Notes to Condensed Consolidated Financial Statements
(Unaudited)
NOTE 1: BASIS OF PRESENTATION
The accompanying unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements for CVD Equipment Corporation and Subsidiaries (collectively “the Company”) have been prepared in accordance with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for interim financial information and with the instructions to Form 10-Q and Article 8 of Regulation S-X. They do not include all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. In the opinion of management, all adjustments (consisting of normal recurring accruals) considered necessary in order to make the interim financials not misleading have been included and all such adjustments are of a normal recurring nature. The operating results for the three months ended March 31, 2025 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year ending December 31, 2025.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2024 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at such date, as filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on March 19, 2025, but does not contain all of the information and footnotes required by accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America for complete financial statements. These unaudited condensed consolidated financial statements should be read in conjunction with that report.
All material intercompany balances and transactions have been eliminated in consolidation.
Reclassifications
Certain reclassifications have been made to the prior period condensed consolidated financial statements to conform to the current period presentation. These reclassifications had no effect on net loss.

NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with Financial Accounting Standards Board (“FASB”) Accounting Standards Codification (“ASC”) 606 - Revenue from Contracts with Customers (“ASC 606”), the Company records revenue in an amount that reflects the consideration to which the Company expects to be entitled in exchange for goods or services promised to its customers. Under ASC 606, the Company follows a five-step model to: (1) identify the contract with the customer; (2) identify the performance obligations in the contract; (3) determine the transaction price for the contract; (4) allocate the transaction price to the performance obligations; and (5) recognize revenue using one of the following two methods:
Over time
The Company designs, manufactures and sells custom chemical vapor deposition, thermal process equipment and other equipment through contractual agreements. These system sales require the Company to deliver functioning equipment that is generally completed within two to eighteen months from commencement of order acceptance. For systems sales that meet the criteria to recognize revenue over time, the Company recognizes revenue over time by using an input method based on costs incurred as it depicts the Company’s progress toward satisfaction of the performance obligation. For system sales that do not meet the criteria to recognize revenue over time based on the contract provisions, the Company recognizes revenue based on point in time.
Under the over time method,
revenue arising from fixed price contracts is recognized as work is performed based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total
estimated costs at completion of the performance obligations. Incurred costs include all direct material and labor costs and those indirect
costs related to contract performance, such as supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs. Contract material costs are included in
incurred costs when the project materials have been purchased or moved to work-in-process, and installed, as required by the project’s
engineering design. Cost based input methods of revenue recognition require the Company to make estimates of costs to complete the projects.
In making such estimates, significant judgment is required to evaluate assumptions related to the
costs to complete the projects, including materials, labor and other system costs. If the estimated total costs on any contract are greater
than the net contract revenues, the Company recognizes the entire estimated loss in the period the loss becomes known and can be reasonably
estimated. There were
The timing of revenue recognition, billings and collections results in accounts receivables, unbilled receivables or contract assets and contract liabilities on our consolidated balance sheet. Under typical payment terms for our contracts accounted for over time, amounts are billed as work progresses in accordance with agreed-upon contractual terms, either at periodic intervals or upon achievement of contractual milestones.
| 8 |
| NOTE 2: | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
Under ASC 606, payments received from customers in excess of revenue recognized to date result in a contract liability. These contract liabilities are not considered to represent a significant financing component of the contract because we believe these cash advances and deposits are generally used to meet working capital demands, which can be higher in the earlier stages of a contract. Also, advanced payments and deposits provide us with some measure of assurance that the customer will perform on its obligations under the contract.
Contract assets include unbilled amounts typically resulting from system sales under contracts and represents revenue recognized that exceeds the amount billed to the customer.
Contract liabilities include advance payments and billings in excess of revenue recognized. The Company typically receives down payments upon receipt of order and progress payments as the system is manufactured.
Contract assets and contract liabilities are classified as current as these contracts in progress are expected to be substantially completed within the next twelve months.
Point in time
For non-system sales of products and services, revenue is recognized at the point in time when control of the promised products or services is transferred to the Company’s customers, in an amount that reflects the consideration the Company expects to be entitled to in exchange for those products or services (the transaction price). A performance obligation is a promise in a contract to transfer a distinct product or service to a customer and is the unit of account under ASC 606, “Revenue from Contracts with Customers.”
