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 and six months ended June 30, 2022 are not necessarily indicative of the results that can be expected for the year ending December 31, 2022.
The condensed consolidated balance sheet as of December 31, 2021 has been derived from the audited consolidated financial statements at such date, as filed on Form 10-K with the SEC on March 31, 2022, 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. In addition, 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 income (loss).
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES
Revenue Recognition
In accordance with FASB 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:
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Over time
The Company designs, manufactures and sells custom chemical vapor deposition equipment through contractual agreements. These system sales require the Company to deliver functioning equipment that is generally completed within three to eighteen months from commencement of order acceptance. The Company recognizes revenue from system sales over time by using an input method based on costs incurred as it depicts the Company’s 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. 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.
“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, the 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”.
NOTE 2: SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES (continued)
Recent Accounting Standards
In June 2016, the FASB issued Accounting Standard Update (“ASU”) 2016-13, Financial Instruments – Credit Losses (Topic 326), which require that financial assets measured at amortized cost be presented at the net amount expected to be collected. The allowance for credit losses is a valuation account that is deducted from the amortized cost basis of the financial asset to present the net carrying value at the amount expected to be collected. The income statement reflects the measurement of credit losses for newly recognized financial assets, as well as the increase or decreases of expected credit losses that have taken place during the period. The measurement of expected credit losses is based upon historical experience, current conditions, and reasonable and supportable forecasts that affect the collectability of the reported amount. On November 15, 2019, the FASB delayed the effective date for smaller reporting companies. The amendments in this update are now effective for fiscal years beginning after December 15, 2022 and interim periods within those annual periods. Management is currently evaluating the effect of this update on the Company’s consolidated financial statements and currently believes it should not have a material impact.
The Company believes there is no additional new accounting guidance adopted, but not yet effective that is relevant to the readers of its 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 sells products and services to various companies across several industries in the ordinary course of business. The Company performs ongoing credit evaluations to assess the probability of accounts receivable collection based on a number of factors, including past transaction experience, evaluation of their credit history and review of the invoicing terms of the contract to determine the financial strength of its customers. The Company also maintains allowances for anticipated losses. At June 30, 2022,

Judgment is required to evaluate assumptions including the amount of net contract revenues and the total estimated costs to determine our progress towards contract completion and to calculate the corresponding amount of revenue to recognize.
Changes in estimates for sales of systems occur for a variety of reasons, including but not limited to (i) build accelerations or delays, (ii) product cost forecast changes, (iii) cost related change orders or add-ons, or (iv) changes in other information used to estimate costs. Changes in estimates may have a material effect on the Company’s consolidated statements of operations.

NOTE 9: INCOME TAXES
As of June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021, the Company has provided a full valuation allowance against all of the net deferred tax assets. This was based on management’s assessment, including the last two years of operating losses, 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 deferred tax asset, which has been fully reserved for, on a quarterly basis, reviewing our economic models, including projections and timing of orders, and cost containment measures.
On March 27, 2020, the Coronavirus Aid, Relief and Economic Security Act (the “CARES Act”) was enacted by the United States Congress. As a result of the enactment of the CARES Act, net operating losses (“NOL’s”) generated in 2018-2020 could be carried back for five years and resulted in the Company recognizing approximately $
NOTE 10: EARNINGS PER SHARE
Basic earnings per share is computed by dividing net earnings available to common shareholders (the numerator) by the weighted average number of common shares outstanding (the denominator) for the period presented. The computation of diluted earnings per share is similar to basic earnings per share, except that the denominator is increased to include the number of additional common shares that would have been outstanding if the potentially dilutive common shares had been issued.
A reconciliation of basic to diluted shares used in the earnings per share calculation is as follows:
| Three months ended June 30, | Six months ended June 30, | |||||||||||||||
| 2022 | 2021 | 2022 | 2021 | |||||||||||||

| Diluted weighted average shares outstanding | ||||||||||||||||
NOTE 10: EARNINGS PER SHARE (continued)
The following table represents common stock equivalents that were excluded from the computation of diluted earnings per share for the three and six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, because the effect of their inclusion would be anti-dilutive.

Stock options to purchase
The dilutive potential common shares on options is calculated in accordance with the treasury stock method, which assumes that proceeds from the exercise of all options are used to repurchase common stock at market value. The number of shares remaining after the proceeds are exhausted represents the potential dilutive effect of the securities.
