WOODWARD, INC.
NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS
(In thousands, except per share amounts)
(Unaudited)
Note 1. Basis of presentation
The Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements of Woodward, Inc. (“Woodward” or the “Company”) as of June 30, 2022 and for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, included herein, have not been audited by an independent registered public accounting firm. These unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements reflect all normal recurring adjustments that, in the opinion of management, are necessary to present fairly Woodward’s financial position as of June 30, 2022, and the statements of earnings, comprehensive earnings, cash flows, and changes in stockholders’ equity for the periods presented herein. The results of operations for the three and nine-months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 are not necessarily indicative of the operating results to be expected for other interim periods or for the full fiscal year. Dollar and share amounts contained in these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements are in thousands, except per share amounts, unless otherwise noted.
The unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein have been prepared pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC”) for interim reporting. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America (“U.S. GAAP”) have been condensed or omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. Accordingly, these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements should be read in conjunction with the audited Consolidated Financial Statements and Notes thereto included in Woodward’s most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K filed with the SEC and other financial information filed with the SEC.
Management is required to use estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements, the reported revenues and expenses recognized during the reporting period, and certain financial statement disclosures, in the preparation of the unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included herein. Significant estimates in these unaudited Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements include allowances for credit losses; net realizable value of inventories; variable consideration including customer rebates earned and payable and early payment discounts; warranty reserves; useful lives of property and identifiable intangible assets; the evaluation of impairments of property, intangible assets, and goodwill; the provision for income tax and related valuation reserves; the valuation of derivative instruments; assumptions used in the determination of the funded status and annual expense of pension and postretirement employee benefit plans; the valuation of stock compensation instruments granted to employees, board members and any other eligible recipients; estimates of incremental borrowing rates used when estimating the present value of future lease payments; assumptions used when including renewal options or non-exercise of termination options in lease terms; estimates of total lifetime sales used in the recognition of revenue of deferred material rights and balance sheet classification of the related contract liability; estimates of total sales contract costs when recognizing revenue under the cost-to-cost method; and contingencies. Actual results could vary from Woodward’s estimates.
Global Business Conditions
We continue to monitor a variety of external issues impacting our business, including the ongoing global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, rising inflation, and global supply chain and labor disruptions.
Although we continue to see recovery across most of our end markets, our financial performance during the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 was adversely affected by these issues. We are unable to predict the full extent to which these impacts will continue to adversely affect our business, including our operational performance, results of operations, cash flows, financial position, and the achievement of our strategic objectives.
We continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions regarding our business operations if we determine such actions are in the best interests of our shareholders, employees, customers, communities, business partners, and suppliers, or as required by federal, state or local authorities. It is not currently clear what the potential effects of any such alterations or modifications may have on our business in future periods, including the effects on our customers, employees and prospects, or on our financial results.
Note 2. New accounting standards
From time to time, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) or other standards setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”).
7
In the time since the Company filed its most recent Annual Report on Form 10-K for the fiscal year ended September 30, 2021, no new accounting standards have been issued, or are pending issuance, that are expected to have a material impact on the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.

Disaggregation of Revenue
Woodward designs, produces and services reliable, efficient, low-emission, and high-performance energy control products for diverse applications in markets throughout the world. Woodward reports financial results for each of its Aerospace and Industrial reportable segments. Woodward further disaggregates its revenue from contracts with customers by primary market as Woodward believes this best depicts how the nature, amount, timing and uncertainty of its revenue and cash flows are affected by economic factors.
Revenue by primary market for the Aerospace reportable segment was as follows:

Note 4. Earnings per share
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings available to common stockholders by the weighted-average number of shares of common stock outstanding for the period.
Diluted earnings per share reflects the weighted-average number of shares outstanding after consideration of the dilutive effect of stock options and restricted stock.
The following is a reconciliation of net earnings to basic earnings per share and diluted earnings per share:

Lessor arrangements
Woodward has assessed its manufacturing contracts and concluded that certain of the contracts for the manufacture of customer products met the criteria to be considered a leasing arrangement (“embedded leases”) with Woodward as the lessor. The specific manufacturing contracts that met the criteria were those that utilized Woodward property, plant and equipment and which are substantially (more than 90%) dedicated to the manufacturing of the product(s) for a single customer. Woodward has dedicated manufacturing lines with four of its customers representing embedded leases, all of which qualified as operating leases with undefined quantities of future customer purchase commitments. Although Woodward expects to allocate some portion of future net sales to these customers to embedded lessor arrangements, it cannot provide expected future undiscounted lease payments from property, plant and equipment leased to customers as of June 30, 2022. If, in the future, customers reduce purchases of related products from Woodward, the Company believes it will derive additional value from the underlying equipment by repurposing its use to support other customer arrangements.
Revenue from contracts with customers that included embedded operating leases, which is included in “Net sales” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings, was $

Investments in term deposits with foreign banks: Woodward’s foreign subsidiaries sometimes invest excess cash in various highly liquid financial instruments that Woodward believes are with creditworthy financial institutions. Such investments are reported in “Cash and cash equivalents” at fair value, with realized gains from interest income recognized in earnings. The carrying value of Woodward’s investments in term deposits with foreign banks are considered equal to the fair value given the highly liquid nature of the investments.
Equity securities: Woodward holds marketable equity securities, through investments in various mutual funds, related to its deferred compensation program. Based on Woodward’s intentions regarding these instruments, marketable equity securities are classified as trading securities. The trading securities are reported at fair value, with realized gains and losses recognized in “Other (income) expense, net” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The trading securities are included in “Other assets” in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets. The fair values of Woodward’s trading securities are based on the quoted market prices for the net asset value of the various mutual funds.
Cross-currency interest rate swaps: Woodward holds cross-currency interest rate swaps, which are accounted for at fair value. In the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, the swaps in an asset position are included in “Other assets,” and swaps in a liability position are included in “Other liabilities”. The fair values of Woodward’s cross-currency interest rate swaps are determined using a market approach that is based on observable inputs other than quoted market prices, including contract terms, interest rates, currency rates, and other market factors.
Cash, trade accounts receivable, accounts payable, and short-term borrowings are not remeasured to fair value, as the carrying cost of each approximates its respective fair value.