For any system equipment sales where the equipment would have an alternative use or where the contract provisions of the contract preclude the use of over time revenue recognition, revenue is recognized at the point in time when control of the equipment is transferred to the customer. For the three months ended March 31, 2025 and 2024, all system equipment sales were recorded over time by using an input method except for a) one contract that was recorded as revenue at the point in time the equipment was transferred to the customer during the third quarter of fiscal year 2024 and b) one contract that was entered during 2024 and will be recognized as revenue after March 31, 2025 upon transfer of the equipment to the customer.

| NOTE 2: | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
Inventories
Inventories (raw materials, work-in-process and finished goods) are valued at the lower of cost (determined on the first-in, first-out method) or net realizable value. Work-in-process and finished goods inventory reflect all accumulated production costs, which are comprised of direct production costs and overhead, and is reduced by amounts recorded in cost of sales as the related revenue is recognized. Indirect costs relating to long-term contracts, which include expenses such as general and administrative, are charged to expenses as incurred and are not included in our cost of sales or work-in-process and finished goods inventory.
Obsolete inventory or inventory in excess of management’s estimated usage requirement is written down to its estimated net realizable value if less than cost. The Company evaluates usage requirements by analyzing historical usage, anticipated demand, alternative uses of materials, and other qualitative factors. Unanticipated changes in demand for the Company’s products may require a write down of inventory, which would be reflected in cost of sales in the period the revision is made.
Product Warranty
Recently Issued Accounting Standards
In December 2023, the FASB issued ASU 2023-09, Income Taxes (Topic 740): Improvement to Income Tax Disclosures. The amendments further enhance income tax disclosures, primarily through standardization and disaggregation of rate reconciliation categories and income taxes paid by jurisdiction. This ASU is effective for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2024, with early adoption permitted, and should be applied either prospectively or retrospectively. The Company is currently evaluating the timing of adoption and impact of this ASU on our consolidated financial statements.
| 10 |
| NOTE 2: | SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued) |
In November 2024, the FASB issued ASU 2024-03, “Disaggregation of Income Statements Expenses (Subtopic 220-40),” to improve income statement expenses disclosure. The standard requires more detailed information related to the types of expenses, including (among other items) the amounts of purchases of inventory, employee compensation, depreciation and intangible asset amortization included within each interim and annual income statement’s expense caption, as applicable. This authoritative guidance can be applied prospectively or retrospectively and will be effective for financial statements issued for annual periods beginning after December 15, 2026, and interim reporting periods within annual reporting periods beginning after December 15, 2027, with early adoption permitted. The Company is currently in the process of evaluating the impact of adoption on its consolidated financial statements.
The Company believes there is no additional new accounting guidance adopted, but not yet effective, which is relevant to the readers of our financial statements. However, there are numerous new proposals under development which, if and when enacted, may have a significant impact on our financial reporting.

Accounts receivable
The Company routinely assesses the financial strength of its customers. In accordance with the “expected credit loss” model, the carrying amount of accounts receivable is reduced by a valuation allowance that reflects the best estimate of the amounts the Company does not expect to collect. In addition to reviewing delinquent accounts receivable, the Company considers many factors in estimating our reserve, including types of customers and their credit worthiness, experience and historical data adjusted for current conditions and reasonable supportable forecasts. The Company records an allowance for credit losses based upon a specific review of all significant outstanding invoices. For those invoices not specifically reviewed, provisions are provided based upon the collection history, current economic trends and reasonable supportable forecasts.

NOTE 9: INCOME TAXES
As of March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against its net deferred tax assets. This was based on management’s assessment, including operating losses in recent years, that it is more likely than not that the net deferred tax assets may not be realized in the future. Management continues to evaluate for potential utilization of the Company’s net deferred tax assets, which have been fully reserved for, on a quarterly basis, reviewing our economic models, including projections of future operating results.