NOTE 11: SEGMENT REPORTING
The Company operates through segments: CVD Equipment (“CVD”), Stainless Design Concepts (“SDC”) and CVD Materials (“Materials”). The CVD segment manufactures and sells chemical vapor deposition equipment. SDC is the Company’s ultra-high purity manufacturing division for gas control systems. The Materials segment provides material coatings for aerospace, medical, electronic and other applications. The Company evaluates performance based on several factors, of which the primary financial measure is income (loss) before taxes.
The Company’s corporate administration activities are reported in the Eliminations and Unallocated column. These activities primarily include the elimination of intercompany sales and profit, expenses related to certain corporate officers and support staff, expenses related to the Company’s Board of Directors, stock option expense for shares granted to corporate administration employees, certain consulting expenses, investor and shareholder relations activities, and all of the Company’s legal, auditing and professional fees, and interest expense.

The Company has been actively monitoring the coronavirus (COVID-19) outbreak and resulting pandemic and its impact on both the global economic and operating environment and specifically on its impact to the Company, its employees, its operations and its financial condition. In March 2020, the World Health Organization recognized the COVID-19 outbreak as a pandemic based on the global spread of the disease, the severity of illnesses it causes and its effects on society. In response to the COVID-19 outbreak, the governments of many countries, states, cities and other geographic regions have taken preventative or protective actions, such as imposing restrictions on travel and business operations, including complete or partial government shutdowns of many schools and businesses, including the Company, and advising or requiring individuals to limit or forego their time outside of their homes. Accordingly, the COVID-19 outbreak (including the impact of the COVID Omicron variant) has severely restricted the level of economic activity in many countries, including the United States, and continues to materially and adversely impact global economic activity. In particular, the aerospace sector, for which the Company relies on a significant part of its business, has been faced with significant reductions to its business due to reduced long distance air travel which has negatively affected new order bookings and has materially and adversely affected the Company’s revenues to date.
Management is unable to predict the extent of the impact the pandemic will have on the Company’s financial position and operating results for the remainder of 2022 due to numerous uncertainties, but the impact could be material during any future period affected either directly or indirectly by this pandemic. The Company intends to continue to evaluate the various government-sponsored plans and programs put in place in response to the COVID-19 pandemic and further plans to take advantage of any such government benefits reasonably available to it. Moreover, the Company will continue to monitor developments in that area as new government initiatives are passed.
The COVID-19 pandemic has adversely impacted worldwide supply chains and the ability to obtain sufficient amounts of raw materials and component parts such as nickel and integrated circuits. Further, geopolitical developments across Europe and Asia have and may continue to restrict our ability to procure raw materials and components, as well as impact our ability to sell our products into China, Russia and other Eastern European and Asian regions. In addition, disruptions and delays in the ability of the Company’s third-party freight carriers to transport these items to the Company’s manufacturing facility also continues to be a challenge. During the third and fourth quarters of 2021, and into 2022, the Company experienced increased costs on certain components as well as delays in supply chain delivery, which has and may continue to impact its ability to recognize revenue and reduce the Company’s gross profit margins, as well as extend our manufacturing lead times and reduce its manufacturing efficiencies. We are also seeing the effects of the macroeconomic inflationary cost environment that has resulted in increased costs for labor and materials. The Company is now placing orders with more lead time to help mitigate the manufacturing delays, as well as assessing other suppliers or components to attempt to mitigate the potential cost impacts. In addition, the Company is utilizing its in-house flexible manufacturing to attempt to further mitigate both potential schedule delivery delays and material cost increase. While management has initiated actions to mitigate the potential negative impacts to our revenue and profitability, there can be no assurance of the ultimate impact and the length of time period that the supply chain factors may impact its revenues and profitability.

