NOTES TO CONDENSED CONSOLIDATED FINANCIAL STATEMENTS - UNAUDITED
(in thousands except for share and per share data)
June 30, 2021
NOTE 1 — Basis of Presentation and Summary of Significant Accounting Policies
The accompanying condensed consolidated financial statements have been prepared by CTS Corporation (“CTS”, "we", "our", "us" or the "Company”), without audit, pursuant to the rules and regulations of the Securities and Exchange Commission. Certain information and footnote disclosures normally included in financial statements prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles have been omitted pursuant to such rules and regulations. The unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with the financial statements, notes thereto, and other information included in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10‑K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements reflect, in the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring items) necessary for a fair statement, in all material respects, of the financial position and results of operations for the periods presented. The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, the disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenues and expenses during the reported period. Actual results could differ materially from those estimates. The results of operations for the interim periods are not necessarily indicative of the results for the entire year. Certain reclassifications have been made to prior year amounts to conform to the current year presentation. The reclassifications had no impact on previously reported net earnings.
There have been no material changes in the Company’s significant accounting policies as compared to the significant accounting policies described in the Company’s Annual Report on Form 10-K for the year ended December 31, 2020.
Accounting Pronouncements Recently Adopted
In December 2019, the Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) issued Accounting Standards Update (“ASU”) 2019-12, Simplifying the Accounting for Income Taxes, as part of its simplification initiative to reduce the cost and complexity in accounting for income taxes. ASU 2019-12 removes certain exceptions related to the approach for intraperiod tax allocation, the methodology for calculating income taxes in an interim period, and the recognition of deferred tax liabilities for outside basis differences. ASU 2019-12 also amends other aspects of the guidance to help simplify and promote consistent application of U.S. GAAP. The guidance is effective for interim and annual periods beginning after December 15, 2020, with early adoption permitted. We adopted this ASU on January 1, 2021 and it did not have a material impact on our financial statements.
Recently Issued Accounting Pronouncements
In March 2020, the FASB issued ASU 2020-04, “Reference Rate Reform (Topic 848): Facilitation of the Effects of Reference Rate Reform on Financial Reporting”, which provides temporary optional guidance for a limited period of time to ease the potential burden in accounting for (or recognizing the effects of) reference rate reform on financial reporting as it relates to our LIBOR indexed instruments. ASU 2020-04 provides optional expedients and exceptions for applying U.S. GAAP to contracts, hedging relationships, and other transactions affected by reference rate reform if certain criteria are met. ASU 2020-04 is effective for all entities as of March 12, 2020 through December 31, 2022, and an entity may elect to apply ASU 2020-04 for contract modifications by Topic or Industry Subtopic as of any date from the beginning of an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, or prospectively from a date within an interim period that includes or is subsequent to March 12, 2020, up to the date that the financial statements are available to be issued. We are currently evaluating the impact of the transition from LIBOR to an alternative reference interest rate in our financial instruments including the potential election of certain practical expedients. Our LIBOR based revolving credit facility includes a provision for the determination of a successor LIBOR rate, and we are still evaluating the impact to potential future hedging activities.

NOTE 2 – Revenue Recognition
The core principle of Accounting Standard Codification (“ASC”) 606 Revenue from Contracts with Customers is that an entity should recognize revenue to depict the transfer of promised goods or services to customers in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the entity expects to be entitled in exchange for those goods or services. The guidance provides a five-step process to achieve that core principle:
|
•
|
Identify the contract(s) with a customer
|
|
•
|
Identify the performance obligations
|
|
•
|
Determine the transaction price
|
|
•
|
Allocate the transaction price
|
|
•
|
Recognize revenue when the performance obligations are met
|
We recognize revenue when the performance obligations specified in our contracts have been satisfied, after considering the impact of variable consideration and other factors that may affect the transaction price. Our contracts normally contain a single performance obligation that is fulfilled on the date of delivery or shipment based on shipping terms stipulated in the contract. We usually expect payment within 30 to 90 days from the shipping date, depending on our terms with the customer. None of our contracts as of June 30, 2021 contained a significant financing component. Differences between the amount of revenue recognized and the amount invoiced, collected from, or paid to our customers are recognized as contract assets or liabilities. Contract assets will be reviewed for impairment when events or circumstances indicate that they may not be recoverable.
To the extent the transaction price includes variable consideration, we estimate the amount of variable consideration that should be included in the transaction price utilizing the most likely amount method based on an analysis of historical experience and current facts and circumstances, which requires significant judgment. Variable consideration is included in the transaction price if, in our judgment, it is probable that a significant future reversal of cumulative revenue under the contract will not occur.