At
the end of each interim reporting period, the effective tax rate is aligned with expectations for the full year. This estimate is used
to determine the income tax provision on a year-to-date basis and may change in subsequent interim periods. The effective tax rate and
income tax expense for the three months ended March 31, 2025 was

NOTE 11: RISKS AND CONTINGENCIES
The Company operates in a challenging economic environment as the global economy continues to confront the impacts of recent executive orders by the U.S. federal administration regarding tariffs on imports from various countries including the European Union, Canada, Mexico, and China and the potential impact of actions taken by other countries in response to the announced tariffs, geopolitical conflicts and general inflationary pressures. The specific impacts on the Company have included:
| ● | Tariffs may make the Company’s products less cost competitive and reduce gross margins. The impact on the Company’s business related to these or any other tariffs that may be imposed, is uncertain and depends on multiple factors, including the duration and expansion of current tariffs, future changes to tariff rates, scope or enforcement, retaliatory measures by impacted trade partners, and related inflationary effects. In addition, economic uncertainties may potentially affect our future order rate. | |
| ● | Significant geopolitical developments across Europe and Asia (including the war in Ukraine) have and may continue to restrict the Company’s ability to procure raw materials and components such as nickel and integrated circuits, as well as impacting the Company’s ability to sell its products into China, Russia and other Eastern European and Asian regions. |
While management has initiated actions to mitigate the potential negative impacts to its revenue and profitability, the Company is unable to predict the impact that the above uncertainties may have on its future results of operations and cash flows.

Business Update
Our core strategy is to focus on growth end markets in applications related to aerospace, microelectronics including markets related to the “electrification of everything,” and industrial applications. With respect to aerospace, our systems are being used by our customers to produce ceramic matrix composite materials (“CMCs”) that will be used in next generation gas turbine jet engines with the objective of reducing jet fuel consumption and to produce specialty coatings for advanced high temperature environments.
| 21 |
The phrase “electrification of everything” refers to the shift from fossil fuels to the use of electricity to power devices, buildings, electric vehicles (“EVs”), and many other applications.
In February 2024, we received an order from a customer for our PVT200 system used to grow silicon carbide crystals for the manufacture of 200 mm wafers. We shipped this unit to the customer in the third quarter of 2024. PVT150 / PVT200 systems may provide us with standard product offerings to continue to support the EV focused market as well as energy storage, power conversion and power transmission. We plan to evaluate the market conditions and opportunities to expand our product offerings in the power electronics market.
In February 2024, we received a multisystem order from an industrial customer for approximately $10.0 million that will be used for depositing a silicon carbide protective coating on OEM components and the units are expected to be delivered over 18 to 24 months period.
In November 2024, we received a follow-on order from an aerospace company for an additional CVI 3500 system that will be used by our customer to produce ceramic matrix composite materials.
We have generally gained new customers through our industry reputation, as well as print advertising and trade show attendance. We have increased the number of trade shows and industry conferences we attend.
The global economy continues to confront the impacts of recent executive orders by the U.S. federal administration regarding tariffs on imports from various countries including the European Union, Canada, Mexico, and China and the potential impact of actions taken by other countries in response to the announced tariffs. Tariffs may make our products less cost competitive and reduce gross margins. The impact on our business related to these or any other tariffs that may be imposed, is uncertain and depends on multiple factors, including the duration and expansion of current tariffs, future changes to tariff rates, scope or enforcement, retaliatory measures by impacted trade partners, and related inflationary effects.
Historically, our orders have fluctuated based on end user market conditions, adoption of our new products and acceptance of our products. The current economic uncertainty regarding tariffs may potentially affect our future order rate. The order rate as well as other factors in our manufacturing process ultimately impacts the timing of revenue recognition, whether accounted for over time or at a point in time. Accordingly, orders received from customers and the corresponding revenue recognized may fluctuate from quarter to quarter. The sales cycle for our equipment is typically six months, but can range up to twelve to eighteen months, depending on the application and product stage of the equipment. The order cycle to manufacture and test a system also will vary from six to eighteen months for our CVD Equipment segment and two to twelve months for our SDC segment, depending on system complexity and magnitude of the system.

Revenue
Our revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was $8.3 million compared to $4.9 million for the quarter ended March 31, 2024, an increase of 69.0%.
The increase in revenue versus the prior year period was primarily attributable to higher revenue of $3.4 million from the CVD Equipment segment. Revenue from one industrial customer for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 represented 41.1% of our total revenues and 54.1% of CVD Equipment segment revenues. Revenue from one aerospace customer for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 represented 14.0% of our total revenues and 18.5% of CVD Equipment segment revenues.