Known Trends and Uncertainties
We have been actively monitoring the coronavirus ("COVID-19") outbreak and its impact globally. Our primary focus to this point has been to ensure the health and safety of our employees. To that end, we have adopted social distancing practices where appropriate, implemented travel restrictions, and have taken actions to ensure that our facilities are cleaned and sanitized regularly. These are novel and challenging times and the magnitude of this crisis is requiring us to consider all options to promote the safety of employees, including, where appropriate, or where required to comply with foreign, national, state or local governmental authority recommendations, guidelines, and/or mandates, the temporary reduction or suspension of work at certain of our locations and production facilities to protect employees and curb the spread of the coronavirus. All of these factors have adversely impacted our operating results. In particular, the aerospace sector, for which we rely on for a significant part of our business, has been faced with significant reductions to its business due to reduced long distance air travel which has negatively affected new order bookings and has materially and adversely affected the Company’s revenues to date. Significant geopolitical developments across Europe and Asia (including the war in Ukraine) have and may continue to restrict our ability to procure raw materials and components such as nickel and integrated circuits, as well as impact our ability to sell our products into China, Russia and other Eastern European and Asian regions. We continue to be unable to predict the extent of the impact the pandemic will have on our financial position and operating results for the remainder of 2022 due to numerous uncertainties (including the impact of the COVID Omicron variant), supply chain disruptions, rising costs and the impact on the aerospace sector, but the impact could be material during any future period affected either directly or indirectly by this pandemic. The longer-term impacts from the pandemic are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted.

Three Months Ended June 30, 2022 versus June 30, 2021
Revenue
Our revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $5.8 million compared to $4.0 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $1.8 million or 44.0%. The increase in revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 versus the prior year period was primarily attributable to increased revenue of $2.0 million from the CVD Equipment segment related to equipment sales and spare parts, $.1 million from our SDC segment, offset, in part by, decreased revenue of $.3 million from the CVD Materials segment. Despite achieving an increase in sales of $1.8 million or 44.0% this quarter as compared to the prior year quarter, overall sales levels continue to be negatively impacted by the effects of the COVID-19 pandemic including delays in our supply chain delivery of components which impacts our ability to recognize revenue more timely. For the first and second quarter of 2022 revenue was $4.7 million and $5.8 million, respectively. As a result of the receipt of $12.6 million in new orders during the three months ended June 30, 2022, reduced by our revenue of $5.8 million in the same period, our order backlog at June 30, 2022 was $16.7 million as compared to $9.9 million at March 31, 2022, and $10.4 million at December 31, 2021. Historically, aerospace sales had represented as much as 60% of our total revenue, however, during the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 it represented approximately 9.1% and 19.2%, respectively. This is due to the on-going negative effect the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the aerospace sector, which resulted in reduced long distance air travel and the resultant reduction of industry aircraft engine sales.
The revenue contributed by the CVD Equipment segment for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $3.8 million, which totaled 65.2% of our overall revenue, and was 110.2% or $2.0 million higher than the segment’s $1.8 million contribution made in the three months ended June 30, 2021, which totaled 44.7% of our overall revenue. This revenue increase is the result of $2.3 million of increased equipment sales, the result of the Company’s increased new equipment orders in prior quarters, offset, in part by, a reduction of $.3 million in spare parts sales. While we achieved an increase in revenue during the period, the segment continues to be negatively impacted by the slowdown in aerospace demand due to COVID-19.
Revenue for our SDC segment was $1.2 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $1.1 million for the three months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $.1 million compared to 2021.
Revenues for our CVD Materials segment were $.8 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $1.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease of $.3 million was the result of reduced revenue in the amount of $.4 million related to our Tantaline products, offset, in part by, increased Mesoscribe revenue of $.1 million.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the three months ended June 30, 2022 was $1.4 million, with a gross profit margin of 24.8%, as compared to a gross profit of $1.0 million and a gross profit margin of 24.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in gross profit and gross profit margin was primarily the result of leveraging fixed costs on higher sales levels and product mix, which offset certain component cost increases and compensation costs. During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, we started to experience increased costs on certain components as well as delays in supply chain delivery, which also impacts revenue as well as manufacturing lead times and efficiencies. We are also seeing the effects of the macroeconomic inflationary cost environment that has resulted in increased costs for labor and materials. We have been placing orders with more lead time to help mitigate the manufacturing delays, as well as assessing other suppliers or components to attempt to mitigate the potential cost impacts. In addition, we are utilizing our in-house flexible manufacturing to attempt to further mitigate both potential schedule delivery delays and material cost increases. In late 2021, we initiated price increases on new quotations which we anticipate will mitigate our cost increases and we anticipate will benefit margins during 2022.
Research and Development
For the three months ended June 30 2022, research and development expenses were $569,194, or 9.8% of revenue as compared to $430,754, or 10.7% for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in 2022 was the result of increased employee-related costs.
