Item 4.01Changes in Registrant’s Certifying Accountant.
(a)The Audit Committee (the “Audit Committee”) of the Board of Directors of the Company recently completed a competitive selection process to determine the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for its 2024 fiscal year, beginning with the quarter ending January 31, 2024. The Audit Committee considered several public accounting firms and, as a result of this process, the Audit Committee approved a change of the Company’s independent registered public accounting firms for its 2024 fiscal year and, on September 5, 2023, notified RSM US LLP (“RSM”), the Company’s current independent registered public accounting firm, of its dismissal as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm, effective immediately following RSM’s completion of the audit of the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2023. Upon completion of RSM’s services, the Company will file an amendment to this Current Report on Form 8-K with the specific date of dismissal and an update to the disclosures required by Item 304(a) of Regulation S-K through that date.
The audit reports of RSM on the Company’s consolidated financial statements for the Company’s fiscal years ended October 31, 2021 and 2022, did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion and were not qualified or modified as to uncertainty, audit scope, or accounting principles.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended October 31, 2021 and 2022, and the subsequent interim period through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, there were no disagreements (within the meaning of Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) between the Company and RSM on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement disclosure, or auditing scope or procedures, which disagreements, if not resolved to the satisfaction of RSM, would have caused RSM to make reference to the subject matter of the disagreements in connection with RSM’s reports on the Company’s financial statements.
During the Company’s fiscal years ended October 31, 2021 and 2022, and the subsequent interim period through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, there were no “reportable events” (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).
The Company has provided RSM with a copy of the foregoing disclosures. A letter from RSM stating its agreement with such disclosures is attached as Exhibit 16.1 to this report.
(b)Following the completion of its competitive process noted above, on September 5, 2023, the Audit Committee notified Deloitte & Touche LLP (“Deloitte”) of its formal decision to engage Deloitte as the Company’s independent registered public accounting firm for the fiscal year ending October 31, 2024, effective beginning with the review of the Company’s condensed consolidated financial statements for the fiscal quarter ending January 31, 2024, and subject to completion of Deloitte’s customary client acceptance procedures. During the Company’s fiscal years ended October 31, 2021 and 2022, and the subsequent interim period through the date of this Current Report on Form 8-K, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf consulted Deloitte with respect to (i) the application of accounting principles to a specified transaction, either completed or proposed, or the type of audit opinion that might be rendered on the Company’s financial statements, and no written report was provided to the Company or oral advice was provided that Deloitte concluded was an important factor considered by the Company in reaching a decision as to the accounting, auditing or financial reporting issue, or (ii) any matter that was either the subject of a disagreement (as defined in Item 304(a)(1)(iv) of Regulation S-K and related instructions) or a “reportable event” (as described in Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K).

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE

HURCO REPORTS THIRD QUARTER RESULTS FOR FISCAL YEAR 2023
INDIANAPOLIS, INDIANA – September 8, 2023 -- Hurco Companies, Inc. (Nasdaq: HURC) today reported results for the third fiscal quarter ended July 31, 2023. Hurco recorded net income of $260,000, or $0.04 per diluted share, for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023, compared to net income of $1,238,000, or $0.18 per diluted share, for the corresponding period in fiscal year 2022. For the nine months of fiscal year 2023, Hurco reported net income of $1,967,000, or $0.30 per diluted share, compared to net income of $6,802,000, or $1.01 per diluted share, for the corresponding period in fiscal year 2022.
Sales and service fees for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 were $53,201,000, a decrease of $4,439,000, or 8%, compared to the corresponding prior year period, and included a favorable currency impact of $579,000, or 1%, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. Sales and service fees for the nine months of fiscal year 2023 were $161,702,000, a decrease of $25,650,000, or 14%, compared to the corresponding prior year period, and included an unfavorable currency impact of $4,113,000, or 2%, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes.