In connection with certain economic incentives related to Woodward’s development of a second campus in the greater-Rockford, Illinois area for its Aerospace segment and Woodward’s development of a new campus at its corporate headquarters in Fort Collins, Colorado, Woodward received long-term notes from municipalities within the states of Illinois and Colorado. The fair value of the long-term notes was estimated based on a model that discounted future principal and interest payments received at an interest rate available to Woodward at the end of the period for similarly rated municipal notes of similar maturity, which is a level 2 input as defined by the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy. The interest rates used to estimate the fair value of the long-term notes were
In connection with the sale of the renewable power systems business and other related businesses, Woodward received a promissory note from the buyer for deferral of a portion of the purchase price. The full amount of the promissory note was received during the three-months ended June 30, 2022.
From time to time, certain of Woodward’s foreign subsidiaries will invest excess cash in short-term time deposits with a fixed maturity date of longer than three months but less than one year from the date of the deposit. Woodward believes that the investments are with creditworthy financial institutions. The fair value of the investments in short-term time deposits was estimated based on a model that discounted future principal and interest payments to be received at an interest rate available to the foreign subsidiary entering into the investment for similar short-term time deposits of similar maturity. This was determined to be a level 2 input as defined by the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy. The interest rates used to estimate the fair value of the short-term time deposits was
The fair value of long-term debt was estimated based on the prices of debt of comparable type and maturity available to Woodward at the end of the period, which is a level 2 input as defined by the U.S. GAAP fair value hierarchy. The weighted-average interest rate used to estimate the fair value of long-term debt was
Woodward does not have expected credit losses related to any financial assets that are not required to be remeasured at fair value.
Note 8. Derivative instruments and hedging activities
Derivative instruments not designated or qualifying as hedging instruments
In May 2020, Woodward entered into a floating-rate cross-currency interest rate swap (the “2020 Floating-Rate Cross-Currency Swap”), with a notional value of $
The net interest income of the cross-currency interest rate swaps is recorded as a reduction to “Interest expense” in Woodward’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. As of June 30, 2022, the total notional value of the 2020 Floating-Rate Cross-Currency Swap and the 2020 Fixed-Rate Cross-Currency Swaps was $

Derivatives instruments in fair value hedging relationships
In May 2020, Woodward entered into a US dollar denominated intercompany loan payable with identical terms and notional value as the 2020 Floating-Rate Cross-Currency Swap, together with a reciprocal intercompany floating-rate cross-currency interest rate swap. The agreements were entered into by Woodward Barbados Euro Financing SRL (“Euro Barbados”), a wholly owned subsidiary of Woodward. The US dollar denominated intercompany loan and reciprocal intercompany floating-rate cross-currency interest rate swap are designated as a fair value hedge under the criteria prescribed in ASC 815. The objective of the derivative instrument is to hedge against the foreign currency exchange risk attributable to the spot remeasurement of the US dollar denominated intercompany loan, as Euro Barbados maintains a Euro functional currency.
For each floating-rate intercompany cross-currency interest rate swap, only the change in the fair value related to the cross-currency basis spread, or excluded component, of the derivative instrument is recognized in accumulated other comprehensive income (“OCI”). The remaining change in the fair value of the derivative instrument is recognized in foreign currency transaction gain or loss included in “Selling, general and administrative costs” in Woodward’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. The change in the fair value of the derivative instrument in foreign currency transaction gain or loss offsets the change in the spot remeasurement of the intercompany Euro and US dollar denominated loans. Hedge effectiveness is assessed based on the fair value changes of the derivative instrument, after excluding any fair value changes related to the cross-currency basis spread. The initial cost of the cross-currency basis spread is recorded in earnings each period through the swap accrual process. There are no credit-risk-related contingent features associated with the intercompany floating-rate cross-currency interest rate swap.
Derivative instruments in cash flow hedging relationships
In May 2020, Woodward entered into
For each of the fixed-rate intercompany cross-currency interest rate swaps, changes in the fair values of the derivative instruments are recognized in accumulated OCI and reclassified to foreign currency transaction gain or loss included in “Selling, general and administrative costs” in Woodward’s Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Reclassifications out of accumulated OCI of the change in fair value occur each reporting period based upon changes in the spot rate remeasurement of the Euro and US dollar denominated intercompany loans, including associated interest. Hedge effectiveness is assessed based on the fair value changes of the derivative instruments and such hedges are deemed to be highly effective in offsetting exposure to variability in foreign exchange rates. There are no credit-risk-related contingent features associated with these fixed-rate cross-currency interest rate swaps.

Woodward tests goodwill for impairment during the fourth quarter of each fiscal year, and at any time there is an indication that goodwill is more-likely-than-not impaired, such indications commonly referred to as triggering events. Woodward’s goodwill impairment test in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2021 resulted in no impairment.