General engineering support and expenses related to the development of more standard 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 costs of goods sold when work is performed directly on a customer order.
Selling
Selling expenses were $332,261 or 5.7% of the revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $229,147 or 5.7% of the revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in 2022 was primarily the result of increased personnel and employee related costs during the three months ended June 30, 2022, to support increased marketing efforts, as compared to June 30, 2021.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses for the three months ended June 30, 2022 were $1,396,506 or 24.0% of revenue as compared to $1,420,151 or 35.2% of revenue for the three months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $23,645 or 1.7% of revenue. The decrease in expenses is primarily due to costs in the three months ended June 30, 2021 to vacate the 555 Building and prepare the 355 Building for the consolidation of operations in the amount of $232,000, compared to none in 2022. In addition, costs decreased due to lower building operating costs as a result of the sale of the 555 Building in July 2021, and consolidation of our facilities into our 355 Building. Further, legal expenses decreased by $60,000 primarily due to higher costs in the three months ended June 30, 2021 related to governance, employee related matters and intellectual property. These savings were primarily offset by $105,000 of bad debt recovery in 2021, as compared to none in 2022, a $108,000 increase in foreign exchange loss primarily due to an intercompany loan, and net increased compensation, personnel and benefit costs during the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the prior year quarter.
Operating Loss
As a result of increased sales of $1.8 million and the increased gross profit margins of $.4 million, and increased operating expenses of $.2 million, our operating loss was $.9 million in the three months ended June 30 2022 compared with an operating loss of $1.1 million in the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Other Income
Other income was $18,268 and $2.6 million for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The gain on debt extinguishment for the three months ended June 30, 2021 was the result of forgiveness of the Company’s Paycheck Protection Program (the ”PPP”) loan in the amount of $2.4 million. There was no such gain in the three months ended June 30, 2022. Other income from subleasing a portion of our then 555 Building (which was sold on July 26, 2021) was $217,592 for the three months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to none in the three months ended June 30, 2022. As a result of our increased cash position from the sale of the 555 Building in July 2021, interest income increased $12,244, to $12,647 for the three months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $403 in 2021. In addition, interest expense related to the Company’s mortgages decreased $107,000 to $0 in the three months ended June 30, 2022, as the result of our 555 Building mortgage being satisfied on July 26, 2021 and the remaining mortgage on the 355 Building being satisfied on March 1, 2022. During the three months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized $5,621 in other income primarily from grants, net of the related expenses incurred.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the three months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, was $825 and $1,064, respectively, related to minimum state taxes. We continue to evaluate for potential utilization of our deferred tax asset, which has been fully reserved for, on a quarterly basis, by reviewing our economic models, including projections and timing of orders, cost containment measures and other factors.
Net (Loss) Income
As a result of the foregoing factors, we reported a net loss of $839,402 or $0.12 per basic and diluted share, for the three months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to net income of $1,470,425 (which includes a $2.4 million gain on debt extinguishment), or $0.22 per basic and diluted share for the three months ended June 30, 2021.
Six Months Ended June 30, 2022 versus. June 30, 2021
Revenue
Our revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $10.5 million compared to $7.4 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $3.1 million or 41.4%. The increase in revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 versus the prior year period was primarily attributable to increased revenue of $2.8 million from the CVD Equipment segment related to equipment sales and spare parts, a $.7 million increase in revenue from our SDC segment, offset, in part by, decreased revenue of $.4 million from the CVD Materials segment. Despite achieving a sales increase of $3.1 million or 41.4% during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the prior year period, overall sales levels continue to be negatively affected by the impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic. These impacts, including delays in our supply chain delivery of components, impacts our ability to recognize revenue more timely. Revenue for the three months ended March 31, 2022 and three months ended June 30, 2022 were $4.7 million and $5.8 million, respectively. Our order backlog at June 30, 2022 was approximately $16.7 million, an increase of $6.3 million as compared to December 31, 2021 of $10.4 million. This increase is due to the receipt of new orders in the first six months of 2022 of $16.7 million, reduced by revenue recognized of $10.5 million during the same period. Historically, aerospace sales had represented as much as 60% of our total revenue, however, during the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021 it represented approximately 11.7% and 20.1%, respectively. This is due to the on-going negative effects the COVID-19 pandemic has had on the aerospace sector, which resulted in reduced long distance travel and the resultant reduction of industry aircraft engine sales.
