to offer products similar to ours at lower prices. Moreover, the cost of metals and other
materials used in our products have experienced significant volatility. Such factors, in addition
to the global effects of the recent volatility and disruption of the capital and credit markets,
have resulted in downward demand and pricing pressure on our products.
Project Cancellation and Project Continuation Risk
Economic conditions over the past few years have led to a higher likelihood of project
cancellation by our customers. Our last project on hold, in the amount of $1,130, was released in
April 2011. Currently, we have no projects on hold. We attempt to mitigate the risk of
cancellation by structuring contracts with our customers to maximize the likelihood that progress
payments made to us for individual projects cover the costs we have incurred. As a result, we do
not believe we have a significant cash exposure to projects which may be cancelled.
Open orders are reviewed continuously through communications with customers. If it becomes
evident to us that a project is delayed well beyond its original shipment date, management will
move the project into “placed on hold” (i.e., suspended) category. Furthermore, if a project is
cancelled by our customer, it is removed from our backlog.