Note 18. Income taxes
The determination of the estimated annual effective tax rate is based upon a number of significant estimates and judgments. In addition, as a global commercial enterprise, Woodward’s tax expense can be impacted by changes in tax rates or laws, the finalization of tax audits and reviews, changes in the estimate of the amount of undistributed foreign earnings that Woodward considers indefinitely reinvested, issuance of future guidance, interpretation, and rule-making, and other factors that cannot be predicted with certainty. As such, there can be significant volatility in interim tax provisions.
The following table sets forth the tax expense and the effective tax rate for Woodward’s earnings before income taxes:

The increase in the effective tax rate for the three-months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the three-months ended June 30, 2021 is primarily attributable to decreased stock-based compensation tax benefit and prior period tax items related to Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) that did not repeat in the current quarter. These unfavorable impacts to the effective tax rate were partially offset by the prior quarter discrete impact of the enactment of a retroactive law disallowing foreign interest expense.
The increase in the effective tax rate for the nine-months ended June 30, 2022 compared to the nine-months ended June 30, 2021 is primarily attributable to decreased stock-based compensation tax benefit as a percent of year-to-date pre-tax earnings, prior period tax items related to GILTI that did not repeat in the current fiscal year, and increased state income taxes relative to full-year projected earnings. These unfavorable impacts to the effective tax rate were partially offset by a reduction in the U.S. tax on international activities.

Woodward’s tax returns are subject to audits by U.S. federal, state, and foreign tax authorities, and these audits are at various stages of completion at any given time. Reviews of tax matters by authorities and lapses of the applicable statutes of limitation may result in changes to tax expense. Woodward’s fiscal years remaining open to examination for U.S. Federal income taxes include fiscal years

Note 19. Retirement benefits
Woodward provides various retirement benefits to eligible members of the Company, including contributions to various defined contribution plans, pension benefits associated with defined benefit plans, postretirement medical benefits and postretirement life insurance benefits. Eligibility requirements and benefit levels vary depending on employee location.
Defined contribution plans
Most of the Company’s U.S. employees are eligible to participate in the U.S. defined contribution plan. The U.S. defined contribution plan allows employees to defer part of their annual income for income tax purposes into their personal 401(k) accounts. The Company makes matching contributions to eligible employee accounts, which are also deferred for employee personal income tax purposes. Certain non-U.S. employees are also eligible to participate in similar non-U.S. plans.
Woodward’s U.S. employees receive an annual contribution of Woodward stock, equal to
The amount of expense associated with defined contribution plans was as follows:

Defined benefit plans
Woodward has defined benefit plans that provide pension benefits for certain retired employees in the United States, the United Kingdom, Japan, and Germany. Woodward also provides other postretirement benefits to its employees including postretirement medical benefits and life insurance benefits. Postretirement medical benefits are provided to certain current and retired employees and their covered dependents and beneficiaries in the United States. Life insurance benefits are provided to certain retirees in the United States under frozen plans, which are no longer available to current employees. A September 30 measurement date is utilized to value plan assets and obligations for all of Woodward’s defined benefit pension and other postretirement benefit plans.
U.S. GAAP requires that, for obligations outstanding as of September 30, 2021, the funded status reported in interim periods shall be the same asset or liability recognized in the previous year end statement of financial position adjusted for (a) subsequent accruals of net periodic benefit cost that exclude the amortization of amounts previously recognized in other comprehensive income (for example, subsequent accruals of service cost, interest cost, and return on plan assets) and (b) contributions to a funded plan or benefit payments.

The components of net periodic other postretirement benefit costs other than the service cost and interest cost components are included in the line item “Other (income) expense, net”, and the interest cost component is included in the line item “Interest expense” in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
The amount of cash contributions made to these plans in any year is dependent upon a number of factors, including minimum funding requirements in the jurisdictions in which Woodward operates and arrangements made with trustees of certain foreign plans. As a result, the actual funding in fiscal year 2022 may differ from the current estimate.

Stock repurchase program
In November 2019, the Woodward board of directors (the “Board”) had authorized a program for the repurchase of up to $
In January 2022, the Board terminated the 2019 Authorization and concurrently authorized a new program for the repurchase of up to $
Stock-based compensation
Provisions governing outstanding stock option awards are included in the 2017 Omnibus Incentive Plan, as amended from time to time (the “2017 Plan”) and the 2006 Omnibus Incentive Plan (the “2006 Plan”), as applicable.
The 2017 Plan was first approved by Woodward’s stockholders in January 2017 and is the successor plan to the 2006 Plan. As of September 14, 2016, the effective date of the 2017 Plan, the Board delegated authority to administer the 2017 Plan to the Compensation Committee of the Board, including, but not limited to, the power to determine the recipients of awards and the terms of those awards. On January 27, 2021 and January 26, 2022, Woodward’s stockholders approved an additional
Stock options
Woodward believes that stock options align the interests of its employees and directors with the interests of its stockholders. Stock option awards are granted with an exercise price equal to the market price of Woodward’s stock at the date the grants are awarded, a term, and generally have a vesting schedule at a rate of
The fair value of options granted is estimated as of the grant date using the Black-Scholes-Merton option-valuation model using the assumptions in the following table. Woodward calculates the expected term, which represents the average period of time that stock options granted are expected to be outstanding, based upon historical experience of plan participants. Expected volatility is based on historical volatility using daily stock price observations. The estimated dividend yield is based upon Woodward’s historical dividend practice and the market value of its common stock. The risk-free rate is based on the U.S. treasury yield curve, for periods within the contractual life of the stock option, at the time of grant.
The following is a summary of the activity for stock option awards:

Restricted Stock
During the three-months ended June 30, 2022, Woodward granted
Stock-based compensation expense
Woodward recognizes stock-based compensation expense on a straight-line basis over the requisite service period. Pursuant to form stock option agreements used by the Company, with terms approved by the administrator of the applicable plan, the requisite service period can be less than the four-year vesting period based on grantee’s retirement eligibility. As such, the recognition of stock-based compensation expense associated with some stock option grants can be accelerated to a period of less than four years, including immediate recognition of stock-based compensation expense on the date of grant.
At June 30, 2022, there was approximately $
Note 21. Commitments and contingencies
Woodward is currently involved in claims, pending or threatened litigation or other legal proceedings, investigations and/or regulatory proceedings arising in the normal course of business, including, among others, those relating to product liability claims, employment matters, worker’s compensation claims, contractual disputes, product warranty claims and alleged violations of various laws and regulations. Woodward accrues for known individual matters using estimates of the most likely amount of loss where it believes that it is probable the matter will result in a loss when ultimately resolved and such loss is reasonably estimable. Legal costs are expensed as incurred and are classified in “Selling, general and administrative expenses” on the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
25
Woodward is partially self-insured in the United States for healthcare and worker’s compensation up to predetermined amounts, above which third party insurance applies. Management regularly reviews the probable outcome of related claims and proceedings, the expenses expected to be incurred, the availability and limits of the insurance coverage, and the established accruals for liabilities.
While the outcome of pending claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and investigations cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that any liabilities that may result from these claims, proceedings and investigations will not have a material effect on Woodward’s liquidity, financial condition, or results of operations.
In the event of a change in control of Woodward, as defined in change-in-control agreements with its corporate officers, Woodward may be required to pay termination benefits to such officers.
Note 22. Segment information
Woodward serves the aerospace and industrial markets through its
The accounting policies of the reportable segments are the same as those of the Company. Woodward evaluates segment profit or loss based on internal performance measures for each segment in a given period. In connection with that assessment, Woodward generally excludes matters such as certain charges for restructuring, interest income and expense, certain gains and losses from asset dispositions, or other non-recurring and/or non-operationally related expenses.

OVERVIEW
Global Business Conditions
We continue to monitor a variety of external issues impacting our business, including the ongoing global impact of the COVID-19 pandemic, rising inflation, and global supply chain and labor disruptions.
Although we continue to see recovery across most of our end markets, our financial performance during the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 was adversely affected by these issues. We continue to assess the environment and are taking appropriate price actions in response to rising costs; however, timing can be delayed due to certain pre-existing contractual arrangements. We are unable to predict the full extent to which these impacts will continue to adversely affect our business, including our operational performance, results of operations, cash flows, financial position, and the achievement of our strategic objectives. Such uncertainty may affect our ability to accurately predict our future performance and financial results.
We continue to actively monitor the situation and may take further actions to alter our business operations if we determine such actions are in the best interests of our shareholders, employees, customers, communities, business partners, and suppliers, or as required by federal, state, or local authorities. It is not currently clear what the potential effects of any such alterations or modifications may have on our business in future periods, including the effects on our customers, employees and prospects, or on our financial results.
The Russia-Ukraine Conflict
In February 2022, in response to the military conflict between Russia and Ukraine, the United States, other North Atlantic Treaty Organization (“NATO”) members, and certain non-member countries announced targeted economic sanctions on Russia and Russian enterprises. The continuation of the conflict may trigger additional economic and other sanctions enacted by the United States, other NATO member states, and other countries. Our sales to Russia during each of the first nine-months of fiscal years 2022 and 2021 were less than 1% of our total sales. While the impact of any additional bans, sanction programs, and boycotts is uncertain at the current time due to the fluid nature of the military conflict as it continues to unfold, the potential impacts of the conflict have included and could continue to include supply chain and logistics disruptions, volatility in foreign exchange rates and interest rates, inflationary pressures on raw materials and energy, heightened cybersecurity threats, and other impacts.

Adjusted net earnings, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted effective tax rate, EBIT, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures.

Liquidity Highlights
Net cash provided by operating activities for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 was $86,016, compared to $317,915 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 compared to the first nine-months of the prior fiscal year is primarily attributable to production delays from supply chain disruptions as well as increases in working capital (excluding cash) to support the growth we anticipate in the fourth quarter of this fiscal year and the next full fiscal year.
For the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, free cash flow, which we define as net cash flow from operating activities less payments for property, plant and equipment, was $48,911, compared to $296,568 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. Adjusted free cash flow, which we define as free cash flow, plus the payments for costs related to business development activities and restructuring charges, was $52,398. No adjustments were made to free cash flow for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. The decrease in free cash flow for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year was primarily due to increases in working capital (excluding cash) to support the growth we anticipate in the fourth quarter of this fiscal year and the next full fiscal year, as well as production delays from supply chain disruptions, and higher payments for property, plant and equipment. Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow are non-U.S. GAAP financial measures. A description of these measures as well as a reconciliation of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures to the most directly comparable U.S. GAAP financial measures can be found under the caption “Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures” in this Item 2 – Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations.
At June 30, 2022, we held $99,701 in cash and cash equivalents and had total outstanding debt of $766,402. We have additional borrowing availability of $940,684, net of outstanding letters of credit, under our revolving credit agreement. At June 30, 2022, we also had additional borrowing capacity of $27,387 under various foreign lines of credit and foreign overdraft facilities.