NOTE 3 – Business Acquisitions
On December 30, 2020, we acquired 100% of the outstanding shares of Sensor Scientific, Inc. (“SSI”). SSI is a manufacturer of high-quality thermistors and temperature sensor assemblies serving original equipment manufacturers (“OEMs”) for applications that require precision and reliability in the medical, industrial and defense markets. SSI has complementary capabilities with our existing temperature sensing platform and the acquisition expands our presence in the medical and industrial end markets. It also provides high quality ceramic processing capabilities and valuable customer partnerships that expands our temperature sensing product portfolio and builds on our strategy to focus on innovative products that sense, connect and move.
The purchase price, which includes assumed changes in working capital, of $10,309 has been allocated to the fair values of assets and liabilities acquired as of December 30, 2020. The allocation of the purchase price continues to be preliminary pending the completion of the final net working capital adjustment, which is expected to occur in the third quarter. The information included below represents our current estimate of the purchase price allocation and is not expected to materially change.

Goodwill represents value the Company expects to be created by combining the operations of the acquired business with the Company's operations, including the expansion of customer relationships, access to new customers, and potential cost savings and synergies. Goodwill related to the acquisition is expected to be deductible for tax purposes.
All contingent consideration is payable in cash and is based on success factors related to the integration process as well as upon the achievement of a revenue performance target through the year ending December 31, 2022, with the possibility of prorated interim payments. The Company recorded $2,000 as the acquisition date fair value of the contingent consideration based on an estimate of the probability of achieving the performance targets. This represents the maximum amount of contingent consideration payable by the Company. This amount is also reflected as an addition to the purchase price and will be evaluated quarterly. Refer to Note 17 for further information on contingent consideration.

In February 2020, the CTS Board of Directors authorized management to explore termination of the U.S.-based pension plan ("Plan"), subject to certain conditions. On June 1, 2020, we entered into the Fifth Amendment to the Plan whereby we set an effective termination date for the Plan of July 31, 2020. In February 2021, we received a determination letter from the Internal Revenue Service that allowed us to proceed with the termination process for the Plan. During the second quarter of 2021, the Company offered the option of receiving a lump sum payment to eligible participants with vested qualified Plan benefits in lieu of receiving monthly annuity payments. Approximately 365 participants elected to receive the settlement, and lump sum payments of approximately $35,594 were made from Plan assets to these participants in June 2021.
As required under US GAAP, the Company recognizes a settlement gain or loss when the aggregate amount of lump-sum distributions to participants equals or exceeds the sum of the service and interest cost components of the net periodic pension cost. The amount of settlement gain or loss recognized is the pro rata amount of the existing unrealized gain or loss immediately prior to the settlement. In general, both the projected benefit obligation and fair value of plan assets are required to be remeasured in order to determine the settlement gain or loss.
Upon the partial settlement of the pension liability due to the lump sum offering the Company recognized a non-cash and non-operating settlement charge of $20,063 related to pension losses, reclassified from accumulated other comprehensive loss to other (income) expense in the Company's Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
Upon final settlement of the pension liability with the purchase of annuities, expected to occur in the third quarter, we will reclassify the remaining related unrecognized pension losses, currently recorded in accumulated other comprehensive loss, to the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings. Since the final amount of the settlement depends on a number of factors determined as of the liquidation date, including the annuity pricing interest rate environment and asset performance, the unrecognized losses value may fluctuate from June 30, 2021. As of June 30, 2021, we had gross unrecognized pension losses related to the Plan of $101,125.
We do not expect any cash contributions from the Company to the Plan as a result of this termination as Plan assets continue to significantly exceed estimated liabilities.