The revenue contributed by our CVD Equipment segment for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 of $6.3 million (net of intersegment sales of $4,000) represented 75.9% of overall revenue as compared to $2.9 million or 59.9% of overall revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The increase in external revenues of $3.4 million or 114.1% resulted principally from increases in revenues from aerospace and industrial contracts in progress and from the sales of parts and spares.
The revenue contributed by our SDC segment for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 of $2.0 million (net of intersegment sales of $0.2 million) represented 23.9% of overall revenue as compared to $1.9 million (net of intersegment sales of $15,000) or 38.9% of overall revenue for the year quarter ended March 31, 2024. External revenue for our SDC segment increased by $0.1 million or 3.5% as customer demand for gas delivery system products was consistent with the prior year quarter.
Our order backlog at March 31, 2025 was approximately $13.8 million as compared to December 31, 2024 of $19.4 million. Our order backlog at March 31, 2025 consists of approximately $12.3 million related to remaining performance obligations of contracts in progress and not yet started and the balance of approximately $1.5 million represents other orders received from customers. As of March 31, 2025, one industrial customer represented 32.7% of our backlog and one aerospace customer represented 30.1% of our backlog. Historically, our revenues and orders have fluctuated based on changes in order rate as well as other factors in our manufacturing process that impacts the timing of revenue recognition. Accordingly, orders received from customers and revenue recognized may fluctuate from quarter to quarter.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was $2.7 million, with a gross profit margin of 32.4%, compared to a gross profit of $0.8 million and a gross profit margin of 16.2% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The increase in gross profit of $1.9 million was primarily the result of higher overall revenues, improved absorption of overhead as well as improved margins on contracts in progress as compared to contracts in progress in the prior year quarter.
| 24 |
Research and Development
For the quarter ended March 31, 2025, research and development expenses were $0.8 million, or 9.4% of revenue as compared to $0.7 million, or 15.2% for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. The increase in 2025 of 4.7% was the result of less amounts charged to cost of revenue during the quarter.
General engineering support and expenses related to the development of more standardized products and value-added development of existing products are reflected as part of research and development expense. General engineering support and expenses are charged to cost of revenue when work is performed directly on a customer order.
Selling
Selling expenses were $0.4 million or 5.1% of revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was consistent with such expenses of $0.4 million or 8.5% of revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses were $1.2 million or 14.7% of revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was consistent with such expenses of $1.3 million or 25.5% of revenue for the quarter ended March 31, 2024.
Other Income, Net
Other income, net was $107,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 as compared to other income, net of $151,000 for the quarter ended March 31, 2024. Other income consists principally of interest earned on amounts invested in U.S. treasury securities and was lower than the prior period due to less funds available for investment.
Income Taxes
We continue to evaluate the potential utilization of our net deferred tax asset, which has been fully reserved for, on a quarterly basis, by reviewing our economic models, including projections of future operating results.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of March 31, 2025, aggregate working capital was $14.5 million as compared to aggregate working capital of $13.8 million at December 31, 2024. Cash and cash equivalents at March 31, 2025 and December 31, 2024 were $10.2 million and $12.6 million, respectively.
| 25 |
Net cash used in operating activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 was $2.3 million. This decrease was principally due to the increase in contract assets of $3.0 million and a decrease in contract liabilities of $1.3 million due to revenue recognized on contracts in progress. These decreases were offset by net income of $0.4 million, non-cash expense items of $0.4 million and a decrease in accounts receivable of $0.7 million.
Net cash used in investing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 consisted of capital expenditures of $29,000 related to purchases of property and equipment and investment in a captive insurance company related to our health insurance program of $51,000.
Net cash used in financing activities for the quarter ended March 31, 2025 consisted of repayments of an equipment loan.
We believe that our cash and cash equivalent positions and our projected cash flow from operations will be sufficient to meet our working capital and capital expenditure requirements for the next twelve months from the filing of these condensed consolidated financial statements included in this Form 10-Q. We will continue to assess our operations and take actions anticipated to maintain our operating cash to support the working capital needs.
Critical Accounting Estimates
Use of Estimates
This discussion and analysis of the Company’s financial condition and results of operations is based on the Company’s consolidated financial statements, which have been prepared in accordance with generally accepted accounting principles in the United States of America, or U.S. GAAP. The preparation of these financial statements requires us to make estimates and assumptions that affect the reported amounts of assets and liabilities, disclosure of contingent assets and liabilities at the date of the financial statements and the reported amounts of revenue and expenses during the reported periods.