The increase in consolidated net sales for both the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 and the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, in each case as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year, is primarily due to an increase in Aerospace sales volume, as well as the impact of price increases and a favorable product mix.
In the Aerospace segment, the increases in net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 and first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year is primarily attributable to a significant increase in commercial OEM and aftermarket sales driven by higher OEM production rates and increasing aircraft utilization, partially offset by lower defense aftermarket sales primarily driven by global supply chain and labor disruptions. As of the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, Aerospace segment net sales were negatively impacted by approximately $55,000 due to ongoing global supply chain and labor disruptions.
In the Industrial segment, the decreases in net sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 and first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year were primarily attributable to a weakness in
30
natural gas engines in China and by unfavorable foreign currency impacts, partially offset by higher marine sales driven by increased utilization of the in-service fleet as well as increased industrial turbomachinery sales supporting increasing demand for power generation and process industries. As of the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, Industrial segment net sales were negatively impacted by approximately $45,000 due to ongoing global supply chain and labor disruptions.
Costs and Expenses
Cost of goods sold increased by $57,946 to $480,403, or 78.2% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, from $422,457, or 75.9% of net sales, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. Cost of goods sold increased by $94,639 to $1,352,979, or 77.6% of net sales, for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, from $1,258,340, or 75.1% of net sales, for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. The increase in cost of goods sold as a percentage of net sales in the third quarter and first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year was primarily due to net inflationary impacts on material and labor costs, increased Aerospace commercial OEM sales volume, which traditionally have lower margins than other Aerospace segment sales, as well as increases in manufacturing costs related to supply chain disruptions and inefficiencies related to training new members.
Gross margin (as measured by net sales less cost of goods sold, divided by net sales) was 21.8% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 and 22.4% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, compared to 24.1% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021 and 24.9% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. The decrease in gross margin for the third quarter and first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year is primarily attributable to net inflationary impacts on material and labor costs, increased Aerospace commercial OEM sales volume, which traditionally have lower margins than other Aerospace segment sales, as well as increases in manufacturing costs related to supply chain disruptions and inefficiencies related to training new members.
Selling, general and administrative expenses decreased by $1,531, or 3.2%, to $46,490 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to $48,021 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 7.6% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to 8.6% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses increased by $4,459, or 3.0%, to $152,920 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, compared to $148,461 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. Selling, general, and administrative expenses as a percentage of net sales decreased to 8.8% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, compared to 8.9% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. The increase in selling, general and administrative expenses, for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year is primarily due to the incurrence of a certain expense in the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 in connection with a non-recurring matter unrelated to the ongoing operations of the business, as well as certain business development activities, which in each case did not occur in the prior fiscal year period.
Research and development costs increased by $2,459, or 8.3%, to $32,224 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, as compared to $29,765 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. As a percentage of net sales, research and development costs decreased to 5.2% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, as compared to 5.3% for the same period of the prior fiscal year. The increase in research and development costs, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year is primarily due to variability in the timing of projects and expenses.
Research and development costs increased by $612, or 0.7%, to $90,000 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, as compared to $89,388 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. Research and development costs decreased as a percentage of net sales to 5.2% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, as compared to 5.3% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. The increase in research and development costs for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year is primarily due to variability in the timing of projects and expenses. Our research and development activities extend across almost all of our customer base, and we anticipate ongoing variability in research and development due to the timing of customer business needs on current and future programs.
31
Interest expense increased by $136, or 1.6%, to $8,533 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to $8,397 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. Interest expense as a percentage of net sales was 1.4% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to 1.5% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. Interest expense decreased by $516, or 2.0%, to $25,036 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, compared to $25,552 for first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. Interest expense as a percentage of net sales was 1.4% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, compared to 1.5% for the first-nine months of fiscal year 2021. The increase in interest expense for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year is primarily attributable to increased borrowings on the revolving credit facility that occurred during the quarter. The decrease in interest expense for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same period of the prior fiscal year is primarily attributable to reduced long-term debt balances. In the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021, we paid the entire balance of two series of private placement notes totaling $100,000, primarily using cash from operations and proceeds from our revolving credit facility.
Other income decreased by $7,103 to $3,252 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to $10,355 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. Other income decreased by $10,996 to $18,813 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, compared to $29,809 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. The decrease in other income for the third quarter and first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year is primarily attributable to a loss on investments in our deferred compensation program, whereas a gain on investments was recognized in the prior fiscal year.
Income taxes were provided at an effective rate on earnings before income taxes of 21.6% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 and 17.2% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, as compared to 16.8% for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021 and 14.1% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021.
The increase in the effective tax rate for the three-months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the three-months ended June 30, 2021 is primarily attributable to decreased stock-based compensation tax benefit and an adjustment to prior period tax items related to Global Intangible Low-Taxed Income (“GILTI”) that did not repeat in the current quarter. These unfavorable impacts to the effective tax rate were partially offset by the prior quarter discrete impact of the enactment of a retroactive law disallowing foreign interest expense.
The increase in the effective tax rate for the nine-months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to the nine-months ended June 30, 2021 is primarily attributable to decreased stock-based compensation tax benefit as a percent of year-to-date pre-tax earnings, an adjustment to prior period tax items related to GILTI that did not repeat in the current fiscal year, and increased state income taxes relative to full-year projected earnings. These unfavorable impacts to the effective tax rate were partially offset by a reduction in the U.S. tax on international activities.