The revenue contributed by the CVD Equipment segment for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $6.6 million, which totaled 63.2% of our overall revenue, and was 73.7% or $2.8 million higher than the segment’s $3.8 million contribution made in the six months ended June 30, 2021, which totaled 51.5% of our overall revenue. This revenue increase is the result of increases of $2.7 million from equipment sales and $.1 million from spare parts sales. While we achieved revenue increases during the period, this segment continued to be impacted by the slowdown in aerospace demand due to the on-going negative effects of the COVID-19 pandemic.
Revenue for our SDC segment was $2.6 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $1.9 million for the six months ended June 30, 2021, an increase of $.7 million resulting from the receipt of one large order in 2022.
Revenues for our CVD Materials segment were $1.3 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to $1.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021. The decrease of $.4 million was the result of reduced revenue in the amount of $.5 million related to our Tantaline products, offset, in part by, increased Mesoscribe revenue of $.1 million.
Gross Profit
Gross profit for the six months ended June 30, 2022 was $2.2 million, with a gross profit margin of 21.1%, as compared to a gross profit of $1.4 million and a gross profit margin of 19.5% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in gross profit and gross profit margin was primarily the result of leveraging fixed costs on higher sales levels and higher margin product mix, which more than offset certain component cost increases and compensation costs. During the quarter ended September 30, 2021, we started to experience increased costs on certain components as well as delays in supply chain delivery, which also impacts revenue as well as manufacturing lead times and efficiencies. We are also seeing the effects of the macroeconomic inflationary cost environment that has resulted in increased costs for labor and materials. We have been placing orders with more lead time to help mitigate the manufacturing delays, as well as assessing other suppliers or components to attempt to mitigate the potential cost impacts. In addition, we are utilizing our in-house flexible manufacturing to attempt to further mitigate both potential schedule delivery delays and material cost increases. In late 2021, we initiated price increases on new quotations which we anticipate will mitigate our cost increases and we anticipate will benefit margins during 2022.
Research and Development
For the six months ended June 30, 2022, research and development expenses were $879,401, or 8.4% of revenue as compared to $741,708, or 10.0% for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in 2022 was the result of increased employee-related costs.
General engineering support and expenses related to the development of more standard 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 costs of goods sold when work is performed directly on a customer order.
Selling
Selling expenses were $604,940 or 5.8% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $364,902 or 4.9% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021. The increase in 2022 was primarily the result of increased personnel and employee related costs during the six months ended June 30, 2022, to support increased marketing efforts, as compared to June 30, 2021.
General and Administrative
General and administrative expenses for the six months ended June 30, 2022 were $2,589,955 or 24.8% of revenue as compared to $3,036,535 or 41.0% of revenue for the six months ended June 30, 2021, a decrease of $448,105 or 14.8%. The decrease in expenses is primarily due to costs in the six months ended June 30, 2021 to vacate the 555 Building and prepare the 355 Building for the consolidation of operations in the amount of $232,000, as compared to none in 2022. In addition, other costs decreased due to lower building operating costs as a result of the sale of the 555 Building in July 2021, and consolidation of our facilities into our 355 Building. Further, legal expenses decreased by $266,000 primarily due to higher costs in the six months ended June 30, 2021, of which $100,000 was related to the preparation of the sale of the 555 Building, and the balance was related to general corporate governance, employee related matters and intellectual property. These savings were partially offset by $105,000 of bad debt recovery in 2021, as compared to none in 2022, a $142,000 increase in foreign exchange loss primarily due to an intercompany loan, and net increased compensation, personnel and benefit costs during the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to the six month period ended June 30, 2021.
Operating Loss
As a result of increased sales of $3.1 million and the increased gross profit margins of $.8 million, and reduced operating expenses of $.1 million, our operating loss was $1.9 million in the six months ended June 30 2022 compared with an operating loss of $2.7 million in the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Other Income
Other income was $31,206 and $2.7 million for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively. The gain on debt extinguishment for the six months ended June 30, 2021 was the result of forgiveness of the Company’s PPP loan in the amount of $2.4 million. There was no such gain in the three months ended June 30, 2022. Other income from subleasing a portion of our then 555 Building (which was sold on July 26, 2021) was $436,827 for the six months ended June 30, 2021 as compared to none in the six months ended June 30, 2022. As a result of our increased cash position from the sale of the 555 Building in July 2021, interest income increased to $30,929 for the six months ended June 30, 2022 as compared to $1,626 in 2021. In addition, interest expense related to the Company’s mortgages was $5,344 and $214,221 in the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, respectively, as the result of our 555 Building mortgage being satisfied on July 26, 2021, and the remaining mortgage on the 355 Building being satisfied on March 1, 2022. During the six months ended June 30, 2022, we recognized $5,621 in other income primarily from grants, net of the related expenses incurred.