In addition to the purchase accounting adjustments from the SSI transaction, goodwill increased due to an acquisition completed during the second quarter. The purchase price was approximately $510, with $255 paid in the second quarter of 2021 and an additional $255 to be paid in the second quarter of 2022. We expect small adjustments to the purchase price allocation to be completed in the third quarter.

September 2020 Plan
In September 2020, we initiated a restructuring plan focused on optimizing our manufacturing footprint and improving operational efficiency by better utilizing our systems capabilities (the "September 2020 Plan"). This plan includes transitioning certain administrative functions to a shared service center, realignment of manufacturing locations, and certain other efficiency improvement actions. The restructuring cost of the September 2020 Plan is estimated to be in the range of $4,600 to $6,000, including workforce reduction charges, building and equipment relocation charges and other contract and asset-related costs. In addition to these charges, we expect an additional $4,000 to $5,100 of other costs to be incurred related to initiatives that would not qualify as restructuring charges. These costs would include certain employee overlap and training costs as well as additional capital expenditures. Restructuring charges under the September 2020 Plan were $(10) during the three months ended June 30, 2021, consisting of $(10) in workforce reduction adjustments. Restructuring charges for the six months ended June 30, 2021 were $(27), consisting of $26 in workforce reduction costs and $(53) of other contract termination and facility closure cost true ups. The total restructuring liability related to the September 2020 Plan was $38 at June 30, 2021 and $512 at December 31, 2020.
June 2016 Plan
In June 2016, we announced plans to restructure operations by phasing out production at our Elkhart, IN facility and transitioning it into a research and development center supporting our global operations (the "June 2016 Plan"). Additional organizational changes were also implemented in various other locations. In 2017, we revised the June 2016 Plan to include an additional $1,100 in planned costs related to the relocation of our corporate headquarters in Lisle, IL and our plant in Bolingbrook, IL, both of which have now been consolidated into a single facility. These restructuring actions were completed as of March 31, 2021.
April 2014 Plan
In April 2014, we announced plans to restructure our operations and consolidate our Canadian operations into other existing facilities as part of our overall plan to simplify our business model and rationalize our global footprint (the “April 2014 Plan”). These restructuring actions were substantially completed during 2015 and the remaining liability was settled in the second quarter of 2021.
15
Other Restructuring Activities
From time to time we undertake other restructuring activities that are not part of a formal plan. Charges associated with these restructuring activities primarily relate to workforce reduction costs. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 we incurred restructuring charges of $161 and $262, respectively. During the three and six months ended June 30, 2020, we incurred restructuring charges of $135 and $407, respectively. The total restructuring liability associated with these actions was $163 at June 30, 2021 and $9 at December 31, 2020.

NOTE 11 – Commitments and Contingencies
Certain processes in the manufacture of our current and past products create by-products classified as hazardous waste. We have been notified by the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency, state environmental agencies, and in some cases, groups of potentially responsible parties, that we may be potentially liable for environmental contamination at several sites currently and formerly owned or operated by us. Two of those sites, Asheville, North Carolina and Mountain View, California, are designated National Priorities List sites under the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency’s Superfund program. We accrue a liability for probable remediation activities, claims and proceedings against us with respect to environmental matters if the amount can be reasonably estimated, and provide disclosures including the nature of a loss whenever it is probable or reasonably possible that a potentially material loss may have occurred but cannot be estimated. We record contingent loss accruals on an undiscounted basis.