In accordance with U.S. GAAP, the Company bases its estimates on historical experience and on various other assumptions the Company believes are reasonable under the circumstances. Actual results may differ from these estimates under different assumptions or conditions.
We consider the following estimates within our significant accounting policies to be critical because of their complexity and the high degree of judgment involved in maintaining them. See Note 2 – “Summary of Significant Accounting Policies” of our Consolidated Financial Statements for additional information regarding our accounting policies.
Revenue Recognition
We design, manufacture, and sell custom chemical vapor deposition equipment through contractual agreements. These system sales require us to deliver functioning equipment that is generally completed within two to eighteen months from commencement of order acceptance. We recognize revenue over time by using an input method based on costs incurred as it depicts our progress toward satisfaction of the performance obligation. Under this method, revenue arising from fixed price contracts is recognized as work is performed based on the ratio of costs incurred to date to the total estimated costs at completion of the performance obligations.
| 26 |
Incurred costs include all direct material and labor costs, and those indirect costs related to contract performance, such as indirect labor, supplies, tools, repairs and depreciation costs. Contract material costs are included in incurred costs when the project materials have been purchased or moved to work-in-process as required by the project’s engineering design. Cost based input methods of revenue recognition require us to make estimates of costs to complete the projects. In making such estimates, significant judgment is required to evaluate assumptions related to the costs to complete the projects, including materials, labor, and other system costs. If the estimated total costs on any contract are greater than the net contract revenues, we recognize the entire estimated loss in the period the loss becomes known and can be reasonably estimated.
We have been engaged in the production and delivery of goods on a continual basis under contractual arrangements for many years. Historically, we have demonstrated an ability to accurately estimate total revenues and total expenses relating to our long-term contracts. However, there exist many inherent risks and uncertainties in estimating revenues, expenses, and progress toward completion, particularly on larger or longer-term contracts. If we do not estimate the total sales, related costs, and progress toward completion on such contracts, the estimated gross margins may be significantly impacted, or losses may need to be recognized in future periods. Any such resulting changes in margins or contract losses could be material to our results of operations and financial condition.
Long-Lived Assets
Long-lived assets consist primarily of property, plant and equipment. Long-lived assets are reviewed for impairment whenever events or circumstances indicate their carrying value may not be recoverable. When such events or circumstances arise, an estimate of the future undiscounted cash flows produced by the asset, or the appropriate grouping of assets, is compared to the asset’s carrying value to determine if impairment exists pursuant to the requirements of ASC 360-10-35, “Impairment or Disposal of Long-Lived Assets.” If the asset is determined to be impaired, the impairment loss is measured on the excess of it carrying value over its fair value. Assets to be disposed of are reported at the lower of their carrying value or net realizable value. It is not possible for us to predict the likelihood of any possible future impairments or, if such an impairment were to occur, the magnitude of any impairment.

| Item 4. | Controls and Procedures. |
Evaluation of Disclosure Controls and Procedures
We maintain a system of disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) and 13d-15(e) under the Exchange Act of 1934, as amended, (the “Exchange Act”)). As required by Rule 13a-15(b) under the Exchange Act, our management, under the direction of our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, reviewed and performed an evaluation of the effectiveness of design and operation of our disclosure controls and procedures (as defined in Rule 13a-15(e) under the Exchange Act) as of the end of the period covered by this Quarterly Report on Form 10-Q (the “Report”).
Based on that review and evaluation, our Chief Executive Officer and Chief Financial Officer, along with others in our management, have determined that as of the end of the period covered by this Report on Form 10-Q the disclosure controls and procedures were effective to provide reasonable assurance that such information is accumulated and communicated to our management, including our principal executive and financial officers, as appropriate to allow timely decisions regarding disclosures.
Changes in Internal Controls
There were no changes in our internal controls over financial reporting as defined in Rule 13a-15(f) or Rule 15d-15(f) under the Exchange Act that occurred during the most recent fiscal quarter that have materially affected, or are reasonably likely to materially affect, the internal controls over financial reporting.
Limitations on the Effectiveness of Controls
We believe that a control system, no matter how well designed and operated, cannot provide absolute assurance that the objectives of the control systems are met, and no evaluation of controls can provide absolute assurance that all control issues and instances of fraud, if any, within a company have been detected.