Greg Volovic, Chief Executive Officer, stated, “This quarter we saw softening conditions in the key machine tool markets in the world (U.S., China, and Germany). In contrast, smaller European markets like Italy, the United Kingdom and France achieved higher sales with the benefit of a strong mix of higher-performance VMX and five-axis machine sales. We experienced improved orders and sales of Milltronics machines in Europe, a market we are focused on growing, and increased sales of electromechanical components and accessories manufactured by LCM. Our highest priority is to focus on reducing inventory levels and generating higher levels of cash flow for the rest of the year as we adjust production to changing levels of demand. We remain patient and poised for the markets to recover with a plan for new products and a strong balance sheet that will allow us to continue our investment in the best technology for our customers.”
The following table sets forth net sales and service fees by geographic region for the third fiscal quarter and nine months ended July 31, 2023, and 2022 (dollars in thousands):
| Three Months Ended | | Nine Months Ended | ||||||
| July 31, | | July 31, | ||||||
| 2023 | 2022 | $ Change | % Change | | 2023 | 2022 | $ Change | % Change |
Americas | $18,272 | $23,736 | ($5,464) | (23)% | | $58,609 | $70,154 | ($11,545) | (16)% |
Europe | 31,162 | 28,932 | 2,230 | 8% | | 89,745 | 93,932 | (4,187) | (4)% |
Asia Pacific | 3,767 | 4,972 | (1,205) | (24)% | | 13,348 | 23,266 | (9,918) | (43)% |
Total | $53,201 | $57,640 | ($4,439) | (8)% | | $161,702 | $187,352 | ($25,650) | (14)% |
Sales in the Americas for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal year 2023 decreased by 23% and 16%, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in fiscal year 2022, primarily due to decreased shipments of Hurco and Milltronics machines, particularly the higher-performance VMX machines.
European sales for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 increased by 8%, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2022, and included a favorable currency impact of 2%, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. The increase in European sales was primarily attributable to an increased volume of shipments and improved mix of higher-performance Hurco VMX and five-axis machines in Italy and France, increased European sales of Milltronics machines, and increased sales of electro-mechanical components and accessories manufactured by our wholly owned subsidiary, LCM Precision Technology S.r.l. (“LCM”). Additionally, while the volume of machine sales in the third quarter did not increase year-over-year in the United Kingdom, overall sales in dollars in the U.K. increased due to an improved mix of higher-performance VMX machines.
European sales for the nine months of fiscal year 2023 decreased by 4%, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2022, and included an unfavorable currency impact of 3%, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. The year-over-year decrease in European sales was primarily attributable to a decreased volume of shipments of Hurco machines in Germany, France, and Italy, partially offset by increased sales of higher-performance Hurco VMX machines in the United Kingdom, increased European sales of Milltronics machines, and increased sales of electro-mechanical components and accessories manufactured by LCM.
Asian Pacific sales for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal year 2023 decreased by 24% and 43%, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in fiscal year 2022, and included an unfavorable currency impact of 3% and 4%, respectively, when translating foreign sales to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. The decreases in Asian Pacific sales in both periods primarily resulted from a reduced volume of shipments of Hurco and Takumi machines in China, Southeast Asia, and India.
Orders for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 were $42,082,000, a decrease of $10,800,000, or 20%, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2022, and included a favorable currency impact of $1,064,000, or 2%, when translating foreign orders to U.S. dollars. Orders for the nine months of fiscal year 2023 were $155,535,000, a decrease of $27,060,000, or 15%, compared to the corresponding period in fiscal year 2022, and included an unfavorable currency impact of $4,024,000, or 2%, when translating foreign orders to U.S. dollars.
The following table sets forth new orders booked by geographic region for the third fiscal quarter and nine months ended July 31, 2023, and 2022 (dollars in thousands):
| Three Months Ended | | Nine Months Ended | ||||||
| July 31, | | July 31, | ||||||
| 2023 | 2022 | $ Change | % Change | | 2023 | 2022 | $ Change | % Change |
Americas | $14,607 | $21,652 | ($7,045) | (33)% | | $56,548 | $68,189 | ($11,641) | (17)% |
Europe | 24,752 | 26,429 | (1,677) | (6)% | | 87,632 | 94,964 | (7,332) | (8)% |
Asia Pacific | 2,723 | 4,801 | (2,078) | (43)% | | 11,355 | 19,442 | (8,087) | (42)% |
Total | $42,082 | $52,882 | ($10,800) | (20)% | | $155,535 | $182,595 | ($27,060) | (15)% |
Orders in the Americas for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal year 2023 decreased by 33% and 17%, respectively, compared to the corresponding periods in fiscal year 2022. The decreases in orders in both periods were primarily due to decreased customer demand for Hurco and Milltronics machines, particularly higher-performance VMX and five-axis machines.