Income Taxes
Income tax expense for the six months ended June 30, 2022 and 2021, was $825 and $1,064, respectively, related to minimum state taxes. We continue to evaluate for potential utilization of our deferred tax asset, which has been fully reserved for, on a quarterly basis, by reviewing our economic models, including projections and timing of orders, cost containment measures and other factors.
Net loss
As a result of the foregoing factors, we reported a net loss of $1,836,742 or $0.27 per basic and diluted share, for the six months ended June 30, 2022, as compared to a net loss of $35,125 (which includes a $2.4 million gain on debt extinguishment), or $0.01 per basic and diluted share for the six months ended June 30, 2021.
Liquidity and Capital Resources
As of June 30, 2022, we had aggregate working capital of $15.0 million compared to aggregate working capital of $16.7 million at December 31, 2021. Our cash and cash equivalents at June 30, 2022 and December 31, 2021 were $12.2 million and $16.7 million, respectively.
Net cash used in operating activities was $2.2 million. This is primarily the result of our net loss, adjusted for non-cash items, of $1.3 million, and increases in accounts receivable, contract assets and contract liabilities due to our increase in revenue, as well as increased inventory to support increased orders and our efforts to mitigate further supply chain impacts.
Capital expenditures were $.5 million in the six months ended June 30, 2022 related to purchases of manufacturing equipment to allow for more efficient manufacturing and improved control of our supply chain.
We had a loan agreement with HSBC USA, N.A. (the “HSBC”) which was secured by a mortgage on our Central Islip headquarters at 355 South Technology Drive. The loan was payable in 120 consecutive equal monthly installments of $25,000 in principal plus interest and a final balloon payment upon maturity on March 1, 2022. According to the terms of the agreement the loan was satisfied on March 1 2022 resulting in total debt repayments of $1.8 million during the six months ended June 30, 2022.
The COVID-19 pandemic has resulted in extended shutdowns of certain businesses in the United States and around the world. We have been actively monitoring the COVID-19 pandemic and its impact globally. Our primary focus to this point has been to ensure the health and safety of our employees. To that end, we have adopted social distancing where appropriate, implemented travel restrictions, and we have taken actions to ensure that locations and facilities are cleaned and sanitized regularly. These are novel and challenging times and the magnitude of this crisis is requiring us to consider all options to promote the safety of employees, including, where appropriate, or where required to comply with foreign, national, state or local governmental authority recommendations, guidelines, and/or mandates, the temporary reduction or suspension of work at certain of the Company’s locations and production facilities to protect employees and curb the spread of the coronavirus. All of these actions have adversely impacted our operating results. In particular, our aerospace sector, for which we rely on a significant part of our business, has been faced with significant reductions to its business due to reduced long distance air travel which has negatively affected new order bookings and has materially and adversely affected the Company’s revenues to date. We continue to be unable to predict the extent of the impact the pandemic will have on our financial position and operating results for the remainder of 2022 due to numerous uncertainties (including the impact of the COVID Omicron variant), supply chain disruptions, rising costs and the impact on the aerospace sector, but the impact could be material during any future period affected either directly or indirectly by this pandemic. The longer-term impacts from the pandemic are highly uncertain and cannot be predicted. Our return to profitability is dependent upon, among other things, the receipt of new equipment orders, the lessening of the ongoing effects of COVID-19 on our business and the aerospace market, improvement in the operations of the materials business, as well as managing planned capital expenditures and operating expenses.
Based upon all of these factors, 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 to eighteen months of the filing of this Form 10-Q. Should the current environment continue longer or worsen, we will continue to assess our operations and take actions anticipated to maintain our operating cash to support the working capital needs.
Item 3. Quantitative and Qualitative Disclosures About Market Risk
Not applicable.
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.