Industrial
Industrial segment net sales decreased by $3,143, or 1.5%, to $212,620 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to $215,763 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. Industrial segment net sales decreased by $16,477, or 2.5%, to $631,853 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, compared to $648,330 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. Foreign currency exchange rates had an unfavorable impact on segment net sales of $16,422 and $28,824 for the third quarter and first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, respectively, as compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year.
The decrease in Industrial segment net sales in the third quarter and first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 was primarily due to lower sales of natural gas-powered engines in China and unfavorable foreign currency exchange rates, partially offset by increased marine sales driven by higher utilization of the in-service fleet as well as greater industrial turbomachinery sales supporting increasing demand for power generation and process industries.
As of the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, Industrial segment net sales were negatively impacted by approximately $45,000 due to global supply chain and labor disruptions.
Industrial segment earnings decreased by $6,064, or 22.3%, to $21,102 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to $27,166 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. Segment earnings decreased by $25,896, or 29.5%, to $62,029 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, compared to $87,925 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021.
The decrease in Industrial segment earnings for the third quarter and first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 compared to the same periods of the prior fiscal year was due to the following:

The decrease in Industrial segment earnings in the third quarter was primarily due to net inflationary impacts on material and labor costs, as well as increases in manufacturing costs related to supply chain disruptions and inefficiencies related to training new members, partially offset by higher sales volume. The decrease in Industrial segment earnings for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the same period of the prior year was primarily due to unfavorable product mix, unfavorable foreign currency impacts, net inflationary impacts, as well as increases in manufacturing costs related to supply chain disruptions and inefficiencies related to hiring and training. Industrial segment earnings as a percentage of segment net sales were 9.9% for the third quarter and 9.8% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, compared to 12.6% for the third quarter and 13.6% for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021.
Nonsegment
Nonsegment expenses increased by $5,655 to $19,201 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2022, compared to $13,546 for the third quarter of fiscal year 2021. The increase in nonsegment expenses for the third quarter was primarily a result of the timing of certain expenses and the return of annual variable incentive compensation costs. Nonsegment expenses increased by $16,485 to $63,816 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, compared to $47,331 for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. The increase in nonsegment expenses in the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 compared to the same period in the prior year was primarily a result of the timing of certain expenses, the return of annual variable incentive compensation costs, as well as a non-recurring matter unrelated to the ongoing operations of the business and certain business development activities, neither of which occurred in the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021.
LIQUIDITY AND CAPITAL RESOURCES
Historically, we have satisfied our working capital needs, as well as capital expenditures, product development and other liquidity requirements associated with our operations, with cash flow provided by operating activities and borrowings under our credit facilities. From time to time, we have also issued debt to supplement our cash needs, repay our other indebtedness, or finance our acquisitions. We continue to expect that cash generated from our operating activities,
34
together with borrowings under our revolving credit facility and other borrowing capacity, will be sufficient to fund our continuing operating needs for the foreseeable future.
In addition to our revolving credit facility, we have various foreign credit facilities, some of which are tied to net amounts on deposit at certain foreign financial institutions. These foreign credit facilities are reviewed annually for renewal. We use borrowings under these foreign credit facilities to finance certain local operations on a periodic basis. For further discussion of our revolving credit facility and our other credit facilities, see Note 14, Credit facilities, short-term borrowings and long-term debt in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item I of this Form 10-Q.
At June 30, 2022, we had total outstanding debt of $766,402 consisting of various series of unsecured notes due between 2023 and 2033 and obligations under our finance leases.
At June 30, 2022, we had $49,200 outstanding on our revolving credit facility, all of which is classified as short-term borrowings based on our intent and ability to pay this amount in the next twelve months. Revolving credit facility and short-term borrowing activity during the nine-months ended June 30, 2022 were as follows:
|
Maximum daily balance during the period |
|

208,100 |
|
|
Average daily balance during the period |

$ |
43,384 |
|
|

At June 30, 2022, we had additional borrowing availability of $940,684 under our revolving credit facility, net of outstanding letters of credit, and additional borrowing availability of $27,387 under various foreign credit facilities.
To our knowledge, we were in compliance with all our debt covenants as of June 30, 2022. Additionally, we do not believe the current known impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic will affect our ability to remain in compliance with our debt covenants. See Note 15, Credit facilities, short-term borrowings and long-term debt in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of our most recently filed Form 10-K, for more information about our covenants.
In addition to utilizing our cash resources to fund the working capital needs of our business, we evaluate additional strategic uses of our funds, including the repurchase of our common stock, payment of dividends, significant capital expenditures, consideration of strategic acquisitions and other potential uses of cash.
Our ability to service our long-term debt, to remain in compliance with the various restrictions and covenants contained in our debt agreements, and to fund working capital, capital expenditures and product development efforts will depend on our ability to generate cash from operating activities, which in turn is subject to, among other things, future operating performance as well as general economic, financial, competitive, legislative, regulatory, and other conditions, some of which may be beyond our control. We do not believe the current known impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic will impact our ability to satisfy our long-term debt obligations.
In November 2019, the Board had authorized a program for the repurchase of up to $500,000 of Woodward’s outstanding shares of common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions over a three-year period that was scheduled to expire in November 2022 (the “2019 Authorization”). During the the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, we repurchased 233 shares of our common stock for $26,742 under the 2019 Authorization. During the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021, we repurchased no shares of our common stock under the 2019 Authorization.
In January 2022, the Board terminated the 2019 Authorization and concurrently authorized a program for the repurchase of up to $800,000 of Woodward’s outstanding shares of common stock on the open market or in privately negotiated transactions over a two-year period ending in January 2024 (the “2022 Authorization”). During the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, we repurchased 3,441 shares of our common stock for $400,975 under the 2022 Authorization.
We believe that cash flows from operations, along with our contractually committed borrowings and other borrowing capability, will continue to be sufficient to fund anticipated capital spending requirements and our operations for the foreseeable future. However, we could be adversely affected if the financial institutions providing our capital requirements refuse to honor their contractual commitments, cease lending, or declare bankruptcy. We believe the lending institutions participating in our credit arrangements are financially stable and do not currently foresee adverse impacts to financial institutions supporting our capital requirements.