European orders for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 decreased by 6%, compared to the corresponding prior year period, and included a favorable currency impact of 4%, when translating foreign orders to U.S. dollars. The decrease in orders was driven primarily by decreased customer demand for Hurco machines in Germany and Italy, partially offset by increased customer demand for Hurco machines in France, Milltronics machines in Europe and electro-mechanical components and accessories manufactured by LCM. Additionally, while the volume of machine orders in the third quarter of fiscal 2023 did not increase year-over-year in the United Kingdom, overall orders in dollars in the U.K. increased due to an improved mix of higher-performance VMX and five-axis machines.
European orders for the nine months of fiscal year 2023 decreased by 8%, compared to the corresponding prior year period, and included an unfavorable currency impact of 4%, when translating foreign orders to U.S. dollars. The decrease in orders was driven primarily by decreased customer demand for Hurco machines in Germany and France, partially offset by increased customer demand for higher-performance Hurco VMX machines in the United Kingdom and Italy, and for electro-mechanical components and accessories manufactured by LCM.
Asian Pacific orders for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal year 2023 decreased by 43% and 42%, respectively, compared to the corresponding prior year periods, and included an unfavorable currency impact of less than 1% and 3%, respectively, when translating foreign orders to U.S. dollars. The reduction in Asian Pacific orders in both periods was driven primarily by a decrease in customer demand for Hurco and Takumi machines in China, India, and Southeast Asia.
Gross profit for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 was $13,448,000, or 25% of sales, compared to $14,399,000, or 25% of sales, for the corresponding prior year period. Gross profit for the nine months of fiscal year 2023 was $38,749,000, or 24% of sales, compared to $46,908,000, or 25% of sales, for the corresponding prior year period. The year-over-year decreases in gross profit in both periods were primarily due to the lower volume of sales of vertical milling machines and the negative impact of fixed costs on lower sales and production volumes. Gross profit as a percentage of sales for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal 2023 was relatively unchanged year-over year despite the reduced volume, as sales reflected an increased mix of higher-performance VMX and five-axis machines sold in Europe.
Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the third quarter of fiscal year 2023 were $12,436,000, or 23% of sales, compared to $12,647,000, or 22% of sales, in the corresponding fiscal year 2022 period, and included an unfavorable currency impact of $81,000, when translating foreign expenses to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. Selling, general, and administrative expenses for the nine months of fiscal year 2023 were $35,512,000, or 22% of sales, compared to $36,859,000, or 20% of sales, in the corresponding fiscal year 2022 period, and included a favorable currency impact of $739,000, when translating foreign expenses to U.S. dollars for financial reporting purposes. The year-over-year decreases in selling, general and administrative expenses in absolute dollar terms in both periods were primarily attributable to lower costs related to sales commissions, marketing and tradeshow expenses, and employee support costs for the global operations.
The effective tax rates for the third quarter and nine months of fiscal year 2023 were 60% and 40%, respectively, compared to 28% and 31% in each of the respective corresponding prior year periods. The year-over-year increases in the effective tax rates were primarily due to changes in geographic mix of income and loss that includes jurisdictions with differing tax rates, discrete items related to stock compensation and the impact of valuation allowances for our China operations combined with lower levels of consolidated income before taxes.
Cash and cash equivalents totaled $41,030,000 at July 31, 2023, compared to $63,922,000 at October 31, 2022. Working capital was $198,120,000 at July 31, 2023, compared to $194,733,000 at October 31, 2022. The increase in working capital was primarily driven by increases in inventories, net and prepaid and other assets and decreases in accounts payable and accrued payroll and employee benefits, partially offset by decreases in cash and cash equivalents and accounts receivable, net.