Unrelated to the environmental claims described above, certain other legal claims are pending against us with respect to matters arising out of the ordinary conduct of our business.
We provide product warranties when we sell our products and accrue for estimated liabilities at the time of sale. Warranty estimates are forecasts based on the best available information and historical claims experience. We accrue for specific warranty claims if we believe that the facts of a specific claim make it probable that a liability in excess of our historical experience has been or will be incurred, and provide disclosures for specific claims whenever it is reasonably possible that a material loss may be incurred which cannot be estimated.
We cannot provide assurance that the ultimate disposition of environmental, legal, and product warranty claims will not materially exceed the amount of our accrued losses and adversely impact our consolidated financial position, results of operations, or cash flows. Our accrued liabilities and disclosures will be adjusted accordingly if additional information becomes available in the future.

On February 12, 2019, we entered into an amended and restated five-year Credit Agreement with a group of banks (the "Credit Agreement") to extend the term of the facility. The Credit Agreement provides for a revolving credit facility of $300,000, which may be increased by $150,000 at the request of the Company, subject to the administrative agent's approval.
The revolving credit facility includes a swing line sublimit of $15,000 and a letter of credit sublimit of $10,000. Borrowings under the revolving credit facility bear interest at the base rate defined in the Credit Agreement. We also pay a quarterly commitment fee on the unused portion of the revolving credit facility. The commitment fee ranges from 0.20% to 0.30% based on our total leverage ratio.
The Credit Agreement requires, among other things, that we comply with a maximum total leverage ratio and a minimum fixed charge coverage ratio. Failure to comply with these covenants could reduce the borrowing availability under the revolving credit facility. We were compliant with all debt covenants at June 30, 2021. The Credit Agreement requires that we deliver quarterly financial statements, annual financial statements, auditor certifications, and compliance certificates within a specified number of days after the end of a quarter and year. Additionally, it contains restrictions limiting our ability to: dispose of assets; incur certain additional debt; repay other debt or amend subordinated debt instruments; create liens on assets; make investments, loans or advances; make acquisitions or engage in mergers or consolidations; engage in certain transactions with our subsidiaries and affiliates; and make stock repurchases and dividend payments. Interest rates on the credit facility fluctuate based upon the LIBOR and the Company’s quarterly total leverage ratio.
We have debt issuance costs related to our long-term debt that are being amortized using the straight-line method over the life of the debt. Amortization expense for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 was approximately $42 and $42 and $84 and $84, respectively. These costs are included in interest expense in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.
We use interest rate swaps to convert the revolving credit facility's variable rate of interest into a fixed rate on a portion of the debt as described more fully in Note 13 "Derivative Financial Instruments". These swaps are treated as cash flow hedges and consequently, the changes in fair value were recorded in other comprehensive earnings.
Note 13 - Derivative Financial Instruments
Our earnings and cash flows are subject to fluctuations due to changes in foreign currency exchange rates and interest rates. We selectively use derivative financial instruments including foreign currency forward contracts and interest rate swaps to manage our exposure to these risks.
The use of derivative financial instruments exposes the Company to credit risk, which relates to the risk of nonperformance by a counterparty to the derivative contracts. We manage our credit risk by entering derivative contracts with only highly rated financial institutions and by using netting agreements.
The effective portion of derivative gains and losses are recorded in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income until the hedged transaction affects earnings upon settlement, at which time they are reclassified to cost of goods sold or net sales. If it is probable that
18
an anticipated hedged transaction will not occur by the end of the originally specified time period, we reclassify the gains or losses related to that hedge from accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income to other expense, net.
We assess hedge effectiveness qualitatively by verifying that the critical terms of the hedging instrument and the forecasted transaction continue to match, and that there have been no adverse developments that have increased the risk that the counterparty will default. No recognition of ineffectiveness was recorded in our Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021.
Foreign Currency Hedges
We use forward contracts to mitigate currency risk related to a portion of our forecasted foreign currency revenues and costs. The currency forward contracts are designed as cash flow hedges and are recorded in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets at fair value.
We continue to monitor the Company’s overall currency exposure and may elect to add cash flow hedges in the future. At June 30, 2021, we had a net unrealized gain of $811 in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income, of which $808 is expected to be reclassified to earnings within the next 12 months. At June 30, 2020, we had a net unrealized loss of $1,247 in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income. The notional amount of foreign currency forward contracts outstanding was $11,430 at June 30, 2021.
Interest Rate Swaps
We use interest rate swaps to convert a portion of our revolving credit facility’s outstanding balance from a variable rate of interest to a fixed rate. As of June 30, 2021, we have agreements to fix interest rates on $50,000 of long-term debt through February 2024. The difference to be paid or received under the terms of the swap agreements will be recognized as an adjustment to interest expense when settled.
These swaps are treated as cash flow hedges and consequently, the changes in fair value are recorded in other comprehensive (loss) income. The estimated net amount of the existing losses that are reported in accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income that are expected to be reclassified into earnings within the next twelve months is approximately $523.
The location and fair values of derivative instruments designated as hedging instruments in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets as of June 30, 2021, are shown in the following table:

NOTE 14 – Accumulated Other Comprehensive (Loss) Income
Shareholders’ equity includes certain items classified as accumulated other comprehensive (loss) income (“AOCI”) in the Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets, including:
|
•
|
Unrealized gains (losses) on hedges relate to interest rate swaps to convert a portion of our revolving credit facility's outstanding balance from a variable rate of interest into a fixed rate and foreign currency forward contracts used to hedge our exposure to changes in exchange rates affecting certain revenues and costs denominated in foreign currencies. These hedges are designated as cash flow hedges, and we have deferred income statement recognition of gains and losses until the hedged transactions occur, at which time amounts are reclassified into earnings. Further information related to our derivative financial instruments is included in Note 13 - Derivative Financial Instruments and Note 17 – Fair Value Measurements.
|
|
•
|
Unrealized gains (losses) on pension obligations are deferred from income statement recognition until the gains or losses are realized. Amounts reclassified to income from AOCI are included in net periodic pension income (expense). Further information related to our pension obligations is included in Note 7 – Retirement Plans.
|
|
•
|
Cumulative translation adjustments relate to our non-U.S. subsidiary companies that have designated a functional currency other than the U.S. dollar. We are required to translate the subsidiary functional currency financial statements to dollars using a combination of historical, period-end, and average foreign exchange rates. This combination of rates creates the foreign currency translation adjustment component of other comprehensive income.
|
Changes in exchange rates between the functional currency and the currency in which a transaction is denominated are foreign exchange transaction gains or losses. Transaction losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2021 were $928 and $(401), respectively, and transaction losses for the three and six months ended June 30, 2020 were $892 and $(379), respectively, which have been included in other (expense) income in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings.

On May 13, 2021, the Board of Directors approved a new share repurchase program that authorizes the Company to repurchase up to $50,000 of the Company’s common stock. The repurchase program has no set expiration date and replaces the repurchase program approved by the Board of Directors on February 7, 2019. During the six months ended June 30, 2021, no shares of common stock were repurchased. During the six months ended June 30, 2020, 342,731 shares of common stock were repurchased for $8,080. Approximately $50,000 is available for future purchases.
A roll-forward of common shares outstanding is as follows:

Certain potentially dilutive restricted stock units are excluded from diluted earnings per share because they are anti-dilutive. The number of outstanding awards that were anti-dilutive for the three months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were 93 and 84,720, respectively. The number of outstanding awards that were anti-dilutive for the six months ended June 30, 2021 and 2020 were 46,810 and 61,780, respectively.
NOTE 16 - Stock-Based Compensation
At June 30, 2021, we had five active stock-based compensation plans: the Non-Employee Directors’ Stock Retirement Plan (“Directors’ Plan”), the 2004 Omnibus Long-Term Incentive Plan (“2004 Plan”), the 2009 Omnibus Equity and Performance Incentive Plan (“2009 Plan”), the 2014 Performance and Incentive Compensation Plan (“2014 Plan”), and the 2018 Equity and Incentive Compensation Plan ("2018 Plan"). Future grants can only be made under the 2018 Plan.
These plans allow for grants of stock options, stock appreciation rights, restricted stock, restricted stock units ("RSUs"), performance shares, performance units, and other stock awards subject to the terms of the specific plans under which the awards are granted.
The following table summarizes the compensation expense included in selling, general and administrative expenses in the Condensed Consolidated Statements of Earnings related to stock-based compensation plans:

Cash-Settled Restricted Stock Units
Cash-Settled RSUs entitle the holder to receive the cash equivalent of one share of common stock for each unit when the unit vests. These RSUs are issued to key employees residing in foreign locations as direct compensation. Generally, these RSUs vest over a three-year period. Cash-Settled RSUs are classified as liabilities and are remeasured at each reporting date until settled. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020 we had 32,085 and 30,009 cash-settled RSUs outstanding, respectively. At June 30, 2021 and December 31, 2020, liabilities of $261 and $396, respectively, were included in accrued expenses and other liabilities on our Condensed Consolidated Balance Sheets.

We use interest rate swaps to convert a portion of our revolving credit facility’s outstanding balance from a variable rate of interest into a fixed rate and foreign currency forward contracts to hedge the effect of foreign currency changes on certain revenues and costs denominated in foreign currencies. These derivative financial instruments are measured at fair value on a recurring basis. The fair value of our interest rate swaps, and foreign currency hedges were measured using standard valuation models using market-based observable inputs over the contractual terms, including forward yield curves, among others. There is a readily determinable market for these derivative instruments, but that market is not active and therefore they are classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy.
The fair value of the contingent consideration requires significant judgment. The Company's fair value estimates used in the contingent consideration valuation are considered Level 3 fair value measurements. The fair value estimates were based on assumptions management believes to be reasonable, but that are inherently uncertain, including estimates of future revenues and timing of events and activities that are expected to take place. Refer to Note 3 for further discussion on contingent consideration.
A roll-forward of the contingent consideration is as follows:

Our long-term debt consists of debt outstanding under the revolving credit facility which is recorded at its carrying value. There is a readily determinable market for our long-term debt, and it is classified within Level 2 of the fair value hierarchy as the market is not deemed to be active. The fair value of long-term debt approximates carrying value and was determined by valuing a similar hypothetical coupon bond and attributing that value to our long-term debt under the revolving credit facility.

Our effective income tax rate was 245.6% and 17.6% in the second quarters of 2021 and 2020, respectively. This increase is primarily attributed to a one-time settlement expense related to lump sum payments made for the CTS Corporation U.S. pension plan. The second quarter 2021 tax rate was higher than the U.S. statutory federal tax rate for the same reason noted above. The second quarter 2020 tax rate was lower than the U.S. statutory federal tax rate due to foreign earnings that are taxed at lower rates and a reduction in reserves related to uncertain tax positions.

Our effective income tax rate was 9.3% and 27.1% in the first half of 2021 and 2020, respectively. This decrease is primarily attributed to the change in mix of earnings by jurisdiction, a one-time settlement expense related to lump sum payments made for the CTS Corporation U.S. pension plan, and tax benefits recorded upon vesting of restricted stock units. The tax rate in the first half of 2021 was lower than the U.S. statutory federal tax rate for the same reason noted above. The tax rate in the first half of 2020 was higher than the U.S. statutory federal tax rate primarily due to the establishment of valuation allowances on certain U.S. tax credits and the Company’s decision to no longer reinvest the earnings of its Taiwan subsidiary offset by a reduction in reserves related to uncertain tax positions.