Net cash flows provided by operating activities for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 was $86,016, compared to $317,915 for the same period of fiscal year 2021. The decrease in net cash provided by operating activities in the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the first nine-months of the prior fiscal year is primarily attributable to increases in working capital (excluding cash) to support anticipated growth in the fourth quarter of fiscal year 2022 and the next full fiscal year, and the timing of cash payments to suppliers.
Net cash flows used in investing activities for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 was $29,415, compared to net cash flows used in investing activities of $18,966 for the same period of fiscal year 2021. The increase in cash flows used in investing activities in the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the first nine-months of the prior fiscal year is primarily due to increased payments for property, plant and equipment, partially offset by certain proceeds received in the third quarter of fiscal year 2022 in connection with the sale of the renewable power systems business and other related businesses.
Net cash flows used in financing activities for the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 was $404,966, compared to $94,729 for the same period of fiscal year 2021. The increase in net cash flows used in financing activities in the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022 as compared to the first nine-months of the prior fiscal year is primarily attributable to repurchases of common stock, partially offset by the change in net debt payments. During the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, we made $440,233 of cash repurchases of common stock, while there were no such repurchases in the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021. During the first nine-months of fiscal year 2022, we had net debt payments in the amount of $48,566, compared to net debt payments in the amount of $101,214 in the first nine-months of fiscal year 2021.
Non-U.S. GAAP Financial Measures
Adjusted net earnings, adjusted earnings per share, adjusted effective tax rate, EBIT, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, adjusted EBITDA, free cash flow, and adjusted free cash flow are financial measures not prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. However, we believe these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures provide additional information that enables readers to evaluate our business from the perspective of management.
36
Earnings based non‐U.S. GAAP financial measures
Adjusted net earnings is defined by the Company as net earnings excluding, as applicable, (i) a charge in connection with a non-recurring matter unrelated to the ongoing operations of the business, and (ii) costs related to business development activities. The Company believes that these excluded items are short‐term in nature, not directly related to the ongoing operations of the business and therefore, the exclusion of them illustrates more clearly how the underlying business of Woodward is performing. Management uses adjusted net earnings to evaluate the Company’s performance excluding these infrequent or unusual period expenses that are not necessarily indicative of the Company’s operating performance for the period. Management defines adjusted earnings per share as adjusted net earnings, as defined above, divided by the weighted‐average number of diluted shares of common stock outstanding for the period. Management uses both adjusted net earnings and adjusted earnings per share when comparing operating performance to other periods which may not have similar, infrequent or unusual charges.
The reconciliation of net earnings and earnings per share to adjusted net earnings and adjusted earnings per share, respectively, is shown in the tables below:

Management uses EBIT to evaluate Woodward’s performance without financing and tax related considerations, as these elements do not fluctuate with operating results. Management uses EBITDA in evaluating Woodward’s operating performance, making business decisions, including developing budgets, managing expenditures, forecasting future periods, and evaluating capital structure impacts of various strategic scenarios. Securities analysts, investors and others frequently use EBIT and EBITDA in their evaluation of companies, particularly those with significant property, plant, and equipment, and intangible assets subject to amortization. The Company believes that EBIT and EBITDA are useful measures to the investor when measuring operating performance as they eliminate the impact of financing and tax expenses, which are non-operating expenses and may be driven by factors outside of the Company’s operations, such as changes in tax laws or regulations, and, in the case of EBITDA, the noncash charges associated with depreciation and amortization. Further, as interest from financing, income taxes, depreciation and amortization can vary dramatically between companies and between periods, management believes that the removal of these items can improve comparability.
Adjusted EBIT and adjusted EBITDA represent further non-U.S. GAAP adjustments to EBIT and EBITDA, in each case adjusted to exclude, as applicable (i) a charge in connection with a non-recurring matter unrelated to the ongoing operations of the business, and (ii) costs related to business development activities. As these charges are infrequent or unusual items that can be variable from period to period and do not fluctuate with operating results, management believes that by removing these gains and charges from EBIT and EBITDA it improves comparability of past, present and future operating results and provides consistency when comparing EBIT and EBITDA between periods.
EBIT and adjusted EBIT reconciled to net earnings were as follows:

The use of these non-U.S. GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation of, or as a substitute for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. As adjusted net earnings, adjusted net earnings per share, adjusted effective tax rate, EBIT, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA exclude certain financial information compared with net earnings, the most comparable U.S. GAAP financial measure, users of this financial information should consider the information that is excluded. Our calculations of adjusted net earnings, adjusted net earnings per share, adjusted effective tax rate, EBIT, adjusted EBIT, EBITDA, and adjusted EBITDA may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
Cash flow‐based non‐U.S. GAAP financial measures
Management uses free cash flow, which is defined by the Company as net cash flows provided by operating activities less payments for property, plant and equipment, in reviewing the financial performance of and cash generation by Woodward’s various business groups and evaluating cash levels. We believe free cash flow is a useful measure for investors because it portrays our ability to grow organically and generate cash from our businesses for purposes such as paying interest on our indebtedness, repaying maturing debt, funding business acquisitions, investing in research and development, purchasing our common stock, and paying dividends. In addition, securities analysts, investors, and others frequently use free cash flow in their evaluation of companies. Adjusted free cash flow represents a further non-U.S. GAAP adjustment to free cash flow to exclude the effect of cash paid for business development activities and cash paid for restructuring activities. Management believes that by excluding these infrequent or unusual items from free cash flow it better portrays our ability to generate cash, as such items are not indicative of the Company’s operating performance for the period.
The use of these non‐U.S. GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation of, or as substitutes for, the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow do not necessarily represent funds available for discretionary use and is not necessarily a measure of our ability to fund our cash needs. Our calculation of free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow may differ from similarly titled measures used by other companies, limiting their usefulness as comparative measures.
Free cash flow and adjusted free cash flow reconciled to net cash provided by operating activities were as follows:

CRITICAL ACCOUNTING POLICIES AND ESTIMATES
The preparation of financial statements and related disclosures in conformity with U.S. GAAP requires us to make judgments, assumptions and estimates that affect the amounts reported in the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements and accompanying notes. Note 1, Operations and summary of significant accounting policies in the Notes to the Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part II, Item 8 of our most recently filed Form 10-K, describes the significant accounting policies and methods used in the preparation of the Consolidated Financial Statements. Our critical accounting estimates, identified in Management’s Discussion and Analysis of Financial Condition and Results of Operations in Part II, Item 7 of our most recently filed Form 10-K, include the discussion of estimates used for revenue recognition, inventory valuation, reviews for impairment of goodwill and other indefinitely lived intangible assets, and our provision for income taxes. Such accounting policies and estimates require significant judgments and assumptions to be used in the preparation of the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in this Form 10-Q, and actual results could differ materially from the amounts reported.
New Accounting Standards
From time to time, the FASB or other standards-setting bodies issue new accounting pronouncements. Updates to the FASB Accounting Standards Codification are communicated through issuance of an Accounting Standards Update.
To understand the impact of recently issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted, please review the information provided in Note 2, New accounting standards in the Notes to the Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements included in Part I, Item 1 of this Form 10-Q. Unless otherwise discussed, we believe that the impact of recently
39
issued guidance, whether adopted or to be adopted in the future, is not expected to have a material impact on our Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements upon adoption.

Item 3. |
Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk |
In the normal course of business, we have exposures to interest rate risk from our long-term and short-term debt and our postretirement benefit plans, and foreign currency exchange rate risk related to our foreign operations and foreign currency transactions. We are also exposed to various market risks that arise from transactions entered into in the normal course of business related to items such as the cost of raw materials and changes in inflation. Certain contractual relationships with customers and vendors mitigate risks from changes in raw material costs and foreign currency exchange rate changes that arise from normal purchasing and normal sales activities.
These market risks are discussed more fully in “Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk” in Part II, Item 7A of our most recent Form 10-K. These market risks have not materially changed since the date our most recent Form 10-K was filed with the SEC.
|
Item 4. |
Controls and Procedures |
We have established disclosure controls and procedures, which are designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in reports filed or submitted under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended (the “Act”) is recorded, processed, summarized, and reported within the time periods specified in the SEC’s rules and forms. These disclosure controls and procedures include, without limitation, controls and procedures designed to ensure that information required to be disclosed in the reports that we file or submit under the Act is accumulated and communicated to management, including our Principal Executive Officer (Charles (“Chip”) P. Blankenship, Jr., Chairman of the Board, Chief Executive Officer and President) and Principal Financial and Accounting Officer (Mark D. Hartman, Chief Financial Officer), as appropriate, to allow timely decisions regarding required disclosures.
Chip P. Blankenship, Jr. and Mark D. Hartman evaluated the effectiveness of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rules 13a-15 under the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, or the Exchange Act), as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q. Based on their evaluations, they concluded that our disclosure controls and procedures were effective at the reasonable assurance level as of June 30, 2022.
There have not been any changes in our internal controls over financial reporting during the quarter ended June 30, 2022 that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, our internal control over financial reporting.
PART II – OTHER INFORMATION
|
Item 1. |
Legal Proceedings |
Woodward is currently involved in claims, pending or threatened litigation or other legal proceedings, investigations and/or regulatory proceedings arising in the normal course of business, including, among others, those relating to product liability claims, employment matters, worker’s compensation claims, contractual disputes, product warranty claims and alleged violations of various laws and regulations. Woodward accrues for known individual matters using estimates of the most likely amount of loss where it believes that it is probable the matter will result in a loss when ultimately resolved and such loss is reasonably estimable.
While the outcome of pending claims, legal and regulatory proceedings, and investigations cannot be predicted with certainty, management believes that any liabilities that may result from these claims, proceedings and investigations will not have a material effect on Woodward's liquidity, financial condition, or results of operations.

Item 1A. |

The risk factors that were disclosed in our most recent Form 10-K have not materially changed since the date our most recent Form 10-K was filed with the SEC.
